5 Language Learning Exercises to Start Today

Hitting every key component on a daily basis

Welcome, aspiring polyglot! As we are over halfway through this year I wanted to take this opportunity to give you all some exercises to take your language acquisition to the next level. It can be easy to fall into the trap of repeating the same few things and hoping the progress they have experienced thus far will remain consistent. This can, unfortunately, lead to frustration as the inevitable plateau arrives. If that sounds like something you have experienced, this will be perfect to get you back on the right path.

1. Reading

Going out of your way to try and read things outside your purported language level is a powerful way to improve your language skills. Sitting down and going slowly page by page, writing down every new word and phrase you learn is time consuming, but it works wonders. Start with single pages and see how far you can work up. You will be shocked at how quickly you reach a point where you are only looking up a few words on every page.
