the path to fluency

there is no perfect method for learning a language. but, I would argue that there is a perfect path and it’s the one that you all walked when you learnt your native language. babies learn languages better than anyone and they neither read first nor do they check the dictionary. why is this THE perfect path to fluency? because the skills are intertwined, meaning mastering one makes you master the one that follows and so on. let me break it down to you:

step One
step One

listening

the first rule in communications is to be a good listener. this also applies to language learning. how can you speak a language that you’ve never heard before? this step allows you to acquire the language through input. no need to understand anything you hear, you just focus on the rhythm of the language (sound, intonation). the more you listen, the more your ears get acquainted with the language. remember, babies hear their family speak for up to two years before they start forming sounds and pronouncing words.

speaking

the more you listen, the better you speak. the speaking skill is directly related to listening. developing a great listening skill is THE way to improve your pronunciation and acquire an accent. Speaking always comes second in the process of learning a new language. it’s important to spend a certain amount of time on the listening skill without speaking from the get-go. you will gradually build your confidence by practicing by yourself or with your teacher before challenging yourself with native speakers or an audience.

reading

No, reading is not for advanced learners only. you can start reading short texts, graded readers right at the beginning of your journey. reading in your target language(s) summarizes everything you have learnt up until now. it is a way to review the vocabulary and grammatical structures in context. you build confidence as you come out of your comfort zone to read in a language you are not quite familiar with, yet. and last but not least, you increase your reading comprehension skill.

writing

the more you read, the better you write. the writing skill is directly related to the writing. developing a great reading comprehension skill allows you to improve your writing. you acquire complex vocabulary and grammatical structures in context. you apply all your knowledge and learn the different writing styles through the texts, novels or articles that you read. the goal here is to find the appropriate style and tone that fits your targeted audience in the language.

learn languages
like a polyglot

from scratch to fluent

For me, language learning is a passion. It is to me what basketball is to Michael Jordan, swimming to Pan Zhan Le or running to Usain Bolt. As a polyglot, I only speak for myself here and share my journey the way I feel about it. My happiness and mental stability depend on language learning, because it is linked to one of my biggest dreams: be a professional linguist at the United Nations. I will share with you every single step, from my first words in English (first foreign language that I have ever learnt), to my debut in German, Korean, Japanese and Russian. Let’s work this challenging journey together, and remember: never give up!
