Effective Language Learning Strategies

1. Spaced Repetition

Use apps like Anki or Memrise to review vocabulary at optimal intervals for long-term retention.

Tip: 5-10 minutes daily is better than 1 hour weekly

2. Comprehensible Input

Engage with content slightly above your level (books, shows, podcasts) to naturally acquire grammar.

Resources: Netflix Language Learning, LingQ

3. Active Production

Practice speaking from day one, even if just talking to yourself or recording voice memos.

Tools: HelloTalk, Tandem, iTalki

4. Immersion Techniques

Change your phone/computer language, think in your target language, label household items.

Daily Habit: Journal 3 sentences daily

Which skill should I focus on first?

Prioritize listening and vocabulary first - understanding spoken language accelerates all other skills. Speaking comes next, then reading/writing.
