Re:Your strategies for learning a new language
I study French and Chinese. I agree that they are not that easy languages to study but if there is a will, there is a way. Of course learning grammar and vocabulary is very important but to master a language you need speak and listen to it a lot. As for me, I watch short movies, cartoons, listen to songs. Also my French teacher is French and my Chinese teacher is Chinese. So you need to make friends who are natives as well and practice with them the languages you study a lot.

Re:Your strategies for learning a new language
i usually study on my own, using a few apps here and there. it is also helpful if you find someone who is studying the same language, and for you two to find time to study together. i have a friend that i know quite well who is studying japanese, and we see eachother almost everyday (we go to the same school), and we both study together during our lunch. otherwise, finding textbooks on how to learn the language you’d like is helpful as well. i haven’t personally done it, burn mt previously mentioned friend has, and it helped them a lot. also, there are a few helpful apps out there that i’ve found that have helped a ton. the most useful one for me personally is called “Memrise”, and i highly suggest it. flash cards help me a lot since memorization is quite easy for me, but there are lots of other studying tips out there, just find one that works best for you.

Re:Re:Your strategies for learning a new language
I think that reading a lot helps to improve your cognitive skills. After acquiring a reasonable range of words you may try to do audio listening of dialogues and later start to communicate with someone from the other side of the world via any convenient medium.
Look beyond your horizon and think globally not just glocally.
Have a nice day everyone.
