5 Steps to speak a new language (Hung Q. Pham)

CHAPTER 10 (Other Techniques for You to Accelerate)

 “Action is the foundational key to all success.” - PABLO PICASSO

Learn continuously and intensively

Learning a new language is like riding a bicycle up a slope. When it comes to learning a new language, intensiveness is a very important factor that determines your efficiency. If you lose your focus, you will not be able to retain the words and phrases you have learned. To avoid this, you should have a goal, make a plan and discipline yourself to work on the plan on a daily basis.

Smile before every learning session

David Brooks, the 1990 world champion of public speaking, said: “When you smile, you relax – When you relax, you learn”.

The good news is you can use some physical and psychological tactics to have a positive state of mind. Below are a number of tactics that I frequently use:

·         Listen to baroque music and relax yourself before a learning session. Baroque music has a very positive impact on your mind. It can help you relax and concentrate more.

·         Think of your goal and your reason why you want to learn the language before a learning session.

·         Talk to yourself positively. Tell yourself: “I am very smart!” or “I am a great Chinese speaker! (Of course, only if you are learning Chinese!)”.

Immerse yourself in an environment full of the new language

1.      Set listening material as your alarm tone

The very first minutes after you wake up every morning have a big impact on your mood, emotion and momentum. If you want to have a sad day, listen to sad music as you wake up. If you want to have a day of anxiety and worry, read those rubbish 120 news about robbing and killing. If you wish to develop your new language, start your day accordingly.

2.      Read an article written in your target language when you get up

If you are like me who has the habit of grabbing the favorite newspaper before going to work, try to replace it by another one written in the new language.

3.       Use your computer in your target language

Most of us today spend a huge amount of time on our computers. If you are using Windows or Macintosh in your mother tongue version, switch to a version in your target language.

4.      Watch TV channels in the new language

It is not too hard today to enjoy TV channels from almost any country in the world. You have plenty of choices—cable TV, digital TV, satellite TV… Remove every channel that speaks your mother tongue.

5.      Proactively join online forums in the target language

When you do so, please note that you need to select those forums whose members are native speakers.

6.      If you play a computer game, use the version in your target language

 This is a very powerful tool for you to develop your new language. When you play, you have a chance to get involved in the new language context. Most games include sounds, conversations and text, which can help you practice your reading and listening skills.

7.      Make friends with native speakers in your home town

If you are learning one of the more common languages, such as French, Chinese, Spanish…, chances are that there might be native speakers living in your home town.
