The Overlooked Secret: The Right Tools Make or Break Your Language Learning Journey How crucial is your method of learning? Spoiler: It's more important than you think. When it comes to learning a new language, the tools you use matter far more than any so-called "innate ability." Choosing the wrong tools can make you believe you lack the talent to learn a new language (which is nonsense).

How to Learn Foreign Vocabulary Method 1 – Rote and Rehearsal

How to Learn Foreign Vocabulary Method 1 – Rote and Rehearsal

Build vocabulary the No 1 way? No way! Building vocabulary has always been an ordeal for many learners. Long lists of words...trying to somehow memorize them with brute force and repetition...but your mind starts swimming with all the information and you start to tire.... then you test yourself and find that the new information just won’t stick...so you repeat the process. You become more tired and before long, your mind starts to shut down. You feel deflated, demotivated and just plain exhausted. So much effort and so little reward. Rote learning from lists is still the No 1 method for learning vocabulary and, believe it [...]

The secret ingredient to be brilliant. You can be fluent in a second language too So often people make things look easy. Great sports people, dancers, singers all make their art look like a walk in the park...and so do people who have mastered a second language (I am talking of bilinguals who were not brought up with a second language at home). You can find yourself gawping at them and their ability to converse fluently in different languages while you stumble to put together a single coherent sentence ... and you wonder how [...]

How to get reluctant MFL students learning

Getting students to WANT to learn languages. A change of approach changes attitudes. Teaching some students a language can be a challenge For MFL teachers the aim is to get their students to learn a second language. Hook or by crook. It is natural then for teachers to want to explain why learning a language is so important. The problem is that, although learning a language bestows huge benefits on the learner, some students seem impervious to persuasion and are, well, just not interested - and no amount of persuasion will move them. Many teachers [...]

Best ways to build vocabulary in a foreign language We learned new words through Discovery Learning I am pretty sure that none of us had parents who, when we were very young, gave us lists of words to learn by next week. What generally happened is that we would point at something that we wanted to know the name of, such as a dog, and our parents said "Dog" and we repeated "Dog".

Language Games prove their value KLOO's Race to Madrid to learn Spanish A well designed game can simulate real life. Monopoly simulates the property market while flight simulators let pilots play at flying a plane before they are let loose on a real one. There are even war games. Countries don't want to gain experience of war by going to war - so they simulate it. Simulation is a fancy word for "make believe" (as my children call it). It's an elaborate game. Turning language into a game I have worked with games [...]
