There are many ways to learn to speak a new language, however practice is essential in any method you use, and particularly important with a hard or difficult language. While you may learn some basics by setting aside just a few minutes each day, being confident enough to have conversations in a different language may take longer depending on how much time you have to devote to study and practice .

Here’s how you might incorporate language learning into your daily routine.

LEARNING A NEW LANGUAGE THROUGH ONLINE SELF STUDY

Searching online and finding a few phrases isn’t too difficult, but is not a particularly effective method for learning to speak a new language confidently. There is also no feedback on your pronunciation so you may struggle to be understood by native speakers.

LANGUAGE LEARNING APPS AND SOFTWARE

Language learning programs such as Rosetta Stone’s award-winning mobile app and software are designed to teach you a new language through immersive methods that combine audio and visual cues with vocabulary acquisition for contextualized learning. And with the Rosetta Stone mobile app, you can learn a new language anytime, anywhere with a program that syncs across devices, no matter how hard you may think it will be.

LEARN IN A CLASSROOM

Learning your new language in a classroom is a traditional approach to language learning. However, there is a large time commitment and frequently significant cost. Online learning programs offer ease of engagement and consistency at a fraction of the cost.

USE IMMERSION TECHNIQUES TO SPEED YOUR LEARNING

Immersing yourself in a language is one of the best ways to accelerate your understanding. This is particularly helpful in a difficult language to learn. Find a podcast if possible, and listen to it in the car on your commute to your job. Hearing the pronunciations and being exposed to the cultural nuances can help you pick up a difficult language more quickly even if you don’t understand all that is being said.

FIND A PARTNER

One of the best ways to get a deeper understanding of the language and receive plenty of practice with having conversations is to partner up with someone. It may be hard to find someone if you are choosing a difficult language to learn. But Rosetta Stone has an online community of language learners enabling you to find other speakers to practice with and a new world of conversational opportunities.

How many hours should I practice typing a day?

Practising 'little and often' (15 -30 minutes a day) works much better than an hour or more once a week. If you practise regularly and don't give up, you should be able to learn to touch type fluently in 2-3 months, maybe even less. A total of 10 – 15 hours of practice should get you touch typing slowly.

typeandtest.com - How long will it take for me to learn to touch type?

It depends on a number of factors, for example how long you have been using a keyboard and how long have you been typing using your current method. The amount of time you spend practising in the Typequick course and how frequently you practise is also significant. Practising ‘little and often’ (15 -30 minutes a day) works much better than an hour or more once a week. If you practise regularly and don’t give up, you should be able to learn to touch type fluently in 2-3 months, maybe even less. A total of 10 – 15 hours of practice should get you touch typing slowly. Once you are touch typing, spend time practising in Typequick’s speed and accuracy challenges to increase your performance. Once you have learned to touch type with Typequick, switch over to your new touch-typing skill as soon as you can in your everyday use of the computer and stick with it, even if at first you think you are slower than when typing your old way. It won’t take long before your speed and accuracy increases and you reap the benefits from your newly developed skill.
