Languages are and will always be a part of our life. Even during the stone age , humans didn't have a language to communicate but they sure did know how to express their views, opinions and emotions. Which is ultimately the main purpose of all the languages.
Currently I know 2 languages apart from English . But one thing that always intrigued me was to learn a foreign language, not just as a hobby but also because learning a new language has a lot of benefits.
So after a research, I got to know that Spanish is not only widely spoken across the world, but is comparatively an easy language to learn. So I decided to start learning SPANISH.
Why should you learn a new language?
3. Enhances The Ability To Multi-Task
5. Keeps The Mind Sharper For Longer
6. Enhances Decision-Making
7. The First Language Is Improved
8. Improves Performance In Other Academic Areas
Let's talk about my experience and problems I faced
There are a ton of YouTube videos but it lacks organization and it was too overwhelming for me.
So I asked people on the internet and got to know about Doulingo app where you can learn tons of languages for free.
I downloaded the app and started learning Spanish
Initially it was difficult to grasp and learn and this made me procrastinate a lot. I could hardly complete 10 lessons a month.
Finally , I decided to be serious about it and start small with one lesson everyday.
That's when I got into the habit of learning. For 15-20 days,I just completed one lesson a day and after that I was not only interested in doing more, but used to eagerly wait to learn.
This went on for 30-45 days and I even completed my very first streak of 30days😭.
After 45 days..I got bored and I lost interest. Doing the same thing everyday didn't work for me and I needed much more stimulus.
Currently I am still searching for other platforms to learn and if you have suggestions do let me know!
If you have any further suggestions , do let me know in Comments and also how many languages do you know?
