Je découvre votre canal et vous remercie Zoé pour l'excellence de vos interventions, celle-ci proposant une méthodique précise, bien structurée et personnalisable. Je suis bilingue F/D, et ai appris l'allemand plus vite en travaillant en usine et en vivant en collocation avec des Allemands qu'en étudiant à l'école - l'enseignement était à l'époque un désastre. J'étudie le russe à l'université à Minsk, et ai fait plus de progrès en anglais, la langue commune des expats. Je parviens à comprendre 2 Australiens de Brisbane parlant de foot, ce qui ne faisait pourtant pas partie du but recherché. Par contre je patine en russe et ne parviens pas à dépasser le plateau de A2 et peine toujours à comprendre les employés de banque ou des administrations, bien que j'écoute activement chaque jour les podcasts en russe. Avez-vous un tuyau pour franchir cet écueil sur lequel les déferlantes quotidiennes viennent frapper de plein fouet les esprits les plus motivés ? Was die slavischen Sprachen anbelangt, bzw die Russische, bin ich mir da nicht so sicher, dass die TPRS Methode angewendet werden kann, ohne sich vorher eine solide grammatische Kenntnis angeeignet zu haben. Haben Sie einige Tipps zur Erleichterung des Aneignungsprozesses der russischen Sprache zu teilen, wäre ich Ihnen äusserst dankbar.

I've been learning languages for almost two years now, but not effectively. I'll get excited and do too much, burn out, forget stuff, etc. Your video has kind of been a calm reminder to start smaller and work my way up with my languages. All of your tips and guidelines are invaluable to me, thank you!

I have been learning Dutch very irregularly for the past few years but have only ever studied very sporadically with ineffective methods and thus, have only been able to reach an A2 level in the language. In the past few weeks however, I have started dedicating 30 minutes to an hour per day to study, using mainly podcasts, television shows and KZread videos as well as my Dutch dictionary for vocabulary. I try and write 1-2 times per week to my family in the Netherlands via Facebook messenger and am already finding that my language skills are improving. I find that I can understand more than I can speak, so I will need to focus on conversing in the language, in the coming months. By the end of this year, I am hoping to reach an upper B1 level in the language and hopefully by next year I can reach an upper B2 level. My biggest problems have been getting too excited about different languages and study them for a week before getting bored and moving on, as well as being embarrassed to speak the language amongst family for fear of not being understood and of course, using ineffective methods but I am hoping that I am now on track to be speaking proficient Dutch by 16 and German by 19 ( I will major in German and History when I go to university in 2 years time).

*1st step: Research the language* *2nd step: Prepare the tools* 1. A main learning resource (book, website youtube channel) 2. An alphabet book or app 3. An excel table or notebook 4. A spaced repetition app (Anki, Quizlet) 5. A dictionary (with audio and conjugasion feature) *3rd step: Choose a resource* CRITERIAS: 1. With good quality and video 2. Each lesson has a short conversation, grammar points, a word list *4th step: Make a study plan and know when to practice with a native speaker* STUDY PLAN VIDEO: kzread.info/dash/bejne/n4dpu5hyppO-Z9Y.html WHEN TO START SPEAKING WITH NATIVES? - When you have a basic structure of the language - At least 100 high frequency words and basic grammar concept (pronouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, nouns) HOW TO STUDY A LESSON? 1. Listen to the audio 2. Check new words and grammar points 3. Repeat with the audio Add new words to the lesson Ex: Just learned how to say ‘good’, how can i say ‘bad’? Just learned how to say “He is a student”, how can i say it using ‘I’, ‘You’, ‘Us’? - Make simple sentences from the beggining, with the words you learned from the lesson - Insert this sentences in your spaced repetition app (Anki, Quizlet), and review them - Don’t review just the word you want to, but the whole sentence -When you see a new verb, don’t just learn it alone, but learn it’s conjugasion TIP: Make sentences that relate to your daily life HOW TO STUDY GRAMMAR? - Don’t write everything down - Don’t just copy, make phrases on your own

I really liked this video Zoe! As I've written before, I study 6 languages simultaneously but I've felt that I need to set short-term goals and bring more structure into a particular language. I feel so great watching Chinese shows on Netflix now for example and being able to catch more and more words as my studies progress. So, to everyone on this journey, never give up because consistency pays off! I always look forward to your videos on my KZread feed! 😌

@@Jin_music_de_official heh heh, you and me both, lol. I'm so hooked. Been learning various languages on and off over the years and watching videos like this as well as several other polyglots like Steve Kauffman and Olly Richards have really inspired me to brush up on them and made me realize it's ok, I'm not crazy. Seeing Zoe do 4 at a time made me feel ok because I thought maybe I'm nuts or something. I'm focusing on them all at various levels and they are all from different language families (except for French and Spanish). I'm immersing myself in Spanish at the moment but the rest I'll do in smaller degrees so as not to get myself too confused, lol. I hope you are going strong and enjoying it.

This is precisely the kind of rigid structure and analysis that I need, as my language learning has been so scattered and disorganised for years. Great work, Zoe!

This was extremely helpful for me! Thank you so much for making this video! As a new Korean learner as well as a freshman in high school, having this vid show how to set up an effective study plan is really useful for me! You have such a concise and easy to understand way of explaining things! Seeing you show and explain how you juggle such a busy schedule has given me motivation to be able to strive under pressure! Thank you again!

Your videos are gold, Zoe! Thank you so much. I've been learning languages for years and your concrete tips are beyond helpful.

How smart woman. Honestly, not just only to teach, but your character build everyone, your vibes are the one most i like your channel, Zoe! motivated each other, and still inspired and educate.

I love your videos! You're the only person I have found that is super real about learning languages. Other people on YT are like, "You just have to do it, just spend a lot of time every day, immerse yourself and talk to lots of people in your target language" which is not always possible. I've learned that people have different levels of ability when it comes to how 'easy' it is to learn a language. Some people pick it up easily, some people struggle a lot. I struggle tons, I've failed at 2 languages and I'm currently now working on a completely different language and I'm not going to give up! Good luck everyone (:

I liked this video very much. The honesty and assertiveness in answering people's questions are really remarkable. Keep it up Zoe!

This is by far the best video I have watched on creating a good study plan, and you provided so many good examples! Would love a video on the language learner profiles :)

Hi, Zoe. This video is the sincronicity I needed to get back in the right path as I listen to my target language, French, every single day but still have difficulty to write or speak confidently. Of course my comprehension level is much higher even though I've been a bit unfocused on my main goal of becoming B2!! Therefore I shall thank you for sharing these tips and that beautiful energy. Greetings from Spain!!

This video couldn't have come at a better time. I've been scouring the internet for good language learning material and busy drawing up a study plan. I've already been immersing myself mostly in Spanish to get back to the level I was previously and more, but I need to structure that and all the other bits and pieces I'm learning. I just love languages and you and Steve Kauffman, Olly RIchards, and various other polyglots have really inspired me to learn all my languages properly. This time I'm enjoying it so much more as I'm not delving into loads of grammar and verb conjugations etc. I'm just enjoying it so much, mostly listening at the moment and following some of Olly and Steve's recommendations. I'm learning so much more so fast and even watched a movie in Spanish the other night with no subtitles. I was able to understand quite a lot. This is way more fun!

This is the first time that I see a plan for people who WORK. Usually, people who talks about study plans they talk as we have lots of free time. This plan is for REAL people. Thank you!!!!

Hi Zoe, thank you for another inspiring and helpful video! ✨️ I liked the way you separated between discoverer and master levels here. Also demonstrating how to create a study plan was very useful - I find I lost my structure the last 2 weeks and have been aimlessly studying French, like you mentioned, which results in feeling frustrated and that I'm not learning as effectively. So, a great reminder for me to go back to my plan and persist with structure and consistency in routine! Merci encore et j'espère tu vas bien 😊

It's exactly what I need, before I watched your video, I was feeling so confused about how should I improve my English and where should I start. For many years my English didn't improve at all, but now I understand why. Thank you so much, Zoe.

I like this level of discussion, many channels are for beginners or discoverers only, but I like the focus on the master goal, which I don’t see many polyglot channels for

Hi Zoe! I'm new here. I really love learning new languages but until now I couldn't reconnect with this passion of mine that has been put aside from a long time ago. You're really an inspiration. I can only hope you keep making this amazing content. You have gained another faithful follower. Thanks a lot!

i loved this video , and you are right in everything , I have 6 months learning english and I just started study french , one of my targets is to be polyglot . and I Practice with all those videos and at the same time you inform me about many important things for learning, you inspire me a lot to go ahead with my learning, really appreciate your advices.

Zoe, thanks so much for this video. A light bulb went off in my head as I've been wandering aimlessly in my language study for about a year. Your video made me realize I'm not applying any of the goal setting and time management skills I used to earn my Master's and PhD. There was no school establishing a structure and timeline for my language learning and I didn't bother creating one of my own. This video made me realize why I've been lost and not really making progress. If you don't know where you are going, and you don't have a plan on how to get there, it's easy to get lost. The journey then becomes more of wandering around in a maze rather than traveling down a highway to a destination.

这真是我在youtube上看到的最有用的study tips了！感谢🙏

Salut Zoe! Vos vidéos m'inspirent vraiment. Je suis brésillienne et ma première langue étragère a été aussi le français et aussi par loisir, ce qui m'a aidé beaucoup dans mes études dans le master en Histoire. Par contre, malgré soit nécéssaire, l'anglais c'est plus difficile pour moi d'apprendre avec plaisir et encouragement. Je comprends la majorité de vos vidéos en anglais (les sous-titres en français aident beaucoup), je lis quelques sujets, mais parler.... Maintenant j'étudie coréen et arabe. Ce sont de deux langues que j'ai toujours aimé (comme le japonais, l'allemand..... ^^), mais la deuxième je suis dans l'alphabétisation encore. Cette vidéo c'est vraiment utile. Merci beaucoup! ^^

I really love this video! i have been watching videos about language plans for a few days, because i was feeling a little down and desmotived about my own way to study and not being consistenly in it. So, this kind of videos are helping me a lot, seriously! Thank you so much

非常感谢zoy！你真的是我的救命恩人💞作为一个学习中文的阿拉伯人我觉你拍的这段视频既有用也给了我大开眼界~~

Thank you making this video. I have been aimlessly trying to learn a language for a long time. Now I see where I have gone wrong and can do better.

thank you for your advice! i just realized that my difficulty is lack of exercise to build sentences. thank you for breaking down the plan. you inspired me a lot! I'll try to make my own plan!

Thank you so much for this video, Zoe. I have a lot of thinking to do because I have some lofty language goals. This is a great help!! ❤️❤️❤️

You’re a very intelligent person, Zoe. I speak Greek and English ... and I’m studying Spanish, Portuguese and Japanese!

Probably the best video I've ever seen on the topic so far! Thank you!! 💜

Thank you so much Zoe! A lot of people here in the Netherlands speak more languages, me unfortunately just 1, but i am not ashamed anymore, at least i try to learn Turkish and I am very slow, but i tell people honestly i have a 6year plan! So your positive view on learning a language makes me want to to the best I can do! Thank you so much!

Earing you talking about him reignited my wonder, I'm going to read something about his work now.

Just subscribed! ^^

I am admired Zoe very much. She is always positive and encourage me learn more as well.

Thank you so much! My goal is to be able to speak/ have conversations in French. I am not new to the language. When I attempt to say, the sentences sound better in my head. I feel now I have an idea of where to start to reach my goal.

You’re absolutely right, vision is KEY! If you don’t have a vision before you start learning you could end up wasting a lot of time and resources.

Thank you Zoe for this helpful video. I am American-Palestinian. I have been living in France for 4 years now and I still have a lot of difficulty because I don't really like the language to being with, but my kids and husband all speak it. I don't like to speak in public because I make too many mistakes. I keep making the same mistakes and I just get discouraged, especially around family members, so I don't want to sound stupid. I want to speak French fluently because I have the privilege of living in the country and because I would like to become a French citizen since my husband and children are. I will definitely watch more of your videos!

I really like your video, Zoe! =) I like to start learning languages because it's so itneresting in the beginning and most of the time I can learn the beginner's level quite easily. But after that I get into trouble. I'm German and also fluent in English, so these two are fine. I forgot most of what I learned in school about Latin and French though. And I studied Japanese in University and even studied in Japan for a year but my mind was pre-occupied with other things during the pandemic, so I didn't study anymore and my level dropped. I'd like to take the JLPT N2 test at some point though and your video really motivated me to finally make a plan! :D

I feel happy when you said you learn farsi😁. I live in Iran and farsi is my mother tongue. It would be my pleasure if I can help you learn it faster or better🌸
