How to Learn a Language on Your Own

Ever wanted to learn a foreign language, but been put off by expensive and ineffective classes and tutors? Well, the good news is that, with a little guidance, you can learn a language on your own, to fluency, whilst having fun and without spending too much money.

Steps

Image titled Learn a Language on Your Own Step 1
1
Select your target language carefully. There’s no use learning a language you don’t like, one that you don’t enjoy speaking. The more you enjoy your language learning, the more of it you’re likely to do. Also, it’s worth thinking about the difficulty of your target language in relation to your native language. Whilst it’s possible for anybody of reasonable intelligence to learn any language they like, languages that are similar to your native language will take less time to achieve fluency in, and languages that are spoken in countries near to yours, or in large immigrant communities in your country will be easier to find resources for. For your first language, I recommend you chose something fairly close to your native language, and not too obscure (for example, Spanish rather than Swahili if you’re a native English speaker) just so you’re not faced with too much of a challenge.

2
Learn to read and write. You will never progress very far in your target language if you are illiterate , so this should be the first thing on your list. For some languages, this is just learning to pronounce your own alphabet slightly differently, but you may need to learn a whole new alphabet, for example in Russian, Greek or Arabic. If you plan to learn Japanese or one of the Chinese languages, learn your kanji/hanzi! You won’t get very far without them. Don’t obsess too much over pronunciation, you’re much better picking that up naturally later, but know how the letters sound.

3
Gather materials in your target language. Books, films, comics, CDs, podcasts, newspapers, DVDs…everything you can. As long as it was made for native speakers of your target language, it’ll be useful to you. The key here is finding material that interests you, and that you enjoy. This way you’ll actually want to use it.

4
Use flashcards or an SRS (spaced repetition system) to learn sentences (not words, you’ll remember better this way) in your target language. Use simple sentences, e.g. ’what’s this? it’s a book’ or ‘yesterday, I went to work’ along with their translations at first, but as you get better, don’t translate them, and use more complex sentences. Take all your sentences from your material in your target language. Try to use a variety of sources. To make sure you take in some grammar, get a grammar book, but don’t read the explanations, just learn the example sentences. This is a lot more effective than learning hundreds of rules that you won’t remember anyway.

5
Be exposed to your target language as much as possible. Listen to music and podcasts on the way to work or school, read books before you go to bed, read the news online, watch films and TV programs. Focus on short bursts of your target language with short gaps in between them, rather than the marathon textbook and grammar sessions that are advocated by most language teachers. One reason why classes or school teaching usually doesn’t result in fluency is that students barely spend any time exposed to their target language. Constant exposure means you pick up words, phrases and grammar, as well as improving your accent, and listening and reading skills without even realising it, the way children learn their first language.

6
After about six months or so (this varies by person and language), start speaking. Find native speakers, get a tutor if you can afford it and possibly visit the country where your target language is spoken. The reason you should wait until you have a decent command of the language before you start speaking, or even writing your own sentences (writing other people’s sentences out is fine, and helps you with foreign alphabets and spelling) is that if you make mistakes, they often won’t be corrected, and therefore bad grammar and pronunciation will be reinforced in your mind, and it will set you back. Make sure when you do talk to native speakers, you get them to correct your mistakes, even if it feels a bit awkward at first. (But find a patient person, and be patient with them in return, as they’re probably not getting paid to teach you their language.) You’ll be grateful for this later.

Image titled Learn a Language on Your Own Step 7
7
Keep going until fluency occurs. After about six months you should have an intermediate level of the language, with okay pronunciation. After a year, you should be upper intermediate to advanced, and after a year and a half to two years you should be near fluent with a native sounding accent. Basically, the more exposure you have to your target language, the quicker you progress.

Image titled Learn a Language on Your Own Step 8
8
Once you reach fluency, keep going with your target language. If you go more than a couple of months with no exposure at all to your target language, you will start to lose it. Not completely, and it’s always easier to relearn a second time than the first time, however it’s even easier not to forget in the first place.

Enjoy. Enjoy all the places you can go to, all the people you can now talk to, all the great films you can watch, and truly understand, without relying on subtitles. Also enjoy the endless career benefits that knowing a foreign language brings.

You can improve anything by paying attention. Dhyan se dekho samajhne Ki koshish karo aur fir istemaal karo. Agar achi angreji bas bolna chahte Ho toh koi ek friend circle join karlo jahaan angreji main baat cheet hoti hai.. Un log mostly football, tv shows, movies hi discuss kar tahe honge toh aap bhi wahi dekhne lagoge phir aapki angreji bolne layak Ho jaegi But usse aapki vocabulary zyada nahi badhti if you want to really improve your vocabulary then you have to read books,novels even Grammar books to make it perfect Baaki jitne log bi angreji sikhte hain movie wagera dekhke sadak chaap lagti hai (this includes me too) you will get stuck in sentences where you need to express your feelings or something that never occurs in your daily conversation. In my case I can say I am good at none of 3 languages I know. There would be times when I would be using a mixture of all the three to get to the exact point just like this paragraph where I switched from Hindi to English. Sadak chaap will be apparent when one talks with them. Newspapers used to be good earlier even they now too use improper words and sometimes even use those words which are only used in conversation never in written. The most common one being sync, I think people have even forgotten that sync is the short for synchronization. CC @Magus

I would urge you to get into the habit of reading good English books rather than watching movies or TV. I could go on about its advantages all day long. Not only will it improve your English faster than ever, you will have much wider perspective on things. If you are lucky, you might even fall upon a book or two that will change the rest of your life. For recommendations you can go here https://www.reddit.com/r/...s/ or visit Goodreads.
