Many people around the world self-study a language, yet don\u2019t attend a class or join a conversation group. This is why we want to provide free, useful tips on how to stay on top of your language practice!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Join a Class or Conversation Group!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>First, if you aren\u2019t already, we highly recommend that you try taking a language class, join a conversation class, or try to find some people to talk to in Spanish (or the language you\u2019re learning) at least once a month. The more of a beginner you are, the more often you should participate in classes, conversations, and\/or meetups.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><br>We lose so much by not practicing daily and participating in a class or conversation allows you to take the time and practice. In a class, a good teacher would make you repeat words and have conversations with others. As a result, you learn to repeat the same vocabulary over and over again and then you can better incorporate those words into your daily life. Julieta herself is a language learner and when she stops having her language classes for more than 3 weeks, she loses some vocabulary. It\u2019s imperative to self-study and practice daily in your free time, but joining a class and having conversations can really help you in those beginning phases!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/crl-media.sfo3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/06234338\/Language-Conversation-Classes-Boise-18-1024x678.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18721\" width=\"456\" height=\"302\" srcset=\"https:\/\/crl-media.sfo3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/06234338\/Language-Conversation-Classes-Boise-18-1024x678.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/crl-media.sfo3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/06234338\/Language-Conversation-Classes-Boise-18-300x199.jpg 300w, https:\/\/crl-media.sfo3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/06234338\/Language-Conversation-Classes-Boise-18-768x509.jpg 768w, https:\/\/crl-media.sfo3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/06234338\/Language-Conversation-Classes-Boise-18-624x413.jpg 624w, https:\/\/crl-media.sfo3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/06234338\/Language-Conversation-Classes-Boise-18-600x397.jpg 600w, https:\/\/crl-media.sfo3.digitaloceanspaces.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/06234338\/Language-Conversation-Classes-Boise-18.jpg 1300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 456px) 100vw, 456px\" \/><figcaption>(Conversation group @ CRL)<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Write it Out! Then repeat.<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:21px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Secondly, when you\u2019re just self-studying, writing down words, sentences, and difficult vocabulary is vital to remembering the words you struggle with. Start by choosing a topic (one word) and writing a text with simple, short sentences. For example:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Choose a topic, like <em>House<\/em><\/li><li>Keep it in the present tense to make it simple.<\/li><li>Create short sentences. Practice daily by repeating and having conversations or dialogues (even if they\u2019re just in your head and to yourself).<ul><li>I build houses.&nbsp;<\/li><li>I close the windows every night.&nbsp;<\/li><li>The heater warms the house.&nbsp;<\/li><li>I have to water the plants often.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Then repeat that for other conjugations (i.e. \u201ctu\u201d for Spanish) etc.<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re a beginner and need more in-depth tips, checkout our blog post <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/crlanguages.com\/de\/lerngewohnheiten-reihe-schritt-fur-schritt-vokabeln-fur-anfanger\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Step-by-Step Vocabulary for Beginners here!<\/strong><\/a> <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/crlanguages.com\/de\/lerngewohnheiten-reihe-schritt-fur-schritt-vokabeln-fur-anfanger\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><\/a><strong>(<\/strong>Comes with a free downloadable\/printable PDF sheet!)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Re-Read Important Notes and Lessons!<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, read, read, and read some more! Not just anything \u2014 go back and re-read the lessons you have already done. Read them until you know what\u2019s coming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Read the notes you take out loud while you are studying. Writing and speaking out loud (rather than just reading in your head) while studying has been proven to help you learn better and improve your memory. If you practice vocab with the above tip of writing sentences, read out loud as you write!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>If you need more help with vocab pronunciation, check out our <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/crlanguages.com\/de\/study-habit-series-focusing-on-pronunciation\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Study Habit Series: Focusing on Pronunciation here!<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Self-Talk<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Fourth tip: Talk to yourself in Spanish (or whatever language you\u2019re learning). Imagine conversations in your head and try to talk it out with yourself. We recommend doing this at home, otherwise people might think you are crazy. However, if you don\u2019t care what people think, then do it wherever you are! <img decoding=\"async\" height=\"16\" src=\"https:\/\/paper.dropboxstatic.com\/static\/img\/ace\/emoji\/1f609.png?version=6.0.0\" alt=\"winking face\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>If you are buying food, practice saying the word of that food product out loud. If you are driving, describe what you see out loud. Try to pay attention to the words that don\u2019t come to you easily. Look them up later. Take notes when you can!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">If all else fails\u2026<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>If all else fails, then repeat, 1-4 again!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Or check out one more blog post <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/crlanguages.com\/de\/study-habits-series-vocabulary\/\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Lerngewohnheiten-Reihe: Konzentration auf das Erlernen eines hervorragenden Wortschatzes<\/strong><\/a> for more useful vocabulary tips!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:20px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><br><strong>Haben Sie eine besondere Methode, um neue Vokabeln zu lernen?
