This short video shows you a simple trick I use to “practice” a new language. If you have any trouble watching the video above, it’s also available on YouTube

UPDATE:
Our favorite way to learn a new language is by using the all-audio courses from Pimsleur. They are pricey, but they work.

You listen to a 30 minute lesson each day, then do the practice trick I spoke of in the video. Of course, audio won’t teach you to read so you’ll need another program if you need that. Here are links to the specific Pimsleur Spanishand French series’ we’ve used.

You can also see all the languages they offer and listen to a free lesson here.

What’s your favorite language learning program or trick? We’d love to hear your experiences.
