If can sometimes be a little difficult to learn a foreign language fluently. But there are many things you can do to make your learning more successful.
When you speak a foreing language, it’s normal to have an accent. That’s OK — other people can usually understand. It’s a good idea to listen to CDs ant try to imitate other speaker to make your pronunciation better.
If you see a new word, and you don’t know what it means, you can sometimes guess the meaning from words you know, or you can look up the word in a dictionary.
A lot of good language learners try not to translate things from their first language. Translation is sometimes a good idea, but try to think in the foreing language if you can!
It’s also normal to make mistakes. When your teacher corrects a mistake in your writing or speaking, think about it and try to see why it’s wrong. But it’s more important to communicate, so don’t be afraid to speak!
