Getting over the intermediate plateau in language learning

[@OnlyMusic16]

Intermediate level is a secret curse honestly. The majority of language content is too easy, but real life is too hard. It's absolutely maddening but I'm so glad you're out here explaining it so clearly. As always, thanks for the tips! You motivate me to study more.

[@AfroLinguo]

Intermediate level is like an ocean where there is so much stuff to learn and you see virtually no progress. 😂😅 I remember it happening to me when I was learning German and now that I am totally fluent and learning Mandarin, It has hit me again. 😂😅

[@Tehui1974]

Thanks for the useful tips. I'm a male adult who is currently at a B1 level in my target language. I've never learnt a second language before so there is a 'self-belief barrier' that I am constantly pushing myself through. The target language is also my heritage language, so I feel a strong spiritual & emotional connection to the language. I remember having a powerful dream two years ago, just prior to my language journey, where my older relatives were calling out to me in my heritage language. I remember waking up and wanting to dive back into my dream. My motivation is currently strong, and I now dedicate an average of 1 hour a day to language learning. This may sound very weak to admit, but I'm probably going to cry if / when I reach conversational fluency (i.e B2 level).

[@adriancarrillo5034]

The intermediate plateau is hard to surpass, at least for me. hehe Right now, I am in that "zone" I don't know, but I used to take some break, and not think too much about the language, I stop learning and start to acquire things. But since the progress is slower, I don't feel overwhelmed and from time to time I try to pick up and learn some words/phrases from different topics.

[@jayiu9170]

I think that learning to learn a language is crucial. I learnt the hard way that translating isn't always the best tool, for example. Especially when you want to get to an intermediate level. My native language is Spanish and there are many many things that you can't just translate to English or to Japanese.

[@vodkatonyq]

I don't like translating.

[@MariPolyglot]

I learn by chunking too even as a beginner... I think that learning words just by themselves is like having the tools but not knowing how to use them. Love these tips I do all of these things, intermediate to advance just takes time and a lot of exposure! ❤️❤️📚

[@jssberry]

Do you think you could make a video on what to do when you lose interest in a language? I know some people who they reached their desired level of fluency, but now they're not as interested in it anymore. Does that mean it's time to move on to another language or is it something else?

[@carloshernandez9113]

Jacqueline Sadberry I think one should find out what is the cause of the lost interest . Do you actually not care about the language anymore ? Or is the loss of interest caused by intermediate plateau or the amount of work required to get to the next level of the language. I notice many people get discouraged after reaping the benefits of quickly learning so much of the language’s basics that when they realize just how much it takes to become advanced they “lose interest .” This exists in most foreign languages you will learn (unless it is incredibly close to your native ) and I’ve seen people go from language to language thinking they are losing interest when in fact they’ve just hit a plateau and are moving on to a new language so they can get that rush of everything being new again.(many people don’t realize this . ) In this case I would say to stick to the language and change your strategy. Try to mix things up and try new learning techniques to see if it sparks your passion again. For me the intermediate plateau can totally destroy my love for a language but by recognizing the plateau as the root of the lost interest I push through; thus coming out on the other side loving the language more than I would have though possible . However after honest self deliberation if you discover that you’ve sincerely lost interest in the language and this isn’t based on any of the above I’d advise you to move on. No need in forcing yourself to do something you don’t care about anymore .

[@carloshernandez9113]

Also you said you know people who reached their desired level of fluency. I feel like that often changes as you get better at a language. Language learning can be endless if you want it to be and you can always improve something . However if you know the language to a certain level and are no longer interested in improving it, (because it fits your needs ,) then I’d personally move on to maintaining and start another language . This is a loss of interest different from the one I talked about in my first reply. In this instance you haven’t really lost interest in the language itself but have achieved the goals you set and don’t have any interest growing in the language. The reason why I advise maintaining at this point is because in the future something might happen to make you want to go back and improve that language and you don’t want to have to start several levels back (which can be discouraging and take up much more time than maintaining will )

[@paulwalther5237]

I think there’s a difference between losing interest in a language and losing interest in studying a language. I have lost interest in studying Japanese because I can read books and watch anime and get the gist of everything. I continue doing those activities but I’m not really trying to improve which would involve studying.

[@iKillChineseCats]

Exactly why should people be interested in further learning a language if they reached the level of fluency they wanted? They literally accomplished their goal. Now they can focus on something else. It's a healthy way of handling things. If you don't need it and aren't interested anymore, you should move on and don't waste time on something now useless to you. Perfectionism is not your friend.

[@thalblankson4002]

Yes that was me with Spanish. I was at advanced level and decided to learn Mandarin Chinese and German. I found Spanish to be very ugly and super easy language and had no idea what I was doing learning it so I gave it up. Know I don't even know Spanish anymore.

[@evanfont913]

Great advice about collocations. I did this for my Spanish to learn that something doesn't 'take effect' but rather they 'supply' or 'provide' effect, making the proper way to say it 'surtir efecto'. Great video!

thank you for this video! i really needed this. i’m kind of lost right now because i’m stuck at upper-intermediate in my (now forgotten) mother tongue. i have less difficulty learning and advancing in new languages than i have trying to get better and maintaining a language that i grew up with. honestly, i haven’t been able to find out why i couldn’t advance at all in the last 7 years but it might be because i’m too comfortable just passively listening to really hone my speaking and i’ll definitely try chunking! i’ve noticed that phrases can be life savers before but didn’t think to incorporate them into my learning process. so thanks again

[@ibRebecca]

One thing I think is important when learning languages, especially set phrases, is not to think too much into it. Learn the phrase, the meaning and how to use it but don't think too much etc, makes everything even more confusing. xD

[@LindieBotes]

That's absolutely true! My younger brother learnt Japanese quickly through set phrases whereas my dad struggled a lot because he tried to analyze every single word.

Yo no sabía lo que hacer para cambiar mi nivel. Yo sé muchas palabras y muchos verbos que tienen la misma significa o por lo menos son similares. Y ahora yo sé que necesito enfocarme en las colocaciones! He hablado con alguien ayer por 2 horas y la entendí pero yo había mezclando las colocaciones, “tomar vs beber” “echar vs tirar vs lanzar” y los preposiciones, especialmente “de, en, a” (por ejemplo: llamar a rachael, piensa en mí, depende de ti). ¡Gracias por su vídeo, ahora puedo planear mi aprendizaje más efectivamente!

Overall the text is good! and i see you have lots of vocabulary, just the grammar, tenses and articles/pronouns could be reinforced so that the text sounds more fluent! I think once you manage that then you are a step closer to sound more native-like. I had the same problem in German but now I'm mastering it :3 😄

Great tips, especially about asking for corrections. People understand and want to be encouraging so they don't correct. So, my big take away here, because I am struggling to learn from target language conversations, is to find people who will correct and, ideally, type the corrections. Also, for myself, be more open to pausing to take a note or asking to record the conversation for my study.

yes you absolutely must as soon as possible and as much as possible use the target language to learn the target language. i think actually living there and in immersion is a must; with Russian and Chinese I'm really stuck at B1 or B2 / HSK IV. If i were living in either of those places and avoiding the hell out of my other languages i do think i would get to C1 or C2 at least in Russian and certainly to HSK5 in Chinese.

[@andymounthood]

I write a bucket list of things that I want to be able to do in or with a language in my lifetime and arrange the list from easiest to hardest. I get to work on the easiest one, and then on to the next. In this way, I'm always working on something specific, and then I don't feel like I'm at a plateau (so long as I'm actually working on it, and not taking a break or doing something that I already know how to do). My guess is that, if I master a variety of skills one-at-a-time (such as reading the news, listening to KZbin vloggers, learning a skill or school subject through that language, doing formal debates with a tutor, doing presentations and speeches for a tutor, teaching a skill in my target language, etc.), I will eventually reach an advanced level. I also need to do the things that you mentioned (memorizing and using expressions or collocations, for example).

Maybe a good way to improve your french without lose your korean is try learning the new language (french in your case) using the another language (korean), instead of using english-french materials. Try to use korean-french materials, and combine it with a "total inmersion experience" in your everyday (set the smart phone, pc, etc to french); my native language is spanish and I have an intermediate level (B1, I suppose) in English achieved as a self-taught person. Now i´m starting to learn portuguese so i use english-portuguese materials and try to be focus in portuguese without lose my english skills and trying to use the spanish as little as possible because i know about my english limitations and I don't want to lose what I have achieved. I hope i´ve helped you

Thank you so much! I know I'm really behind everyone else in watching this video. I've been meaning to do so for a long time. I couldn't agree more with all the points you've made, especially when you mentioned watching media in the foreign language, which is super helpful. Writing a diary is something you've mentioned before, and I feel like it would be a great idea for me, but I only had time to do it once before (when I was trying to learn too many languages). Due to the coronavirus isolation that is currently taking place, I've decided to scrap my current learning programme, where I was learning too many languages and found that language learning had become a bit of a chore. I've taken up Polish instead, and am not learning any other languages at the moment. Having taken advantage of various free trials and existing accounts that I have (I took advantage of the free 3 months of Rosetta Stone; it's normally £83/year) I've started learning Polish online at no cost. Also, I have Polish friends who I talk to regularly, and I've found Polish TV programmes on Netflix which look interesting to me. Finally, I've decided to start a diary, although I'm not sure how many times a week I'll do it. Sorry for the lecture, and thanks for the super helpful and interesting video; even though I'm just starting Polish, I'm sure you tips will come in super handy very soon!!! :)

As for other tips to increase one's level, currently I am watching a TV show in my target language with subtitles. I write down unknown vocabulary and expressions. Then I write a summary of the episode applying those expressions (as appropriate). I show it to my tutor and she makes corrections. I also ask how those expressions are used - are they common, too informal, derogatory, or antiquated. So far it has worked really well (going from beginner intermediate to intermediate). Plus, I have someone else with whom I can talk about the show, since I don't know anyone else who is watching that show.

The plateau where you got this word sounds beautiful. In the disease there are the words crisis, i.e. the rise of the disease, the decline of the disease and remission, weakening or decrease. Those. the process of movement of disease or recovery. Plateau geographical designation (fr. Plateau, from plat - "flat") - an elevated plain with a flat or wavy, weakly divided surface, bounded by distinct ledges from the adjacent plain spaces of the earth's surface. The plateau has no movement due to the fact that it is a plane. The plateau has only displacement due to the shift of tectonic plates. We are constantly on it on the plateau. It does not rise and fall. I did not understand. What does medicine and geography do. There is a name stable remission. Reconvalescence is a recovery process. normal life of the body after an illness. Stable (lat. Balance) state of health. Have not tried to repeat the textbook of geography.

What I find the hardest is forming sentences...like I can understand a lot of Korean at this point but if I try filming myself speaking in Korean I just can't form the sentences! When I talk to native speakers on the phone it's a little better but the sentences are generally quite short and perhaps rather basic so I feel like I'm not really improving.

I used to focus so much on trying to get lots of kanji/vocab and grammar down my brain (since i learned english mostly by reading, i knew if i got lots of kanji down quickly, i could read a lot, thus improve a lot). But the thing is that i never trained much my pronunciation, so while i'm sure it's averagely good, my pitch accent absolutely sucks. I can read well though and have conversations (with lots of stuttering), but still got a long way to go to maybe become fluent one day.

ラモーンルカ thats why I love a CD in a book to know the pronunciation
