I found an Italian pen pal (email correspondence), which has been really useful. He writes in English which I correct, and I write in Italian and he corrects it. After 3 years I've noticed a real improvement and it comes quite easily to me now. Obviously the language is informal, talking about daily life, but it's been so helpful!

Sadly writing is one thing, fluent conversation back n forth is quite another. I live in Italy 3 months a year and still find it challenging, the more you use it through easier it gets, depends on regions too.

I have been learning Italian for a year now, and I agree with ALL of your tips. i had been self-taught by finding different apps, KZbin channels, Netflix shows, listening to podcasts, spending a month in Italy, and getting Italian books. now, I do Italian tutoring every week and will finally start doing classes in spring! :) the methods you discussed are how my understanding, pronunciation, and ability to construct sentences improved a ton!! great video

About the writing tip, one notebook at a time would be enough. I’m starting Italian, which means ım a beginner, but through my Japanese and German learning processes I just had one notebook, wrote there grammar,vocab and stuff, and whenever I needed to revise or just wanted to revise everything ı learned back then I’ll just read my notes which I summarized in my own words. (btw I think revision is rlly important when learning anything new, so rereading my notes and revising them helps a LOT)also notebooks become something like a tracker to see what you have learned, so I rlly like them!I hope this helped!

I would emphasize what you said about not trying to be perfect. I think perfectionism may be the single biggest hindrance to language learning, at least to speaking a language. It certainly hindered me when I was learning French. I eventually got over my perfectionism, but, unfortunately, now that I’m at an advanced level it’s back because I expect to be perfect. And even if you’re at a C1 level you will make mistakes.

I absolutely agree about reading aloud. It's just really helpful!! someday, when I was actively learning English I just tried to read aloud some text for fan and after some practice I mentioned that my proposition was better than before, of course. I did this every time, when I could, because it was adorable for me and now everyone around me gives me compliments about my pronunciation. so, yea, thank you so much, it's really works with every language

Grazie Shea per questo video. In referenza alla padronanza della lingua, la cosa che mi manca piu' che altro, e' la possibilita' di parlare la lingua ogni giorno. L'altro ieri ho sentito un ragazzo Americano dire, ".. at night the dars". Il padre gli ha chiesto, le cose? Ed il bambino ha detto "the dars when it's dark". Il padre ha indovinato che lui voleva dire "stars", e poi ha gentilmente ripronunciato la parola, Stars, S, St, Stars, ed il giovanotto incominciava a pronunciare la parola non perfettamente, ma meglio di prima. Noi che ci troviamo fuori il paese, abbiamo una strada difficile di seguire, dal momento che parliamo la lingua forse 2 volte alla settimana. Grazie per le tue lezioni. Salute, Tom

I also take a lot of notes and hardly ever revisit them. I also wonder if it is worth it. I also say it's worth it because the process of writing YOUR notebooks is helpful for YOU. But I have a totally different notebook system: One book to rule them all, ehem I mean. One notebook for everything. In my case French, math, chess, and others. Works for me.

Lingopie is a great option, but I'm not sure you can add it to a TV? Haha I could talk to them and see if that's possible or a feature in the works 🤔😉 You could also try Language Reactor for when you watch KZbin videos. It's not exactly the same and can be a little clunky, but will at least give you dual subtitles!

Unless you’re being tested on something I almost say notebooks would be a waste of time. I think reading as much as possible is a much more useful way to spend your time. I personally read as much as possible not just Italian but books about the culture of using words for instance buongiorno is used until 4pm. Duolingo is a good start I believe too. It also helps to have visited the country for two months. You’ll feel more invested in wanting to learn that language. That being said excited to try lingopie!

I wish someone out there actually broke down simple sentences like, Da dove viene vostra nonna? And translated it, "From where (he, she, it, comes) your (f) grandmother? " Instead of translating it, "Where does your grandmother come from?" I keep thinking that the translations get in the way of understanding how other cultures think. I know that as I study more I make those connections myself, but I find it frustrating. Perhaps it is just me.

The best way to learn any language is to live in the country that speaks the language. Otherwise just watch, listen, talk and start thinking in that language. No matter how many videos you watch until you start cooking you’ll never learn how to cook Forget about mistakes. Everyone’s making tons of them. That’s how you keep improving and master any language. There isn’t any secrets. Whatever you do with your mother language do it with whatever language you want to learn

On May 1st 2021 I decided to create a home University, in which, I chose the most practical foreign language for my location, Spanish. I had read something about becoming bilingual makes you smarter and, as a self-taught network engineer, I needed every brain cell working. Shea, you and I started off the same way only I had an advantage of decades and had torn things apart before. I knew it would be a shitshow putting it all back together. I started a lexicon with one word: time. When the focus was on one word, I made the entry just that one word. However, when context chunking was required, I did that. Anyway, 16000 entries later and, 28 months, I´m at a C1 level in every category including speaking in Iberian Spanish. Would I trade the 14,000 word vocabulary for more vocal exercise? Never. Because I´m going on to 20,000 words and then, I have forever with probably one of the most expansive active vocabularies in the language. Long term versus Short term and the fact, when you get to a goal, the likelihood of never getting back to it is extremely high. The lexicon is my primary tool and it contains all Spanish grammar, idioms, verb forms, everything. I read through once per month and it takes 12 days. Learn words like numbers: total context.

Great video. I understand about being apprehensive about making mistakes. But when most of us do it, native speakers will think we aren't very bright. However when you do it, I'm sure they think it's cute.

I don’t think native speakers will think you’re dumb if you make a mistake. It’s natural, how can someone that’s learning a language possibly speak without having any mistakes? In my experience native speakers understand it’s normal and won’t judge you, if you’re learning a language it’s impossible to speak it perfectly right away, it takes a long time. When Italians speak in English to me and make mistakes, I never assume they aren’t bright. In fact, quite the opposite, because it takes a smart person to learn a new language.

I agree with Shea. I think it's sweet when foreginers speak English with an accent and if they make some mistakes, I never think they are dumb, I just admire them for what they do know and the fact that they are trying to learn another language.
