Hello! How are you?
I've been trying so hard to learn and re-learn the Spanish language. Re-learning because I've started the basic course in early 2013 in NYC, and then gone through it again in August 2013 in Guatemala -- but just for a week since I had a health scare when I was Antigua during my 7th month pregnancy. I dunno if it's the "mommy brain" that keeps me from not improving my lingo skills, or it's just me lacking the initiative (and the time) to hone it. And I really thought I had a knack for foreign languages. Ugh!
I've learned the Korean language or Hangeul 한글 when I was working for a Korean gov't agency in Manila, and when I went to Seoul to have my master's degree, btw.
Maybe this TEDx talk can help me realize what I've been doing wrong in learning a new language(?). Check out this link from Benny of the famed Fluent in 3 months blog and book: http://fi3mplus.com/tedx/
So what do you think about Benny's strategy of speaking from day 1?
Hope it helps all of us who are struggling to learn a foreign lingo. Best of luck to us!
Go for it! 화이팅! ¡Animo! ^^
¡Besitos!
