You bought a phrasebook dictionary and a subscription to an online class, ready to dive head first into the language for the first day or two.

You gained ground quickly, learning a few basic phrases and words a week before learning that language was just a dream.

Then the third and fourth day roll around, the excitement is wearing off.

You encouraged yourself to continue, and another week or two goes by, but with a lot less progress.

Suddenly, learning a new language doesn't fill you with excitement anymore.

Sometimes it feels like you're drowning in grammatical cases.

Verb, conjugation, zin, wonky pronunciation.

It all seems too much to handle, so you start to think about giving up.

Learning a foreign language is difficult.

We won't pretend like it isn't, but that doesn't mean you can't do it sometimes you just need to take a step back, reevaluate your approach and come back to the language with a different perspective.

In this video, we'll look at four tips for when learning a new language feels overwhelming.

Number one set aside a designated study time.

Consistency is key when learning a foreign language studying 15 minutes seven days a week will benefit you more than cramming in two hours one day a week.

Set aside an amount of time that works best for you.

If you can afford to spend an hour every day learning that's awesome.

If you can't spend that much time, even 10 or 15 minutes a day goes a long way.

Breaking up your learning into manageable time segments will relieve a lot of the stress that can come with studying a new language.

Go at your own pace and try not to compare your progress with anyone else's number to take it one bite at a time.

Now that you have your schedule under control, it's time to focus on what she'll actually be studying.

It's recommended that everyone to two weeks you focus on learning a very specific piece of the language.

It could be a conjugation group, a case tense or a collection of theme vocabulary.

Whatever you choose, hone in on it and do your best to feel comfortable with it before you move on to something else.

Ever heard the saying How do you eat an elephant?

Focusing on one thing at a time helps you break the language into digestible chunks.

Expose yourself to the language in different ways.

Don't just sit around reading about grammar all day.

Obviously, knowledge of grammar is important, but you want to spice up your practice as much as possible.

In addition to grammatical study, try to mix in a combination of reading, writing, speaking and listening.

Try to practice reading by either translating a simple article into your native language.

Or maybe if you're a beginner, pick up a Children's book in your target language for writing, you can try to write out a fictional conversation between you and yourself.

Even use the phrase is, you know, to create a mock conversation.

And don't use any words you can't think of or you don't remember to practice speaking.

You confined native speakers locally at a language club or at a meet up.

You can also find them online in a language exchange for listening.

Spread out each type of practice listening, reading, speaking and writing across your regular language study schedule.

This will give you a balanced experience in the language and should help keep things interesting.

This method also works well when you use it to focus on a single aspect of the language.

Number four sent mini goals, not just big ones.

If you're only language learning goal is to be fluent, you're likely setting yourself up for disappointment while speaking fluently.

Try to set many goals month by month and week by week.

Learn 20 new verbs, practice a new case or speak with three native speakers.

As long as it's specific and reasonable to achieve in a shorter amount of time, it should work fine.

Not having many goals alongside your ultimate goal is a lot like sprinting across a huge open field.

There's no reference point, so For much of the time, it feels like you're not any closer to your goal.

It just feels like you're not without any trees or buildings to run past.

Many goals are like the trees and buildings of your language race.

They help you see that you're moving forward and give you a sense of accomplishment.

The desire for perfection can get in the way of your progress.

Don't freak out when you struggle to speak or make a mistake.

Also, don't be afraid to speak, even if you know what you'll say won't be totally correct.

It's better to do your best to communicate in the language and get it wrong than to never try it all.
