Two of the most important things when we learn a new language are motivation but especially perseverance.
Hello everyone and welcome to a new video! I'm Stefano and I'm a teacher of Italian for foreigners.
In today's video I'll give you some tips on how to create the perfect routine for studying a language
Or a good routine of departure to create your own.
Being motivated when learning a new language is very important and I think it helps to keep being motivated.
It is very important to have a routine, in fact a routine will help you to be consistent
That's very important when we learn a language.
And before you start remember that if you don't want to lose all future videos you just subscribe to the channel
And if you want to support me leave a nice me like, easy easy!
So we start to create our routine.
Obviously the ideal would be to study every day but we don't have time to do that,
So try to choose the days that are good for you.
But the most important thing is to choose the time, not just say
Okay, I'll study on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
I'll study on Mondays at 9, Wednesdays at noon and Fridays at 6pm.
This is something you have to choose based on your commitments, but choose even one hour
And write that time in your calendar.
So you know that for example Monday at 9am is your Italian moment, you're busy.
No, because it's a date with the Italian.
So choose the days and times well and you can be a little flexible,
But try to keep a routine because that will help you make studying Italian a habit.
And we human beings are very habituated, so if Italian becomes a habit,
Constant will be a game of boys.
Don't worry, you don't have to study 3-4 hours a day.
If you study for 3, 4, 5 days a week, even 15, 20 minutes, half an hour a day go perfectly.
Sure, if you have an hour to study, fine, perfect, but you don't have to study that long.
Because it's hard for our heads to store so much information in a single day.
So if you study often during the week, 20-30 minutes a day are perfect.
And if you want to create a routine and feel super motivated to follow it, then you should absolutely try Busuu.
Busuu is a fantastic platform with more than 120 million users worldwide
I'm learning 14 languages, including Italian.
It will allow you to improve grammar and vocabulary easily
With short lessons wherever you are, but especially it will help you stay motivated and create a studio piano.
In fact, with the premium version of the Busuu you can create a personalized studio piano.
Let's see if we can get it.
First of all, choose the reason why you want to study Italian, for example to have fun and get to know the culture.
Then we decide what level we want to reach, I say V2.
Then choose how long you want to study every day and trust me, 20 minutes is fine.
Now we pick the days, I'll say Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday and even the time.
I like to study in the morning, so yeah, 7.30 is fine.
Perfect, Busuu says I'll reach my goal by April 19th, 2023
I can also receive a notification when I study, this is very important
Why do I get the notification directly on my cell phone?

And now we go on with the video, what should you be studying these days?
Well, try to focus on all aspects of the language, for example, let's start with listening.
Listen to the podcast, watch the video on YouTube, come questo, insomma esponiti alla lingua.
so you can improve your listening and understanding skills.
Then we go to grammar, study grammar in a book or on my YouTube videos for example.
And then I recommend you do some exercises.
Then we go to the vocabulary, write down all the new words you learned during the week
A book, a notebook or on your phone.
Repeat it and try to form sentences with these words, so it will be easier to remember.
At the same time, writing sentences will also allow you to improve your writing skills.
Then read, for example, read a book, short stories or even articles on the web.
And to finish the conversation, obviously you must also talk, this is very important.
So book a lesson with a professor online or with linguistic partners,
This will help you put into practice everything you've learned during the week.
Another tip for your routine is to include a little fun.
Studying should also be fun, so according to your level choose fun activities
I can help you improve your Italian.
For example, if you like to cook, watch YouTube's Italian cooking videos.
This is outside studio hours, just for fun.
And even if you don't understand the whole video 100%, maybe you only understand 40-50%, it's not a problem.
First of all because you have an image, so even if you don't understand what they're saying, you can see what they're doing.
But also because this will inevitably help you to learn more about the Italian language.
And then improve your listening skills.
In short, do what you like, don't feel obliged to read a book if you don't like to read
Or watch a TV show if you don't like watching TV.
Try to do something fun in the language you're learning.
This will keep you entertained and motivated.
And to be motivated during your routine, look for even the smallest of rewards.
For example, do you like chocolate?
Well, after you learn Italian you can eat a piece of chocolate.
Do you like to go for a walk?
Don't make your passeggiata if you haven't studied Italian.
After the studio we can go for a walk.
Well, trying to develop these compensation techniques, they help a lot.
And lastly, most importantly, in your routine you should also include days of rest and days of repose.
In fact, studying seven days a week can be a little difficult.
So I advise you to include one, at least one day of rest,
And most importantly, a day of reckoning.
For example, if you study from Monday to Friday, use the Saturday as the day of your study.
And Sunday is a day of rest, of relaxation.
During the day of rehearsal repeat all the things you learned during the week,
This is fundamental before learning new things.
And during the day of rest relax, shut your brain and don't think all Italian.
Maybe you can watch some videos if you're having fun, read a book,
But don't study, rest, because the mind also needs a little relaxation.
And when we study a language, the mind gets tired, it gets tired too much!
