Read

Read words, sentences, children’s books, newspaper articles. Read as far and near as you can, whether out loud to an audience or quietly to yourself.

Seeing the language in print helps you understand word structures. It also anchors the new sounds, and helps them get imprinted in your mind.

Talk

Create the need to talk in your new language. Regularly, seek opportunities for conversations, brief and long, with old neighbors and new friends.

Start with short sentences. Be prepared to make mistakes. Welcome when someone corrects you.
