5 Daily Habits That Made Me a Successful Language Learner (feat. LiveXP)

in this video I will share five simple habits that  help me become a successful language learner they  

won't take a lot of your time only about 10  to 20 minutes but you will see your language  

level increase after giving them a try let's begin  with the first habit talk to AI I think this habit  

will probably take you around 15 minutes a day  I know a lot of you guys have heard recently how  

important it is to use AI while learning foreign  languages especially English you can now ask chat  

PT a lot of different questions like honestly any  question about language learning that's what I  

right now with Spanish if I have a question  about grammar if I'm not sure how to translate  

a specific words I will just ask Chad B but  recently they have introduced a new feature  

where you can actually use your voice to talk  to AI I'm going to try showing you how it works  

because right now I'm at the park and maybe  my internet is not going to be that great but  

the key here is to tell Chad gbt that you're a  language learner and that you wanted to correct  

your mistakes hello I'm a language learner and I'm  learning English and I want to talk to you about  

about my day today I want you to correct my  mistakes and help me improve my vocabulary I'd  

be happy to help how was your day today my day  was pretty good I woke up kind of late at 8:30  

and then I had breakfast that sounds nice just  a small correction you can say I woke up kind  

of late at 8:30 do you want to tell me more about  your day thank you so much uh yes right now I'm at  

the park recording a YouTube video you're welcome  that sounds interesting what kind of video are you  

recording I am making a video for language  Learners with some interesting habits so as  

you can see it's really cool to use because you  can talk about something that you did today your  

plans maybe your vacation plans and Chach will  correct all of your mistakes if you're not sure  

how to say a certain word again just use Ai and it  will help you this habit is especially beneficial  

for those of you guys who sometimes have this  extreme motivation to learn the language you  

I know sometimes I have this feeling too I'm at  home I'm doing something and then I start thinking  

I want to speak Spanish right now with someone so  bad and obviously it's kind of difficult to book a  

lesson that fast and you can just open the app and  have a conversation and you can make it as short  

or as long as you want to now let's move on to the  second habit which is describing an object I would  

say it will take you around 20 minutes you can  incorporate this habit into your writing routine  

or your speaking routine but because we kind of  already talked about your speaking routine try  

to practice it while writing something in English  so right now I'm at the park rade and behind me  

there are some very interesting flowers honestly  I have never seen those flowers before and I can  

just whip out my journal and write what I think  these flowers are called maybe they remind me  

of something like what they look like the colors  and everything it is a beautiful writing exercise  

and plus it is connected to something that is  happening around you right you're not imagining  

things because sometimes it's very hard for us to  use our imagination and plus a lot of people are  

going to say yeah like why should I describe  just an object from my imagination if I will  

never see it or if I will never use it and this  exercise will actually even prompt you to Google  

the name of this plant let's say and be like  what is this plant call you know take a picture  

and ask go gole and stuff like that so this way  you will be improving your vocabulary obviously  

your grammar because all of this is connected to  Active Learning you have to be actively engaged to  

describe an object and of course if you want  to you can also practice speaking this way I  

hope you guys all know and you can agree with me  that when it comes to language learning building  

a habit and practicing it consistently is very  important when you start practicing with a teacher  

a common problem you might encounter is wasting  time learning irrelevant things that are not even  

interesting to you you guys know that I use the  platform life XP for practicing my languages and  

I always recommend it to you recently they have  launched a new AI feature called the personalized  

path that guides you through the whole process  of finding out your English level picking your  

interest and choosing a tutor and I'm very excited  about this new feature and what it can offer so

to call your daily challenge and you can spend  around $1 minutes doing it this is a fun activity  

to stay motivated to learn the language because  sometimes we lose motivation sometimes we feel  

tired exhausted and we kind of need this boost you  know to keep going so this habit is a little bit  

tongue and cheek here a few examples learning five  new idioms using a specific tense throughout the  

day describing your day and the target language  before bed learning about a cultural aspect it can  

be anything but if you if you manage to create a  challenge that is fun and also quick and also you  

know researching all the things in your target  language if your level allows for that you will  

have so much fun and you will not even notice how  the time flies by oh my God this CS are literally  

here this is crazy and there's a second one here  hello No don't touch my camera okay a few days  

ago I decided to do the challenge in Spanish and  I researched the concept of chankla in Mexico so  

the word chankla means a sandal right and you  may be wondering why why are you so interested  

in sandals Veronica and my answer is in a lot of  Mexican households especially in the past mothers  

would like hold up a sandal if they wanted the  kids to listen to them they could even like throw  

the sandal and be like I told you you know you  got to listen to me or something like that I got  

interested in this concept of Chun because a lot  of my Mexican friends always joke about it you  

know obviously their mothers always joke about  it and I was like this is so interesting and I  

spent like a few minutes researching this concept  learning more about it like where it came from and  

I did everything in Spanish of course I learned a  lot of new words I had a lot of fun I asked sh to  

explain it to me to have a little conversation  and this way practicing all the habits I Shar  

with you before the next simple habit you can  Implement is following people on social media  

I know that many people usually waste time on  social media but if you follow influencers who  

speak your target language you will learn a lot of  things just set a 10-minute timer for yourself and  

every single day check their new posts you will  be exposed to informal language you will learn  

a lot of cultural things and you will also learn  what things are popular right now in this specific  

country like maybe Trends or songs so I highly  recommend it it was actually something that I did  

with with English when I was a teenager and I was  in high school because I really wanted to you know  

maybe like make an English-speaking friend but I  was very shy so I decided to just follow a bunch  

of influencers on Instagram and you know watch  their stories their reals and their posts and see  

what language they're using and this way I learned  a lot of slang and finally habit number five is  

immersion walks you can make them as long as you  want to but I would say stting from 20 minutes is  

pretty good this habit will be especially amazing  for busy people when I work a lot and I don't go  

outside my house I feel very tired and then at  one moment I decide to take a break go for a walk  

and listen to something in a foreign language  I usually listen to podcasts and Audi books  

and a lot of different topics and I learn so many  things while also walking so like doing something  

good for my body instead of sitting in front of  my my computer all day so this habit combines  

physical activity with learning and for a lot of  people this really helps with memory retention  

learning something while exercising becomes a  lot more effective and a lot more fun I think  

it's going to be it for this video if you liked it  don't forget to give it a thumbs up and subscribe
