It’s hard to stay motivated when you’re trying to learn a new language. However, I’ve learned that by combining your entertainment time and your language learning time, this is an easy way to stay motivated as a language learner. I personally like to use Immersive Translate to generate subtitles to my CZcams and Netflix, and that’s how I’ve been learning Vietnamese, my target language. I’ve already learned a lot so far, which is really great.

There are so many resources out there, but not all of them work for everyone. For me, what’s worked the best is Immersive Translate. It’s a browser extension that supports over 100+ languages. I personally use it to translate webpages and documents, and even to watch my shows and movies on Netflix every day, which has really helped me integrate myself in my target language. It’s been very helpful so far, and I couldn’t be happier.

Can you give a feedback about italki?

what is the background music in your outro?

Allahumma barik, your progress in Japanese is really good, it’s a language I want to learn as well. Keep up the good work! Btw try swapping out the music for another audio or go without. Your video has much benefit and I want for my sis what I’d want for myself hence not utilizing music due to impermissibility

Well done! Immerse yourself in a language for me is the best way to learn that language, thank you for the video it's very inspiring for me ❤.

Great suggestions, I used some of these but your information is extremely helpful! Thank you so much!! 😊

Thanks for sharing, it helps a lot if you're learning without friends/ attending class. At this point, I've only used duolingo. It helped with my memorization of the character chart. I printed some hira writing worksheets too. Ps. You're very well spoken in this vid 💯

Thank you for sharing this content with us!

Good job! Wish luck with Japanese, I`m currently learning Chinese.

Omg I love daily Japanese with naoko! I love that she puts the Japanese caption and repeats words. Her videos are well structured. I also recommend “miku real Japanese” she has a ton of grammar lesson plus she has conversations for listeners!

don’t be shy to share your experiences and thoughts below too! I really appreciate connecting and hearing from other learners too <3

hi! I just started learning Mandarin too. Around the same time you did actually. But I want to say don't forget to give yourself credit. It's amazing that you finished HSK 1! That is still a great accomplishment. Congrats!

Chào bạn, tôi cũng rất thích học tiếng Trung

I started learning Mandarin around the same time as you. This is my first time seriously self studying a language. It has been difficult for me because usually I tend to give up on something unless I can see visual progress and without tests and grades I don't have that visual progress. There is a Chinese muscian I like and I have never been able to read the titles to her songs, but now I am able to read some. That type of visual progress felt better than any grade I have ever recieved and got me really excited to continue. Im excited to see your videos in the future.

谢谢！ I started like a month ago and have been doing duolingo and tofu learning for memorizing pinyin and hanzi. I just got the HSK 1 books and I'm excited to learn more about building sentences and grammer though I heard from other learners that the grammer isn't as extensive as other mandarin books

Also you're really pretty!! 😊

こんにちわ！ 也你好😊 Thank you for sharing your video, I am learning Japanese myself for about 1 year now, and my Chinese is pretty bad since I only can write calligraphy with a brush, I guess I have a talent to it because I don't know the language but know how to write. I'm also a future chemistry student!! Good luck with your studies, you're sooo talented and I wish you to accomplish all your goals!! I also know French and a little Danish, since I have Danish roots. 😁

That's great ❤❤❤

New viewer here! I love your attitude and general outlook towards language learning. I've been learning mandarin for over a year now, and I'm studying really hard to try and solidly reach HSK 4, and I just want to say! 加油！The beginning with mandarin is definitely the hardest-- once the tones stop feeling so foreign, it starts to be a lot easier to remember them and pronounce them, and once you have a bunch of radicals and characters memorized, it's a lot easier to memorize new words because they'll often reuse the same radicals or even whole characters. 谢谢你的视频，我期待你的下个！

Your video quality is so awesome! Just found your channel. You should totally keep dreaming to live in Japan, you never know! 😊

You're so right about the "corporate academic setting" ppl use to study languages. Maybe we are just brainwashed into thinking you need to be doing only "serious and productive" things in a "seriuos and productive" way to feel accomplished!

i love that you talked about how language learning isnt that deep 😭 its so true ?? ive been thinking of this too lately. sometimes we take it too seriously but really, we could be making it a fun and lighter process

Hey! A mandarin learner here!❤i have been studying mandarin for like- 3 years+ now😅 i just want to say your vids inspire me alot to continue learning and improving my Chinese!😊 Even though ive learned for that long i am still pretty much a beginner bc i still can't understand fast chinese even though they are asking simple quetions like ”你知道你要做下个星期？“ but im starting to notice my improvements! And if im discouraged i always remind myself what my goals on why i started learning it!🫶🏻✨ Ps. I recommend watching donghua/dongman for Chinese 😉

make sure to turn the quality up hehe and comment your own thoughts and things you wanna share !!

Hi! Chinese person here, you can actually find a lot of Chinese media on CZcams but you would have to search words in Traditional Chinese (mainly Taiwanese content)

Thanks CZcams algorithm to show me your channel. I just got here, but I consider myself a fan because I like your charisma and your way of facing the most commons obstacles for languages beginners. I'm learning Japanese, and even if I know there's a long way to go, I feel more motivated to not give up.

this will be a great series

This has motivated me so much!!! I’ve been learning Korean for over 3 years and started Mandarin last year. I also started learning Vietnamese recently and i speak some Japanese!!!❤❤❤

this is actually so amazing! i am learning japenese and i've been thinking about learning korean, but i've always worried about how it would be to learn two languages at the same time, ur vid gave me motivation to start!! good luck with ur learning, and hope u keep updating us with ur progress and tips <3

I'm excited to have found your channel! I've been learning Mandarin for 6 years now and dabbling in Japanese from time to time along with some other languages. I've watched most Cdramas on CZcams and there are a few channels that speak Mandarin even though CZcams isn't used much in China. It is a big undertaking being a beginner in Mandarin but if you focus on being consistent, you'll make progress. I wish you well in your language learning journey!

Your videos inspire me it's so relaxing ❤ I also want to learn a language and you help me a lot! Thank you 💖

Wow! You’ve made wonderful progress in Japanese after only 4 months! I’ve also started the GENKI 1 textbook recently. I took one semester of Mandarin in school but you’re making me want to pick it up again haha. I also found that it can be a bit difficult to stay committed when you’re self-studying languages, especially with school and work. Having study buddies or teachers definitely help!

im also learning chinese, im hsk2-hsk3 level! and a bit of japanese, but not really focusing on it

put the quality to higher if the video turns out low !! also lmk about any of your experiences and thoughts too<3

That is a beautiful kit, I should defiantly buy this.
