How to learn most effectively

One of our most crucial suggestions regarding language learning is the interval training, where you change between phases of studying and phases of recuperation. We suggest keeping the sessions of studying short – 10 minutes each session is the perfect amount of time for your brain. However, we also recommend several sessions of studying a day to improve your results. Using the interval technique, you are able to optimize your learning time.

Long sessions are inefficient

Sessions of 10 minutes enable you to reach a basic vocabulary (level B1 according to CEFRL) within a very short time. Which means you'll already know 1,000 words of your foreign language – a remarkable factor because standard daily newspapers do not need more than 500 unique words. If you study only once a day, you can reach your goal within 30 weeks. If you study nine times a day (and that’s only 90 minutes), you just need 5 weeks to reach level B1.

Understand first – then speak

Remark: always listen to a foreign language first. This can happen actively or passively. You can do that very easily with our brain-friendly MOVIES. After a few times of listening you’ll have absorbed the phrases and expressions, the sentence structures and dialogues completely, so that you are able to use it intuitively. You’ll start to speak in the foreign language from one day to the next day.
