5 key realities about learning a second language. 🔍 These realities apply to adult learners and, when understood, will save a lot of time and frustration. 1. It will take a lot longer than you think. ⌛ Depending on the language, the average person needs 600 to 3000 hours of practice over several years to reach fluency in speaking and listening. 2. You will always make mistakes. 🫠 The good news is that native speakers usually don’t mind and are supportive of your efforts. 3. You’ll never feel as fluent as you do in your native language. 🏖️ One major reason is that language is deeply connected to culture. 4. The memorization of lots of grammar rules is a waste of time. 🛑 Native speakers don’t know most of their own grammar. (See Dr. Stephen Krashen’s research on language acquisition.) 5. There is a “language gift.” 💡 Like any skill, language learning comes easier to some. While one person may need 1,000 hours to reach a B1 level, another may only need 200. Learning a second language requires patience and perseverance. But remember, the journey is just as important as the destination. Embrace it and enjoy the ride! 🚀
