What is more important: Psychology over knowledge. Epsode 392. It's quite clear on the knowledge part but why psychology and it's importance for any language learners?! Today's podcast is only few minutes but it is to give you something to chew on, a birds eye view on a topic. https://www.italki.com/en/post/VTsUQs5NbL1zmYnkm3edVS Psychology plays a crucial role in language learning success, impacting motivation, learning strategies, and overall proficiency. Here’s why: 1. Motivation and Self-Efficacy 2. Learning Strategies and Cognitive Processes 3. Emotional and Social Factors: 4. Error Correction and Feedback: In summary, integrating psychological principles into language learning enhances motivation, optimizes learning strategies, manages emotional challenges, and ultimately leads to greater proficiency and success. It’s not just about memorizing vocabulary and grammar; it’s about understanding the learner’s mind and tailoring the learning process accordingly. Therefore, in my 1-1 training classes I focus on this the majority of the time and I've completed over 20 thousand coaching calls from managers to vice presidents of huge corporations and they tell me - it works! Come and try for yourself!

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! 🚀
