yeah, check out polyglots on youtube. Stephen Krashen and Steve Kaufmann have good advice. Yonger polyglots are more after views than helping you.
I am going to summarize the ideas of the 2 Steves here:
- you want more input (reading and listening) than output (speaking and writing)
- you need comprehensive input (stuff where you understand quite a bit 60-85% of the words. 60% is actually low but its hard do come across good materials so you do with what you can find)
- you need compelling input ASAP (this means stuff that is interesting to you. stuff that you would gladly enjoy in your native language. Obviously in the first few months of language learning this will be hard to do. This is also 1 of the main responsibilities of the teacher - find suitable materials that are interesting to the individual student)
Here are also some minor tips most of which I took from Kaufmann:
- don't learn the 1000 most common words. These words are so common you will learn them without even trying.
- don't study family trees, fruits, colors, foods, festivals, even greetings. Those things tend to be boring. So how do you learn those? Each time you come across them you check the unknown word and "oh wow this is the word for the color yellow, now I know"
The idea is to learn the word, only when it is important to you.
- you can check out the video on youtube about "automatic language growth"
- flashcards are very inefficient
There are a lot more tips, but the most important thing that is frequently missing is tons of "novel comprehensive and compelling input"
