Here are 10 basic tips to become an effective learner 1. Develop realistic expectations for yourself; set your own goals and develop a positive attitude towards learning and earning your qualifications. 2. List your motivators for achieving your academic goals: (grades, parents, money), (mastery of material,desire to learn) and other personal reasons. 3. Make a commitment as to when you will work on an assignment. Be specific about when you want to complete it and put the date for starting the assignment on your calendar where you will see it daily.Then stick to your commitment. 4. Break down big assignments into smaller parts and work on the assignment a little at a time; set dates for completing each part. 5. If you are finding assignments difficult, complete small, easier tasks first in order to build your confidence. 6. Ask for help if you don’t understand an assignment. Obtaining clarification from a lecturer or tutor may put you back on the right track and decrease frustration. 7. Find ways to relate class material and assignments to your life or future career. 8. Find ways to deal with distracting personal problems that are making it difficult for you to focus on your academic work. 9. Minimize self-defeating behaviors and thoughts (e.g., procrastination, low confidence, wanting a “perfect” product) which may impeding academic achievement. Look for small improvements and small successes, as you change your behaviors. 10. Reward yourself when you finish each task and complete an assignment. Feel good about what you have accomplished,don’t just focus on what’s left to complete

Your question might be better phrased using either of the 2 sentences below. How to be a good student ? or How to learn effectively ? Techniques to learn include - repetition, writing the material, finding a native speaker of the language and engaging them frequently, find a restaurant offering meals and situations in your chosen language, finding a group of friends learning the same language and practising with them. watching foreign languages broadcasts and films reading books in your chosen language. choose a theme, (like going to the doctor) and think how you would say there, what you say in your native language.
