        I   have   had   people   come   over   to   me   and   tell   me   that   they’re   interested   in   learning   a   foreign   language. They   go   on   to   say   that   they’re   only   interested   in   learning   for   example, the   spoken   version   of   Spanish   or   French   only. This   makes   sense   and   seems   straight   forward   because   languages   exist   at   the   written   and   spoken   levels. However, a   closer   analysis   of   their   intention   reveals   a   totally   different   perspective. Usually, what   these   prospective   language   students   mean   is   that   they ...

  Now, taking   classes   in   sequence   may   sound   like   the   automatic   thing   to do, but   I   have   seen   students   taking   college   level   classes   who   did   the   exact   opposite. I   never   got   to   know   what   led   them   to   make   that   choice, but   I   highly   advise   against   it. The   students   I   encountered   had   taken   higher   course   levels   before   completing   the   preceding   level. One   had   enrolled   in   Spanish   102   ahead   of   101   and   the   other   student   had   taken   Spanish   202   ahead   of   201. The   two   reached   out   to ...

     From   my   interaction   with   various   people, I   have   come   to   learn   that   the   biggest   culprit   that   hinders   them   from   pursuing   a   foreign   language   are   the   grammar   rules. And, by   grammar, I   don’t   mean   a   shortcoming   on   their   part, what   I   mean   is   that   they   let   the   rules   of   grammar   discourage   them   before   they   even   start. What   is   interesting   is   that   the   same   grammar   rules   exist   for   example, in   Swahili   and   English   and   they   never   deterred   us   from   learning   these   languages. Perhaps ...

      Never   let   your   work   pile   up   more   than   it’s   necessary. Let   me   elaborate   what   I   mean   by   this   statement. When   taking   classes, whether   in   college/online, there   are   some   courses   that   we   feel   comfortable   with   in   our   ability   to   catch   up   if   we   fell   behind. Let’s   say   for   example   we’re   at   the   beginning   of   the   semester, and   we   know   that   our   first   test   in   course #235   will   be   in   seven   weeks   time, and   so   we   decide   that   we’re   going   to   let   the   chapters   pile   ...
