English is my mother tongue. Besides, I can speak French and Spanish. I studied
the two languages when I was at high school. Now, I am still learning Spanish at the
University. As for me, mastering a foreign language is not easy. After studying a
language, practice is very necessary and useful. Traveling to the country where the
target language is spoken is very helpful, but if you cannot speak the language well
enough you will certainly have troubles. I also frequently go to the movies, watch
movies on television, and listen to the radio in the language I am trying to learn.
Reading is another good way to learn. Books are good, but I personally think
newspapers and magazines are better. However, getting some knowledge of the
language is the most important thing. Grammar and vocabulary should be mastered
before learning anything then.
