I've had quite a few questions coming in on how you know when it's the right time to start reading:

❓How do you know when you're not a total beginner anymore and you should maybe start reading or using your new StoryLearning app?

❓What level of understanding do you need to be at to actually get something from content?

❓I purchased your short stories in French and I can get a little bit of the plot, but not much. And rereading doesn't seem to help. I'm looking up words, but a week later it's all gone.

I'll show you how to read the right way in this episode of the podcast.

 In this episode, I'm going to go rapid fire through questions on speaking your new language, because a lot of people are asking me about freezing up, people switching to English or being shy and anxious.

These are real problems. What's interesting is that most of them aren't linguistic problems. They're not about learning the language. They're about use of the language. And the thing about using a foreign language is that it involves people.

When it comes to people, we all have all different kinds of struggles, from social anxiety to shyness, to self-imposed pressure. So we're going to get into how to fix that in this episode.

 How do you read  in a foreign language if you cannot read the alphabet or the script yet?  How can you read if you can't actually read, if you see what I mean?

If you've spent more than 10 seconds in my world, you will have heard me drone on and on and on about the power of reading for language learning.

But how do you actually do that if you are learning a language where the script is different? I'm going to talk you through how to deal with different alphabets and scripts this in this video.

Because the short answer here is, yes, we still want to read from the beginning, but you do have to make a few adaptations depending on the language that you are learning.

 I'm lazy, I'm bored,  I'm not motivated, studying is so hard, I don't have an hour a day to study. These are all things that I, at various points in my life, have told myself about language learning.

And as a result, I end up not doing any study. And it's a real shame because in order to get good at a language, you do actually have to sit down and study. 

But there is a trick that I have found to get me to study that's almost embarrassingly simple. And I'm going to dedicate this entire video to this one trick.
