My tips for learning a new language

I was thinking about some tips for  learning a new language. First, we have to be ready to laugh at ourselves because sometimes we are going to make mistakes, but that doesn't matter when our goal is learning.   we us ourselves  or you your yourself, be consistent
Second, it's a good idea listen to music, that help you a lot to learn new vocabulary and to improve pronunciation. And if you are learning spanish, you can watch a soap opera (telenovela), it's a good way to learn how we talk, and the real meaning of the words.
You need to practice, and I think that's why we are here on Italk. Talk about everything, I mean weather, directions, opinions, sports, technology, work and whatever you want.
And let me tell you something, when you try to think in the language that you are learning, the things are easier, because when you translate everything, you're just memorizing words and phrases. Of course this is not easy, and as I said, you are going to make mistakes, but you are going to learn.
That's my opinion :)
