Revise, revise, revise everything what you learn each day.

For me, the only simplest way to learn a language is the natural way children use when they learn their native language. But, of course, it is not possible to be a child again. So, something we must do is: 1) to learn about how to learn, 2) to work a lot, 3) to be persistent, 4) to listen, read, speak and write, as much as possible, 5) to go to a country where people speak the language we want to learn, 6) to enroll in a language school, 7) to learn from our mistakes. And last, but not least, to be a member in italki. Perspiration is almost 99% and inspiration is 1%. I think we are on the right track. Good luck to you!

To use chatting site like italki is one of good ways to learn new languages because we can develop an ability to react instantly through chatting with other learners at least . However , the best way is to be a real friend with native speaker (not only internet friend) as everyone knows because there is limitation to practice other learners who are not native speakers . In my case , actually it is easier or more familiar for me to understnad Brasilian teacher's English than American because I have studied English with them , which is one of my problems for English learning . So, I try to find native speaker to practice or learn if it is possble .

Hello The most or one of the most effective and entertaining ways is to mingle with native speakers of the language if you have the chance .You will be speaking , listening and learning new words all life .

A good way, is by chatting here on italki, with motivated people. Have a dictionnary near you, or an online dictionnary, to find the words in the language you are learning, and use them directly in your conversation. That way you remember them well. Also, try finding a good online conjugator, so you can easily practice that too in your chat. And last, while chatting, ask the other if he wouldn't mind correcting your mistakes. Greetings =)
