One-on-one with someone you live with is the best way...relatives, boyfriend/girlfriend or living in a homestay where there is a real commitment to actively help you learn as well as self-study of the basics. In short, you need self-directed study plus lots of access to real chances for practice and communication and error correction. You need the error correction and reformulation to bridge from being a basic sentence level communicator to a more dynamic, idiomatic, rich and clear self-expression. Plus, to learn to speak, you have to speak. To learn to write, you have to write. To learn to listen, you have to listen...etc That's just my two cents. I studied Japanese in Japan and I spent a lot of time memorizing words and phrases. Most of my best learning, though was when I could native speakers to have a conversation with me that was natural, but a little slow, and when they would repeat what they said when I asked them. They don't correct, though. I think getting corrected is an important piece of the puzzle. ... ... ... A lot of native speakers, when asked "Could you repeat that?" will recognize that you didn't understand and then say it more simply. If you're looking for directions, for example, this is great. You just want the info. But if you're looking to LEARN, work with a teacher. A teacher, when asked "Could you repeat that?" will say the exact same thing again, with all the pauses and mistakes intact, so you can catch what was actually said. If you want to learn, you don't want someone to dumb down the language. You want the REAL THING, just a little slower, and repeated a few times. This is why boyfriends and girlfriends are good teachers -- you get familiar with them and you can be really direct and ask for repetition and explanation and they'll tell you again and again. A true friend who WANTS to communicate with you is the best way to learn. IMHO...

What is the proper way to learn a language well and quickly? 1. To find natives (a girlfriend or a boyfriend) of your studing language. 2. Move to the country where people speak the language you study. 3. Find a proper tutor and buy proper coursebooks, books, films. The motivation is a proper thing.
