Fluent in 3 Months: How Anyone at Any Age Can Learn to Speak Any Language from Anywhere in the World

The Perfect Learning Approach
The courses I listed in the previous section are generic courses in that they
provide exactly the same content for vastly different language learners. This
is why I recommend that you use them not only as a beginner but also
between sessions of doing something more direct with your language.

No course, no matter how convincing its marketing may be, can be the
one all-encompassing solution to your language learning problems. This is
why I focus on speaking, and I use studying these types of books as my
generic improvement for a few hours. But I spend the majority of my hours
either speaking the language, fixing particular issues I had in a spoken
session or in independent study, or addressing issues I may not find in these
courses.
You have to find your own learning style, and that’s why I recommend
you experiment, but do so in such a way that it is affordable and well
directed. A huge problem many language learners have is hoarding
language learning material and feeling that they can experiment a little with
it all. As mentioned previously, a survey that I ran on my blog clearly
showed that successful language learners were more likely to be those who
used less language learning material.
And as I’ve said, any time you spend researching the best materials to
buy will have been better spent actually practicing the language.
I don’t give the previous or following recommendations as examples of
the one and only way to learn a language, but as guidelines you should
consider that I have found work for many people. Even if there is
theoretically a perfect course out there for you, it would be wiser to spend
your time on an okay course and really make progress, than spend all your
time and energy searching for that perfect course. Your energy should go
into language learning, not course research. Buy an affordable course (or
find a free online alternative, such as Duolingo), use it, and get active in
other ways with your language learning!
