    Snack-Sized Language Episode 35: Journaling in Your Target Language

    In this episode of the podcast, we talk about journaling and how to use it to help you with your language studies. Want to keep learning with us? Join Language Conqueror. In This Lesson, You Learned: That language journaling can look many different ways. Here are two methods I use: I journal in the languages to practice them. I journal about my language learning to assess what I've done, what I'm struggling with and what I want to get to next. Featured Trade Secret: Having trouble getting into the habit of journaling? Start by writing even just one sentence a day. Or, you can journal in other ways. For example, my daily journal is more about personal stats — my workout routine, if I studied my languages, and whether or not I've done other things related to the habits I'm trying to build. This check-in can be done in my target language! Get creative with how you journal. Mentioned in this Episode: Language Conqueror We hope you enjoyed this episode of the podcast!

    Snack-Sized Language Episode 31: Mnemonic Mastery

    In this episode of the podcast, we talk about mnemonics and how to use them to help you with your language studies. Want to keep learning with us? Join Language Conqueror. In This Lesson, You Learned: Five of types of mnemonics you can use: Acronym mnemonics: you might have learned ROYGBIV in school to memorize the colors of the rainbow, this is a great example of a spelling mnemonic. Spelling mnemonics: this is when you create sentence to help you remember how to spell a word. For example: merci in French, this could be my energetic rabbit chews ice. It's best if you create these yourself to make them more memorable. Order mnemonics: this is to help remember the order of something, like the planets or the notes of a music scale. "Every good boy deserves fun" is often used to help students remember the notes on the staff lines. Rhyme mnemonics: An example of this is: thirty days have September, April, June and November... Visual mnemonics: This is when you use a visual aid as a way to recall information and it's a very popular method used for language learning specifically. Featured Trade Secret: Try Drops! It uses visual mnemonics to help you memorize new vocabulary. It's one of my favorite tools because it's beautiful, fun, and there are tons of well-curated word lists available to you.
