From Struggle to Joy: How I Learned a Language | My Language Classes
How I Stopped Struggling and Started Enjoying Learning a New Language
A few years ago, I decided to learn Spanish. At first, it was exciting—I downloaded all the apps, made flashcards, and watched YouTube videos. But after a few months, I hit a wall. I could understand some words, but forming sentences felt impossible. I’d freeze up when trying to speak, afraid of making mistakes. It was frustrating, and I almost gave up.
Then, something changed. I realized I was approaching language learning the wrong way. Instead of treating it like a school subject, I started making it a natural part of my life.
Here’s what helped me:
I stopped aiming for perfection. I accepted that mistakes are part of the process. Kids don’t learn languages by studying grammar first—they learn by trying, failing, and trying again.
I found content I genuinely enjoyed. I started watching Spanish TV shows with subtitles, listening to music, and even following Spanish-speaking influencers. Learning became fun instead of a chore.
I practiced speaking early, even if I felt silly. I talked to myself, narrated my daily routine, and joined online language exchanges. My Spanish wasn’t great at first, but I slowly got better just by using it.
I focused on phrases, not just words. Instead of memorizing random vocabulary, I learned useful sentences and expressions that I could actually use in conversations.
I made it part of my daily routine. Even if it was just 10 minutes a day, consistency made a huge difference. Little by little, it all added up.
Now, I’m not fluent (yet!), but I can hold conversations, express myself, and—most importantly—I enjoy the process.
If you’re struggling to learn a language, don’t be too hard on yourself. Keep going, have fun with it, and remember: you don’t have to be perfect to communicate. Just start speaking, and the rest will follow.
