The first and most intensive class I take is the Language
Acquisition: Social & Psychological Dimensions by Dr. Alex. With the
three-week class, I need to complete an assignment in which I am required to
start learning a completely new language. I have to keep a daily study log for
the period of three weeks and at the end I have to write up a report in which I
have to describe my new language study and discuss which theories applied to my
experience as a language learner and which ones did not apply. I also have to
compare and contrast my experience of that of my classmates so as to analyze
the reason why I have learnt relatively more or less than the others have done.
I decided to take up Spanish! The methods I am going to use
are:
- Listen to the audio CD Dr. Alex gave me for half hour a day
- Do some more practice on an online material: http://www.123teachme.com/
- Listen to Spanish Radio online: When I started studying my English ten years ago, I also listened to the BBC World Service everyday, eventh ough I didn’t get anything until about 3 years later.
