- Hello, my dear friends, you are the most important part of this video!
I made this video based on your questions and comments on the community. I hope it can answer your questions and give you inspiration.
There are thousands of ways to learn a language, some of you must feel confused and lost, so this video will guide you to make a simple and well organized plan to start your language learning journey.
The examples in this video are just a way to show you the logic of building a clear plan. I have tried many methods and made different types of plans to study languages, I am creative and flexible to make and change the plans too, it is actually a good way to boost your motivation by doing new exercises and changing the routine.
But the core of all good plans is always-- motivation and discipline.
In this video, I give you 3 steps to make any study plan:
00:00 Intro
01:29 Know your learner profile
02:45 Step 1: setting goals
05:41 Step 2: self-assessment
06:47 Step 3: make a plan

Je découvre votre canal et vous remercie Zoé pour l'excellence de vos interventions, celle-ci proposant une méthodique précise, bien structurée et personnalisable. Je suis bilingue F/D, et ai appris l'allemand plus vite en travaillant en usine et en vivant en collocation avec des Allemands qu'en étudiant à l'école - l'enseignement était à l'époque un désastre. J'étudie le russe à l'université à Minsk, et ai fait plus de progrès en anglais, la langue commune des expats. Je parviens à comprendre 2 Australiens de Brisbane parlant de foot, ce qui ne faisait pourtant pas partie du but recherché. Par contre je patine en russe et ne parviens pas à dépasser le plateau de A2 et peine toujours à comprendre les employés de banque ou des administrations, bien que j'écoute activement chaque jour les podcasts en russe.
Avez-vous un tuyau pour franchir cet écueil sur lequel les déferlantes quotidiennes viennent frapper de plein fouet les esprits les plus motivés ?
Was die slavischen Sprachen anbelangt, bzw die Russische, bin ich mir da nicht so sicher, dass die TPRS Methode angewendet werden kann, ohne sich vorher eine solide grammatische Kenntnis angeeignet zu haben. Haben Sie einige Tipps zur Erleichterung des Aneignungsprozesses der russischen Sprache zu teilen, wäre ich Ihnen äusserst dankbar.
I've been learning languages for almost two years now, but not effectively. I'll get excited and do too much, burn out, forget stuff, etc. Your video has kind of been a calm reminder to start smaller and work my way up with my languages. All of your tips and guidelines are invaluable to me, thank you!
same! good luck
I have been learning Dutch very irregularly for the past few years but have only ever studied very sporadically with ineffective methods and thus, have only been able to reach an A2 level in the language. In the past few weeks however, I have started dedicating 30 minutes to an hour per day to study, using mainly podcasts, television shows and TH-cam videos as well as my Dutch dictionary for vocabulary. I try and write 1-2 times per week to my family in the Netherlands via Facebook messenger and am already finding that my language skills are improving. I find that I can understand more than I can speak, so I will need to focus on conversing in the language, in the coming months. By the end of this year, I am hoping to reach an upper B1 level in the language and hopefully by next year I can reach an upper B2 level. My biggest problems have been getting too excited about different languages and study them for a week before getting bored and moving on, as well as being embarrassed to speak the language amongst family for fear of not being understood and of course, using ineffective methods but I am hoping that I am now on track to be speaking proficient Dutch by 16 and German by 19 ( I will major in German and History when I go to university in 2 years time).
@@patrickvandijk9187 that’s amazing! I hope you continue to make good progress :)
I believe in you. You can do it. Please never give up for your dreams ❤️❤️❤️
oh yea same here :’)
Wow, the fact you can speak 7 languages AND do a PHD/lecture at uni in parallel is absolutely amazing, you are an inspiration!
And this is why almost everyone cannot do seven languages at once.
Hi Zoe, I'm super interested in the books you have in the background. If you ever decide to make a video on them I'll definitely watch👍❤️
Yes! A book tour video🤓
Yeah that would certainly be interesting.
@@zoe.languages I see Assimil there...I have it too! Helped me a lot!
@@zoe.languages Yes, and please don't shy away from recommended great sociology books (or books related to research)!
Yeah definitely!
*1st step: Research the language*
*2nd step: Prepare the tools*
1. A main learning resource (book, website youtube channel)
2. An alphabet book or app
3. An excel table or notebook
4. A spaced repetition app (Anki, Quizlet)
5. A dictionary (with audio and conjugasion feature)
*3rd step: Choose a resource*
CRITERIAS:
1. With good quality and video
2. Each lesson has a short conversation, grammar points, a word list
*4th step: Make a study plan and know when to practice with a native speaker*
STUDY PLAN VIDEO:
th-cam.com/video/mS5Y69v0X7s/w-d-xo.html
WHEN TO START SPEAKING WITH NATIVES?
- When you have a basic structure of the language
- At least 100 high frequency words and basic grammar concept (pronouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, nouns)
HOW TO STUDY A LESSON?
1. Listen to the audio
2. Check new words and grammar points
3. Repeat with the audio
Add new words to the lesson
Ex: Just learned how to say ‘good’, how can i say ‘bad’?
Just learned how to say “He is a student”, how can i say it using ‘I’, ‘You’, ‘Us’?
- Make simple sentences from the beggining, with the words you learned from the lesson
- Insert this sentences in your spaced repetition app (Anki, Quizlet), and review them
- Don’t review just the word you want to, but the whole sentence
-When you see a new verb, don’t just learn it alone, but learn it’s conjugasion
TIP: Make sentences that relate to your daily life
HOW TO STUDY GRAMMAR?
- Don’t write everything down
- Don’t just copy, make phrases on your own
Thank youuu
@@juni7221 no problem :)
Thank you dude !
Increíble! Muchas gracias!!
UFFFF gracias bro!!
I really liked this video Zoe! As I've written before, I study 6 languages simultaneously but I've felt that I need to set short-term goals and bring more structure into a particular language. I feel so great watching Chinese shows on Netflix now for example and being able to catch more and more words as my studies progress. So, to everyone on this journey, never give up because consistency pays off! I always look forward to your videos on my TH-cam feed! 😌
Where are you from
What a beautiful message, my friend. Thanks for sharing. You are wonderful
Can someone learn English with me
Glad to know I'm not the only crazy one to learn 6 (or maybe more) languages at once 😅
@@Jin_music_de_official heh heh, you and me both, lol. I'm so hooked. Been learning various languages on and off over the years and watching videos like this as well as several other polyglots like Steve Kauffman and Olly Richards have really inspired me to brush up on them and made me realize it's ok, I'm not crazy.
Seeing Zoe do 4 at a time made me feel ok because I thought maybe I'm nuts or something. I'm focusing on them all at various levels and they are all from different language families (except for French and Spanish).
I'm immersing myself in Spanish at the moment but the rest I'll do in smaller degrees so as not to get myself too confused, lol.
I hope you are going strong and enjoying it.
I'm studying 3 languages simultaneously. One is as a master and the 2 of them are as a discoverer so thank you for the advice. Just started to make a general and short time plan.
Wow, you are so talent. Good luck in this process
This is precisely the kind of rigid structure and analysis that I need, as my language learning has been so scattered and disorganised for years. Great work, Zoe!
How smart woman. Honestly, not just only to teach, but your character build everyone, your vibes are the one most i like your channel, Zoe! motivated each other, and still inspired and educate.
I liked this video very much. The honesty and assertiveness in answering people's questions are really remarkable. Keep it up Zoe!
Thank you 🥰
It's exactly what I need, before I watched your video, I was feeling so confused about how should I improve my English and where should I start. For many years my English didn't improve at all, but now I understand why. Thank you so much, Zoe.
For what it's worth, your written English is great.
I love your videos! You're the only person I have found that is super real about learning languages. Other people on YT are like, "You just have to do it, just spend a lot of time every day, immerse yourself and talk to lots of people in your target language" which is not always possible. I've learned that people have different levels of ability when it comes to how 'easy' it is to learn a language. Some people pick it up easily, some people struggle a lot. I struggle tons, I've failed at 2 languages and I'm currently now working on a completely different language and I'm not going to give up! Good luck everyone (:
This was extremely helpful for me! Thank you so much for making this video! As a new Korean learner as well as a freshman in high school, having this vid show how to set up an effective study plan is really useful for me! You have such a concise and easy to understand way of explaining things! Seeing you show and explain how you juggle such a busy schedule has given me motivation to be able to strive under pressure! Thank you again!
I plan to learn Korean and I really needed your video since I’m unfortunately a not so organized person 😭. Thank you for all your tips !!!
Samee!! I am studying Korean too and i find zoe's videos very helpful
Thank you so much Zoe! A lot of people here in the Netherlands speak more languages, me unfortunately just 1, but i am not ashamed anymore, at least i try to learn Turkish and I am very slow, but i tell people honestly i have a 6year plan! So your positive view on learning a language makes me want to to the best I can do! Thank you so much!
Türkiye ye hiç geldiniz mi
Love the Netherlands!
Good on you Roxanna.. keep going 👍
@@Maria-by5ok thank you so much!!!
@@pepsicolla123nice to hear that! do you visit here often? 😊
This is by far the best video I have watched on creating a good study plan, and you provided so many good examples! Would love a video on the language learner profiles :)
Your videos are gold, Zoe! Thank you so much. I've been learning languages for years and your concrete tips are beyond helpful.
I’ve been studying Korean for 5years. However, I was very inconsistent and confused on how I should go about studying. I recently became an Elementary Music Teacher and strategizing and planning is definitely what I need to work on through the summer. Thank you for your guidance.
When I saw those books on the shelves, I realized the huge difference between you and me
Salut Zoe!
Vos vidéos m'inspirent vraiment. Je suis brésillienne et ma première langue étragère a été aussi le français et aussi par loisir, ce qui m'a aidé beaucoup dans mes études dans le master en Histoire. Par contre, malgré soit nécéssaire, l'anglais c'est plus difficile pour moi d'apprendre avec plaisir et encouragement. Je comprends la majorité de vos vidéos en anglais (les sous-titres en français aident beaucoup), je lis quelques sujets, mais parler....
Maintenant j'étudie coréen et arabe. Ce sont de deux langues que j'ai toujours aimé (comme le japonais, l'allemand..... ^^), mais la deuxième je suis dans l'alphabétisation encore. Cette vidéo c'est vraiment utile. Merci beaucoup! ^^
¡Gracias Zoe! 👍👍
Hi Zoe, thank you for another inspiring and helpful video! ✨️ I liked the way you separated between discoverer and master levels here. Also demonstrating how to create a study plan was very useful - I find I lost my structure the last 2 weeks and have been aimlessly studying French, like you mentioned, which results in feeling frustrated and that I'm not learning as effectively. So, a great reminder for me to go back to my plan and persist with structure and consistency in routine! Merci encore et j'espère tu vas bien 😊
Hi Zoe! I'm new here. I really love learning new languages but until now I couldn't reconnect with this passion of mine that has been put aside from a long time ago. You're really an inspiration. I can only hope you keep making this amazing content. You have gained another faithful follower. Thanks a lot!
Thank you Zoe, this is exactly what I needed. I was feeling stuck with my language learning. I will follow your tips now! Thanks for the inspiration
This is the first time that I see a plan for people who WORK. Usually, people who talks about study plans they talk as we have lots of free time. This plan is for REAL people.
Thank you!!!!
These profiles are such a sociology student approach to this topic and I love it! I think a lot of people will find this useful regardless of their level and schedule. Great job!
Actually I will add more sociological perspective and methods in future videos🤓😉
This video couldn't have come at a better time. I've been scouring the internet for good language learning material and busy drawing up a study plan. I've already been immersing myself mostly in Spanish to get back to the level I was previously and more, but I need to structure that and all the other bits and pieces I'm learning. I just love languages and you and Steve Kauffman, Olly RIchards, and various other polyglots have really inspired me to learn all my languages properly. This time I'm enjoying it so much more as I'm not delving into loads of grammar and verb conjugations etc. I'm just enjoying it so much, mostly listening at the moment and following some of Olly and Steve's recommendations. I'm learning so much more so fast and even watched a movie in Spanish the other night with no subtitles. I was able to understand quite a lot. This is way more fun!
Hi, Zoe.
This video is the sincronicity I needed to get back in the right path as I listen to my target language, French, every single day but still have difficulty to write or speak confidently. Of course my comprehension level is much higher even though I've been a bit unfocused on my main goal of becoming B2!! Therefore I shall thank you for sharing these tips and that beautiful energy. Greetings from Spain!!
Zoe, thank you for the video. You are so eloquently spoken and you share real advice that utilizes science. I thought I'd heard every bit of advice, the same thing on and on again from the internet, but you contributed something new. Thank you
Probably the best video I've ever seen on the topic so far! Thank you!! 💜
i loved this video , and you are right in everything , I have 6 months learning english and I just started study french , one of my targets is to be polyglot . and I Practice with all those videos and at the same time you inform me about many important things for learning, you inspire me a lot to go ahead with my learning, really appreciate your advices.
I really love this video! i have been watching videos about language plans for a few days, because i was feeling a little down and desmotived about my own way to study and not being consistenly in it. So, this kind of videos are helping me a lot, seriously! Thank you so much
Merhaba Zoe! I love learning new languages, and have been learning Turkish for four years now. I definitely started out as a discoverer, but now I want to move on to masters as I am in a masters program where I am using Turkish sources. This video was super helpful for me in planning my academic language journey! Çok teşekkür ederim!
Thank you so much for this video, Zoe. I have a lot of thinking to do because I have some lofty language goals. This is a great help!! ❤️❤️❤️
这真是我在youtube上看到的最有用的study tips了！感谢🙏
Zoe, thanks so much for this video. A light bulb went off in my head as I've been wandering aimlessly in my language study for about a year. Your video made me realize I'm not applying any of the goal setting and time management skills I used to earn my Master's and PhD. There was no school establishing a structure and timeline for my language learning and I didn't bother creating one of my own. This video made me realize why I've been lost and not really making progress. If you don't know where you are going, and you don't have a plan on how to get there, it's easy to get lost. The journey then becomes more of wandering around in a maze rather than traveling down a highway to a destination.
As an Iranian i wish i learn Japanese like you. You are amazing and beautiful.
to be honest your different videos really helps to me never give up and continue learning immediately several languages like to Turkish language 🇹🇷 and also improving English language, and for talk with different other people from Poland 🇵🇱, I'm learning Polish language and in my opinion that amazing that you're can speaking in so many languages and you really inspiring to me go next to my all goals.
This is so inspiring!☺💗 How do you manage learning and even improving languages while doing your PhD?! Unbelievably impressive!👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you making this video. I have been aimlessly trying to learn a language for a long time. Now I see where I have gone wrong and can do better.
非常感谢zoy！你真的是我的救命恩人💞作为一个学习中文的阿拉伯人我觉你拍的这段视频既有用也给了我大开眼界~~
Thanks Zoe! This video was really helpful! I've gained a lot of information on how to learn my Japanese. Thanks!
Thank you Zoe, you're the first TH-cam blogger which I pressed the bell on the channel❤️
Hey Zoe, I really enjoyed watching this video! I learned a lot of new things that I'm going to integrate in my study routine. Thank you! 🥰
I like this level of discussion, many channels are for beginners or discoverers only, but I like the focus on the master goal, which I don’t see many polyglot channels for
You’re a very intelligent person, Zoe. I speak Greek and English ... and I’m studying Spanish, Portuguese and Japanese!
Thank you for sharing this video! It can be honestly overwhelming to learn a new language from scratch and I appreciate the honest insights that you have shared in this video. As someone who likes learning to be more or less structured, I love how you went over general guidelines to keep in mind when creating a language study plan and shared your own personal examples. Just subscribed! ^^
thank you for your advice! i just realized that my difficulty is lack of exercise to build sentences. thank you for breaking down the plan. you inspired me a lot! I'll try to make my own plan!
سعيدة انى تعرفت على قناتك بجد شجعتنى جدا، امنية حياتى ان اجيد عدة لغات وان اتحدثهم بطلاقة. تحياتى
I really appreciated the subtitles in french! they are really helpful for connecting the English words to french since I'm learning it!
the spark and passion u have Zoe, ur dream is insallah close to coming true!! Amen!!
this was a big help, i will definitely be referring back to this video when i start my language learning journey. thank you!
Out of gratitude I am commenting for the algorithm. 😄
I started to learn Japanese last year and I’m trying to figure out how can i learn more efficiently and this video has helped me a lot. Thank you
You are so inspiring Zoé thank you for all the precious advice and suggestions you share with us. Et merci pour introduire Olivier Roy je viens de découvrir ses œuvres grâce à toi merci beaucoup ❤️
Thank you Zoe for this helpful video. I am American-Palestinian. I have been living in France for 4 years now and I still have a lot of difficulty because I don't really like the language to being with, but my kids and husband all speak it. I don't like to speak in public because I make too many mistakes. I keep making the same mistakes and I just get discouraged, especially around family members, so I don't want to sound stupid. I want to speak French fluently because I have the privilege of living in the country and because I would like to become a French citizen since my husband and children are. I will definitely watch more of your videos!
I hope you're doing well!
It was really helpful. Thank u💗
Also as a persian girl, i'm really happy that u are learning this language, have a great time with it.😍
Im learning ASL currently, and want to make my plan more concrete. I love this video because most videos explaining this subject are either to hands on and have no room for flexibility or are to much of a lecture with no sure steps to take you forward. This was a perfect balance of both thankyou so much good luck with your languages
Thank you so much for the advice. I really learning multiple languages can change someone’s life 💯
You're amazing, this is exactly what I needed after hitting a wall in learning my target language for academic purposes 🥰Thank you for the video!!
Thank you so much Zoe, really useful!
Zoe, you inspire me! Thank you so much!!
your speaking English is also improved a lot comparing with one year ago.
I love your content so much !!!! It's really enlighting honestly X)
I speak 6 laguages because I study with your plan♥thank you very much zoe
You are an inspirational to me and I am so glad to have found your channel!!

Hi Zoe. 🤓 我也是一个PhD student，这一次的视频真的给了我好多启发！感谢！🙏
Hi Zoe, i just discovered your channel and i find it super helpful. I'm currently learning Italian and Spanish and thanks to your video, now I can set a realistic goal for each language and plan my journey of language learning for a year ahead. Thanks Zoe!

Thank you so much for your video.
I have been learning English for two years. First of all, I have learned two languages at the same time but have not worked for me. I am focusing on one language now.
It is perfect. My goal is two dividends in one year.
You are tips and guidelines useful for me.
Hi zoe, thank you so much for charing this information with us, really i enjoy watching your videos, and i learn a lot from them.
Love from Morocco 🇲🇦.

This was very helpful! Thanks for sharing, now I am going to make a plan!
Hey I want to say thank you so much for your guidance 🙇🏻♀️🙏🏻 I just finished making my goals following the directions in this video. Onto the next steps would be implementing and maintaining them and for me usually are the hardest steps in my language learning journey. Would very much appreciate if you can give some advice on those topics such as how to build strong work ethic, and etc. Then again very nice video, keep going!
السلام عليكم , الحقيقة انا استفدت كثيرا من المحتوى فى صفحتك وسعيد لكى بتعلمك للغة العربية , انا محمد من مصر محب لتعلم اللغات وهدفى تعليم اللغة العربية لغير الناطقين بها وانا فى مرحلة الاعداد لهذه الرحلة , شكرا لكى استمرى

JUST INSPIRING Thank you soooooo much !
Good luck
Danke für dein hilfreiches Video☺️
I’ve been waiting for this one 🥰 clicked immediately but I’ll be back to take notes. 💜
Hi Zoe, I once happened to attend a conference where Oliver Roy and others spoke about peace and comunication between religions and even if I didn't know anything about him I enjoyed his speech the most. Earing you talking about him reignited my wonder, I'm going to read something about his work now.
Bravo Zoe! J'adore le contenu de cette chaîne TH-cam ! 💕
Great video !✨as a person who’s learning French as my third lenguaje it was helpful!🙌🙌🙌🙌
Danke sehr Zoe!!! Du hilfst mir so so viel!! Gerade lerne ich Deutsch und deine Tips sind super!! In der Zukunft ich möchte mehr Sprachen lernen, und du gibst mihr so viel Motivation für das. Danke für alles 💛💛💛💛
In der Zukunft *möchte* ich mehr Sprechen…
Ich lerne auch gerade Deutsch und ich finde, das Verb „möchte“ sollte in diesem Satz an zweiter Stelle stehen.
@@tychen3191 Danke sehr!!! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Excellent practical, and academic, advice. I have a great-interest in words and music. I wish you good-luck in your endeavours.
Hi, Zoe! I just want to tell you that this video popped up on my TH-cam tl, and I found it very useful as well as inspiring.

Great advice Zoe. New subscriber. Finding some of the structure and habits you use quite helpful. Cheers.
Thank you! Really helpful :)
I feel happy when you said you learn farsi😁. I live in Iran and farsi is my mother tongue. It would be my pleasure if I can help you learn it faster or better🌸
I am admired Zoe very much. She is always positive and encourage me learn more as well.
