Many feel that the best way to learn a new language is by moving to the country that speaks that language.
This is probably true, surrounded by new words everyday, you will soon pick up phrases, even if you are not sure what they mean!!
It's not just the language you can pick up, but also you immerse yourself in the culture, the flavours and tastes of a new culture. You soon realise it is a big world out there and there is more than one way of doing something.
It really is amazing to see what makes someone laugh, what is considered offensive and what is expected of you when you meet someone for the first time.
None of this can really be taught in schools or by reading a book, it has to be experienced.
The trouble is, when it comes to learning this way you have to actually live in a country that speaks that language or at least spend a number of months there.
That’s why the internet is so great, it has shrunk our world and learning a language does not have to be a dry and tedious exercise. Learning via Skype, speaking to a native speaker is certainly a lot cheaper than an airline ticket!
