Losing motivation is okay sometimes, you only need to remind yourself why you decided to study the language in the first place Myself for example learning Spanish for such a long time, and when I don´t want to do anything with the language I remind myself the main reason of starting in the first place I always keep coming back after my answers, so your main goal really matters Think about it Comment from : @speakupEnglishh

I am 14 when I chat with random people they probably can't tell that I am not a native speaker of english unless I outright tell thembrI believe that my own native language is the hardest in the world(arabic) and at this point I literally think in english its pretty crazy, it feels kind of badbranyway, just thought I'd say how I became so fluent in englishbrI didnt attend any courses, and I didnt learn much from school eitherbrI just spent a ton of time on the internet, just listening to people my intent wasnt even learning english I just enjoyed itbrand in like 2 years, here I am Comment from : @AG45

While me learning my second foreign language (French): frustrated afbrI think it's because i learned english years ago, in a way longer process, im rushing myself to learn French in the same level too quick My perfectionist personality ufortunately I know i came a lot of way (even tho im only A1) Comment from : @llamathedrama1454

it must be epic being able to speak and understand several languages Comment from : @benmarley3086

Can’t believe I’m saying this for the first time on a YouTube video but here goes 😂 I’ve purposely started to learn Polish to speak to a woman (she’s Polish) yes to impress her but also I’m not naive enough to believe we’ll end up together forever and ever… so because it’s slim to none chances to wed her or bed her, I’m constantly still trying to learn more and more to achieve intimacy, which I know I’ll never get so I’m constantly motivated to impress her knowing full well nothing will work 😂 hopefully I’ve explained that well Basically I’ve created my own paradox of motivation Comment from : @mediaguy4997

I so needed to hear this! About 15 months ago I started learning Ukrainian and I just hit a huge hit of loss of motivation 🙌🏻 trust the process Comment from : @JessentialLife

Stepping back is a good phrase Robin I often take a breather I think that people want to be good too early, they set themselves impossible targetsbrIt's a very long marathon They should stop occasionally and look back to see the hill they have climbed, that will give the bounce back into their step Comment from : @solea59

I'm concerned that I'm not smart enough to do this I've been learning Spanish for two years- for the last 11 months I've dedicated at least an hour a day to the learning process I'm a parent with a full time job, so I finding an hour out of the day means I wake up by 5 am I use Duolingo, YouTube videos, and have even recently hired a tutor Hearing in this video about someone being at an intermediate level after 3 months makes me feel horrible- as I have only tested into the intermediate level recently after 2 years of dedication Any tips? Is an hour a day not enough? When should I expect to be fluent? Comment from : @emilya9255

Great video, besides that you made an americano Comment from : @bar2062

Hey, Robin, it's really interesting to know more about how did you start learning languages Comment from : @marinaromaniuta8301

❤️ Comment from : @just1frosty516

I no longer have a goal for the language I wanted to learn So I am going to re evaluate and set goals again brIt's amazing to see that I went from a level of absolute zero to nearly being able to step my speaking and listening to intermediate Reading and writing needs so much work still Comment from : @samanthaburnell2960

I’m a native English speaker and I can speak Spanish pretty well I’ve been struggling lately learning Korean Comment from : @adog6704

I'm 15, and Arab American I can speak "meh" Arabic, I can read and write small words, and I am trying to improve I am right in-between beginner and intermediate Comment from : @wanderingsoul2758

"Trust the process" Comment from : @dalubwikaan161

This video it's just at the right place at the right time for me! Thank you!!! Comment from : @turisflora5129

I've been studying Mandarin Chinese for a bit more than a year Initially, I wanted to be able to read simple things within 2 years Not setting the bar too high greatly helpedbrbrWhile I didn't feel like giving up, at times I wondered how I would be able to keep on going, feeling I wouldn't be able to do so It's a kind of discouragement and it's also a loss of patience Although it's not a loss of motivation, it can lead to itbrbrIf you remember that studying will work anyway, that taking a step will bring you closer to your goal, that studying even a little and even when we don't notice improvements is better than not studying at all, you will keep on going You might not need as much motivation as you think to keep on going if you understand this well enough Just one step at a time As we say in Buddhism, discouragement is a form of lazinessbrbrAt some point, you might also want to get back to resources your worked with at a beginner stage Looking ahead doesn't always help, but when you look back, and you see how far you've come, when you notice how much comes easy to you by now, it helps Comment from : @ffederel

thank you so much for this Comment from : @mael2701

You should make a discord Comment from : @icehound6763

I am an introvert, so it’s very hard for me to find the courage to speak to anybody even in my native language and obviously in another So what do I do to maintain my speaking ability Comment from : @michaelfalciglia9550

I always admire your attitude Comment from : @momaamom628

losing motivation I don’t think I have enough resources to learn 🥲 Comment from : @idiot8226

I say every new day the language is going to be a little bit easier So today is the hardest it will ever be, tomorrow will be a tiny bit better etc Over time this once foreign language, is going to get easier and easier until its almost as easy as your native language Comment from : @ConnieFoster1

I'm just about ready to just give up I recently found out that all I learned through duolingo means nothing (over a year in I can't hold a conversation) wasted time 🤐 Comment from : @sharongagnist6428

Yes, Robin, I’d love to hear about your early struggles Comment from : @iknownothing-49

Today I had a break down in my class Half a year ago I moved to another country and started to learn their native language All went well till one day when my boss started to ask constantly when I am gonna speak fluently which is impossible and I understand that but that doesn't change the fact that I feel overwhelmed and isolated from nativespeakers I have only my teacher to talk to in this language and she is very understanding but I don't want to lose motivation to learn because of people that think it is a month thing to learn a new language Comment from : @dainapaegle9702

Heyyy thank you so much for all your videos ☺️☺️☺️ Comment from : @gadistimurmaluku1676

Watch tv in target language when low motivation Comment from : @rhyspas6014

I was the world's worst in Hebrew school and I still acieved my parents'goal ---me singing in Hebrew the part of the Bible we were supposed to listen to on that daynear my 13th birthday Later French came easier, ages 13 to 19 Now i'm old with a lousy memory but I'm learning Russian Comment from : @artiesolomon3292

I've been studying Italian for about 3 years, and I'm losing motivation I live in Italy, but I don't actually need to use Italian that much in my day to day life I have an Italian bf - but we always speak English, as when we met I didn't know hardly any Italian We tried switching to Italian, but its soooo difficult to change the language of a relationship And you BOTH have to really want itbrbrI don't study a lot, maybe 1 or 2 hours a day max, sometimes only 30 min I had private lessons for about 18 months, but stopped those when I realised my spoken level of Italian was much lower than what I was being taught - I felt I wasn't using what I was learning Also, I couldn't afford to continue with them brbr I would say I'm a strong B2I'm just not sure I'm using the right methods or materials In addition, I'm an introvert who doesn't seek out people, which doesn't help!brbrI've never lost motivation in 3 years, but nowI'm not sure if I've lost my "why"brbrAnyway, thanks for all your videos, I've just recently discovered youI think your channel is going to blow up soon! I wish I had your dedication and commitment to language learning! Bravo! Comment from : @rachelgregory888

I think “trust the process” is the best thing I’ve heard about learning my first language It’s easy to question if I will ever actually get there, so this is nice to think about Comment from : @NickWeston

When I lose motivation, I find that I'm usually trying too hard or expecting too much from myself My number one rule for language learning is to create one simple minimum goal for every single day and tell myself that that is my only expectation That way, it is easy to meet my goal on a daily basis and feel satisfied with my work, and the motivation that I gain from completing my goal usually leads to some extra studying The key is to make it simple and straight-forward, so I never find myself procrastinating or worse, dreading my daily studies Hope this helps :) Comment from : @brelove1414

There was a quote by James Clear that went something like, "you don't rise to the standards, you fall to the level of your habits" I think it really illustrates that it should be a grandiose movement to push the limit, but rather a slow and steady increase of the baseline of what you do So the slow and steady does win the race lolbrbrThere was also another quote for self reflection that went like "whatever your current results are, your current systems are perfectly designed to achieve those results" It really helps to put a spotlight on what might need to change in our learning or our other habits brbrGreat video again Robin!

Hello! I am still doing Duolingo and Memrise and I am taking a big risk by learning Arabic on Duolingo Comment from : @michaelewing6522

You are such a caring individual And as an expat myself and it appears that you are half cast too as am I, I am really happy for your success Comment from : @billywade7794

@Robin MacPherson Good morning Robin!!! Thank you SO MUCH for answering my question! Your a big inspiration!! I feel like Ive asked to many questions but Is there a difference between a in-person-tutor and a online-tutor? Ive just had a spike in motivation because we contacted my tutor a couple days ago and its all set , all we have to do is talk about pricing a schedule!! Comment from : @peggytrotman4173

I think Babbel helped me the most to help solidify my knowledge of verbs I wish I had the online community/resources that are available now when I was 15 ( I’m 25 ) also doing fun things can help boost your motivation Examples that helped me; find a tandem partner on tandem, play video games in Spanish, find Spanish speaking YouTube channels you’re interested in, watch cartoons in Spanish, follow Spanish speaking celebrities on social media, make a playlist in Spanish ( look up translations to connect with the music more ) These are the things have helped me stay motivated for the last 7 years of learning and I hope they help some of you as well Comment from : @NathanSkates

Love the new series and love when you get excited about small things 🤗 Comment from : @The1sista

i learned english when i was 6 and i have been speaking it for a long time and when i became bilingual, i also became impatient while learning languages i often think: "wow, i learned english when i was six, and i can't learn this one now?" i often say that while i'm practically having a coversation in that language this isn't a question, i just find it funny😄 Comment from : @joostklein12

I love your energy on these videos bro! Keep up the great content! Saludos desde San Francisco Comment from : @DeTAYL

Hi, RobbrYour advice is great, although I'm personally not losing motivation to learn a specific language but losing motivation to learn new languages in general I also feel that I'm unable to learn languages that are unrelated to the ones I already speak, unless I actually have somebody to help me and keep me accountable The reasons are more deep-rooted than just sheer difficulty, I feel First of all, I've become quite lazy, and find daily, dedicated study tedious and uninspiring I hate almost every resource available - especially if I have to read dialogues, do exercises, study vocabulary lists, etc The only way I see myself learning a language succesfully is with YouTube videos on grammar (especially if they are in the target language), and other videos with stories, gameplays, or vlogs and such (though they aren't always ideal for a beginner) Now I wanna concentrate on reading literature, learning about different places, learning history THROUGH my languages I still would like to speak fluent Mandarin or be able to read Cicero in the original Latin, but I don't know if I have the patience and the discipline for it (I had to think for 20 minutes what the word was here I had to ask my mother "Mom, what is the word describing that thing that soldiers learn to be in the army?" She answered: "Disciplined?" and I yelled "YES!" - such brainfarts happen all the time Ugh)brbrSo, anyway, what do you think about such long-term, more severe cases of not wanting to learn languages anymore? It doesn't have to be a question for a video, but it can be if you find it interesting enoughbrbrOh, I've been thinking of embracing my skill of learning closely-related languages and thought of trying to learn the remaining few Germanic languages that I don't speak yet (I speak 5) Maybe I'd succeed at that, but now any language that's not Germanic is too difficult - even Slavic languages, which, as a Pole, I should be able to pick up relatively quickly Comment from : @Lestry2
