Motivation in language learning



What motivates me to learn languages? Interesting content also helps me. Over the years I've maintained some of the Spanish I learned in high school because I listen to music, watch movies, and watch other YouTube videos. I don't read a lot of Spanish books, though I occasionally find one for my Kindle. I did notice that about myself, so when I started to learn Russian the first thing I did was find some YouTube channels I'd enjoy watching. I also think to stay motivated to learn a language, that we need to make it part of our lives by finding content that interests us.

I talked my mother into letting me take ballet lessons for a little while. But I wasn’t graceful and my ballet teacher didn’t have very liberal thoughts on teaching children. If you sucked, she let you know. But, she couldn’t ever accuse me of not enjoying dancing. All my favorite songs are either on soundtracks, or are great story like “Desperado” by the Eagles. Listing thirteen favorites might be the subject of another Thursday Thirteen. Some of the movie songs I’ve listened to while typing today: Da Funk by Daft Punk on The Saint soundtrack and #1 Crush by Mundy on the Romeo & Juliet soundtrack. Writing. I can get lost in writing. I love creating stories and characters. Apparently e
