Hello everyone! I’m trying to make sure my language learning habits are the best they can be. I was using Duolingo and Busuu, but that was taking a lot of time away from immersion/fun and what I learned in one I often learned in the other. So now I just use Busuu for grammar learning.

Any new German words I come across I then enter into Anki for memorization, which I practice once a day.

After these two activities, I try to fill my day as much as possible with German media; this includes German podcasts, music, games translated into German, and YouTube videos.

I want to know… Is this an effective method? I’m always a bit of a perfectionist, so I’m looking for either validation or constructive criticism. Alternatively, you could just share your own language learning methods!

    Hmm. I wonder where I can go for that. I’m in a German-learning discord channel but it’s HUGE and that’s intimidating to me. I’ll give it another shot though!
