This Summer If You Have The Time Off Maybe Try Picking Up A Completely New Language! The Challenge Lasts

This summer if you have the time off maybe try picking up a completely new language! The challenge lasts for however long your summer break lasts and you;

1) pick a completely new language you’ve never studied before

2) make a realistic goal for what you want to achieve out of this time (e.g. reading a beginning book in your target language, maybe having a short conversation with a native/advanced speaker, finishing a Duolingo tree etc)

3) commit to practicing it for a allotted time everyday (it could be 20 minutes to 2hrs everyday what matters is that you stick w/ it!)

4) immerse yourself in that language; listen to music and podcasts, watch movies and tv in your target language, change your tech to the target language-really surround yourself w/ the language

If you decide to take on this challenge make an intro post describing;

 who you are

 your target language

why you are choosing that language

what your goal is

how long you have for break/summer

tag it with #summer language challenge

Then every week

post abt something related to your target language (e.g. good movie you watched, cool words, accomplishments you made, vocab you learned etc)

post something in your target language (it can be anything)

progress on your goal(s)

tag it with #summer language challenge

At the end of your break make a post abt how you did. Hopefully you’ll have exceeded your expectations and gotten a solid foundation in your target language while having a series of posts that document your journey!

Studyblr Introduction

I’m gonna be honest: I’ve been silently watching the studyblr community the entire Spring semester, but I was afraid to get involved. However, now that college is out and I’m dying to absorb new information, I figured I’d join in on the fun.

I am going into my senior year of college now, and I am majoring in psychology with a minor in coaching. I plan on pursuing my masters/doctorate in Sports Psychology and working in the field of research. Besides my studies, I run track and field, sit as the president of Active Minds for my college, work as the vice-president for Psi Chi (the psychology honor society), and am about to begin as a research assistant for one of my psych professors. 

I will never know how I’ve managed to keep my GPA up this far. 

I plan on using this studyblr for study motivation for my courses, as well as learning Korean. My sister and closest friend are both from South Korea, and I’ve already started with an introductory Korean book last semester.

I hope to get involved with the community more soon!
