Any Language Learners Out There? (beehaw.org)

Hello everyone! I'm learning German and 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 app I often learned in the other, so it felt redundant. 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 or twice 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 feedback or constructive criticism. Alternatively, you could just share your own language learning methods!

I'd also love to know if there are any great instances for people learning languages! I tried looking, but none of them seemed active :(

I’d also love to join a language learning community! I’m also currently studying Korean (for around 3 months now) but I haven’t made significant progress regarding vocabulary and grammar :c

May I know which resources helped you with getting to TOPIK 2 level? I’ve only been consuming basic TTMIK content and a bunch of Kdramas

I went to classes with a teacher when I had the time, now I'm with TTMIK too. I also do Anki daily and watch some K-content when I have time.

I recommend you to check this Youtube channel, is great: https://www.youtube.com/@ComprehensibleInputKorean
