زویی عزیزم من فارسی زبان هستم ولی این لینک زبان فارسی ندارد ومن میخواهم آلمانی را شروع کنم چیکارکنم؟وسواله دیگر این برنامه چقدرهزینه دارد؟
Here is how I do it. Learning vocab is always difficult, doesn't matter what language it is. For me, this method is much more effective than learning words alone. Here is how I do it: 1 - Read the entire paragraph. I don't search for meaning of words, I just guess if from context. 2 - Read the whole thing again, but this time I search for each word, what does it mean. Why this sentence is constructed like this. 3 - Read again for third time, stopping to look at translation of word if needed. 4 - Read at fourth time, usually this is where entire paragraph is embedded in my head. So this is the last step. 5 - I make sure to reread old material every day as much as possible. This way it goes to my long term memory.
Thanks, very look like useful. I will try
it's not for everyone because sounds like a boring technique, the process should be effective and at the same time entertaining...
@@mariashevyrova3730 Reading sentences is less boring than memorising lone words. Go ahead try it out. And this might not work for everyone, but learning from sentences is much much easier for me than learning lonely words. I also remember them easily when I need to use them. Infact, right now I just stopped learning lone words. I always read and read again. Its easier and faster also.
Sounds like great practice!
this is how i learned farsi in just over a year. if you think about the way you read books as a kid, usually you read your most favorite bedtime stories over and over. Your brain was actually learning how to read this way, and learning words in context. this is a very natural way to learn vocabulary.
Learning vocabulary has always been a difficult task. Thank you for your tips, Zoe!!
You're so welcome!
I just want to share my experience in learning English as a second language. My mother tongue is Chinese. I was around 10 when I hardly knew English any more than the alphabet and some simple words. I was fortunate to have an aunt, who was a teacher, to get me a part-time tutor who could spend one hour with me each week. Obviously with so little time made available she could not teach me much in the traditional way. What she did has made me forever grateful. She listed a series of books of abridged English stories and novels, and made me read them, with some strict rules: first, finish one book a week regardless of its length; second, do not translate or make any annotations; third, do not use a dictionary; fourth, ignore details; and fifth, report back to her by the next week the main theme or essence of the story, in English. She told me to scan through each book from cover to cover once quickly, return a second time to the beinning and read through the book again slowly, and then if I wanted to, go back a third time to where I wanted to understand more. I struggled through the first dozen of books and gradually I was able to figure out the meaning of new words, expressions, styles and nuances. She remained my tutor for about six months. After that I went through the whole school library in my first year of high school.
I'm Chinese too and have read roughly 10 English story books. It's a joyful and fruitful time if goes on a "heart flow" which means reading without perceiving the time. It has helped me a lot. All it started when I watched a video about "Comprehensible Input" on Bilibili. But verb conjugation still confuses me a lot 😂
I'm an Argentinian 18 year old girl that's self taught in English and I'm learning mandarin now. Ever since I've found your channel, you've made me feel really inspired and unstoppable! Thank you so much Zoe, you're such a smart and beautiful woman, you got me in love for real! Hahahah 💖
You're cute!I am a 18 guy from China and I am also learn English now follow zoe.
@mimi-ui5ps I'm glad man!! Good luck 💖 很高兴认识你！
I am an Arab, and I am here to learn how to memorize words and vocabulary. I have already learned English (on my own), but not to the level that I aspire to. In fact, I would like to learn many languages, simply because I love languages very much. I thank God for I found your channel, and it seems useful. Especially since you speak 7 languages, this is really insane.. Mashallah🌼 And I want to be like you✨🌼
شكراً على نصائحك حتى اكون صريحة هذا العام هو اخر عام لي في المدرسة لم يتبقى سوى شهر واحد و اقدم الاختبارات النهائية و انا اتعلم في مدرستي لغتين الانجليزية و الفرنسية لكن لدي بعض المشاكل لا استطيع التحدث باللغة رغم إنني افهم كل ما يُقال . و اعتقد بعد مشاهدة الفيديوات التي قدمتي بها نصائح اصبحت استطيع صنع مسار صحيح لذا بعد اختباراتي سوف اقوم بتحسين لغتي الانجليزية و الفرنسية حتى اتحدث بطلاقة قبل دخولي الى الجامعة و إن شاء الله اتعلم لغة جديدة ايضا لأنني من محبين تعلم اللغات الجديدة و سوف أُدَون جميع نصائحك
I have been watching your videos and that has been so useful for my language learning. So I am grateful for your help.
Hi Zoe.languages since I started to following your channel I'm more inspired about learning languages and be a polyglot thank you! And your tips are amazing!
Zoe hem cok bilgilendirici hem kısayolları öğrettiğin keyifli bir video olmuş cok teşekkürler ❤️
I have been struggling with to learn new vocabulary. thank you so much for your advices
I loved these tips!! Thank you very much!!
The fact that you said you learned all the languages after the 20 it made me happy because sometimes i feel like I'll never learn but now i'm sure that I won't give up. Thank you so much. From Turkiye ❤💕
Merci professeur Zoe❤ merci toutes les camarades en ligne 🌟
You are so inspiring. I'm glad to have found your channel. I'm from Germany.
Thank you for all precious information, Zoe! I would love to hear a video on how diet, exercise and lifestyle habits are linked to learning and long term memory. Thank you!
Thank you Zoe, great!
Zoe, thank you so much for this video! It would be very helpful if you decide to make a video on how eating and exercising habits contribute to having better memory! 😊
Thank you so much, Zoe. I struggle with vocabulary to learn. Nowadays, I don't learn vocabulary. It was a useful tip for me. I will do it. I need a workout video.
I am so happy to watch this video, Zoe. You are the best ❤❤
شكرًا على الفيديو 🤍
Thanks a lot 🙏🏻 I am learning German and I found this really helpful ❤️
Thank you for sharing your knowledge to us
Hello, Zoe! Thank you for the video. It would be extremely interesting to hear from you about the connection between physical activity and memory!
Thanks for these great tips Zoe. I enjoy listening to you. When I started learning Manderin I also used to make up some strange associations to remember words but it worked, lol. Glad I'm not the only one!
Zoe, I take off my hat to you! You are amazing. I also learned a couple of languages, but couldn't get them over A-2 level.
Hi Zoe, I looovvvveeee your channel! So inspiring! I am currently learning my 6th language: Levantine Arabic. It soooooo hard, your channel really helps me❤❤ If you ever want to learn Dutch (my mother tongue) I will happily be your conversation partner!
You explained it very clearly and yet I’m native french. I love your accent🥰 Thank u so much for your tips.
ماشاء الله تعرفين ٧ لغات !انتِ رائعه واسلوبك اجمل واروع ♥️♥️ بحاول اطبق خطواتك شكرا
After I finish my PhD this semester in Dong Nan Dao Xue I decide to start a one year Chinese language learning in here at the same university. I hope I can learn Chinese!
Hi Zoe, I love all your videos, especially the travel ones. Can you do more of those in your channel?
Thanks Zoe for the tips. I think most important is being eager to learn new words. Greetings from Turkey 🇹🇷
LOVEEEEE all ur videos!!!!!!! Always have the notification bell on and i always like before the video even starts because i know its gonna be gooooood
Good habit 😜!
Great video, Zoé! I’ll try out these techniques soon ☺️
💪💪💪
Zoe, I'm really love all your videos. I'm 20 and I'm learning English and I started with the Korean this month too. You are my favorite channel; your videos always are so amazing. You make all more easier in the language process. At the same time it's really interesting because You already learnt different languages with different systems. You help me a lot. Thank you for your amazing videos
How do you learning both languages with the same time?
@@iamaman5393 I’m learning six languages at one time. You just start with one and then you begin another after you are comfortable enough learning one. I recommend the apps Duolingo, Drops, Memrise, and LingoDeer.
Keep up the good work, it seems you're doing a great job of learning English
easier is enough you dont need to use more there
thank u very much for your advices. associative memorization is very well suited in learning Chinese
I'm learning Arabic as well and I loved your tips
Very nice sharing God bless you 😊
Hi Zoe! Thanks for your tips, I am currently learning korean as my fifth language. I know swedish, english, spanish and german but as you say, when having less links to connect it makes it more challenging. I would love to learn more about how habits and lifestyle affects your learning skills, I am also interested in these topics myself. Would be interesting to learn more from you!
Merci pour votre partage génial 👍🌻🙏
Zoe, you spoke my mind (0:30 to 0:50). I'm trying really hard to learn Arabic. Thank you for your excellent videos. They are exceptionally beneficial.
Great explanation. Just made a video on this very topic that I think complements this presentation very well. Want to forget less and remember more? Watch and listen to as much English as you can, and make speaking or writing in English a weekly (or in best of cases a daily) habit. That's the "natural" way. If you want a "trick" figure out how to counteract the "forgetting curve" (really interesting concept I'd encourage learners to look into if they're curious). Good stuff Zoe!
Useful tips thank you so much
Great tips, thanks! I'd LOVE a video about exercise and food that help the brain to learn new languages
I would love a video on the connection between diet, exercise, and language learning!
thank you, Zoe your are the only one youtuber that i’m really excited to watch video you launch. 😊 my fav method is association and sum up what i learned from a videos,podcasts,music,games… but even you make up associations and stories in your head/ mental palace , you must go over and use them as much as you can. the only problem i have is, when i watch a video for exemple i pick a lot of unknow sentences and my list is so long , that i can’t go over and use all of them, how do you go through that, i know it’s just simply to pick up fewer words but i have the perfectionnist syndrome ( idk if i can use syndrme here sorry) congrat for growing up your followers 🎉have a great week 😊
No need to write down everything. You should select words that seem more "useful" to you. you can even cut it down to just 10-20 new words per video to sum up the main idea. The reduction is important in the long term💪
Thank you for your video it’s Very helpful ❤
These tips are sooooo helpful 🎉 The most difficult part is to actually input these ways of learning to my language study, but I will try my best!!!
You got this!
Hey, Zoe! I would love a video about the importance of working out and diet in the learning process. Im in love with this kind of content.
Will do!!
Thank you suggesting using Excel for language learning. Helping me very much and learn faster.
Thanks for the cool tips 😊❤

شكرأ زوى على المعلومات المفيدة.
Hi! Just found your channel and I totally agree with these suggestions. The difficulty that my foreign students of Italian say they have is finding time: I tell them to start with just 5 minutes a day, but it is true that sometimes, after a long day of work, it is difficult also to concentrate. The secrets are: passion and constancy!
I want to learn italiano
Honestly, I've been neglecting studying words in Spanish & I wanted to know am effective way. I'll try the story method. It's sounds like a great way to study the past tense.
Extremely thankyou madam 🌹🌹 You always inspire me.
When I saw ur video immediately I subscribed it.. Ur just amazing.. I am preparing for delf B1.... Pls make a video about delf B1 and how will the exams conducted pls make a clear video... Merci beaucoup...
做为中文的学生我得承认背单词是习汉语的最大的挑战之一，有时候了解某种汉字的笔顺或者组成部分确实是一件令人沮丧的事儿而甚至能挫伤学生的积极性，不管他有多大的动力。所以我赞同你的想法👍
Great video. I will try to implement these rules. And also, I would love to see a video related to health and exercise ❣️🏃
thank you❤
Merci Zoe, c'est génial! Je vais appliquer ces astuces pour bien apprendre la différence entre 'emmener', 'amener', 'apporter', 'emporter, 'rapporter' etc...😁
Même en tant que française je ne vois pas tellement la différence mdrr
@@selmaa9796 Ah bon?😆
Zoe, please do a video on how exercises and diet are connected with focus and memory.
انا كنت انتظر فيديو جديد. برافو زوي. صديقتك سوزان من المانيا
اهلا وسهلا يا سوزان 😊
Thank you so much. Merci beaucoup Chokrane bezaf Je mabonne.... Hichame boushaba... Good day
Hi, Zoe. I recently came across your channel and have been loving all the great information you've been sharing. I'm learning two languages at the moment and wish to learn each of them to mastery. Please do a video on how physical excercise helps the brain improve cognitive ability and learning. I, for one, love working out and have found following a regular workout routine to improve my health, mood, and mental well-being in a number of ways. Keep up the great work!
Will do
Thy channel has proved essential to enhance my learning speed, thank thee and congrats 1000! I am not a "classical" polyglot, actually I write rhyming poetries in several languages (now I am at 9), usually learning 2 languages each year. Now I am self-teaching Latin and Japanese, looking for Middle English and Tolkien's Sindarin in the future. But thou have helped me in several fields: - Improving vocabulary swiftly: rhymes are the most natural and immediate things, but I need vocabulary to start. - Grammar: it has always been my weak spot. But I have followed thy steps to improve day after day. Patience is the best counsel! Therefore, congrats for all what hast thou done 😊
Thank you! I am so glad 😊
What languages are you learning? I may be able to recommend some resources to help with grammar.
@@dutchessdreamer4543 You're really kind, thank thee! Now I'm learning Japanese and Latin; I'm trying to encompass them simultaneously (it might be a sick idea though, idk 😅). Vocabulary is ok, rhymes already acquired, grammar quite a pain (I'm slow in that field). I leave Middle English for future. Any idea is welcome, thank you. Anyway, good luck for your study and all! (I suppose you are also self-teaching)
Me, watching the video. Zoe: I learnt all my languages after 20. Me: Wait what? Aren't you 18??? 🤣 I mean, I know you are not, but you look so young and beautiful. Also, the tips are great. I always struggle with remembering vocab/pronunciation. I'm learning Japanese now, and I very often know the meaning of a character, but I have no idea how to pronounce it, or I hear a word, and I know I've learnt it, but I don't remember the meaning. I'll try your tips, hopefully it will stick better. I'd love to watch a video about how diet and exercise helps to improve memory. i'd also love to watch videos in a different language - with English subtitles. I just love listening to you ☺
Hahaha you are so cute thank you! You can try to associate the sound with the image or the story while learning the word, it is very useful!
Thanks for your wonderful videos. Currently I learn German and it's going on well, but unfortunately I have noticed that it affects my English speaking skills. By the way, my native language is Farsi. I mix the the words and sentences sometimes when I switch speaking between English and German or even if this doesn't happen at all, I feel the fear of mixing in my mind. Can you please make a video about your experience in this regard. Thanks in advance
I love the topic of memory and learning! Thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience, Zoe. I'd love to see videos on exercise and diet, and their influence on our performance, memory, and learning. 😊 I know that Ali Abdaal made some great content on learning, particularly spaced repetition and recall methods if anyone's interested. Early episodes of Huberman Lab Podcast are also a wonderful source of high-quality information and practical tools within that topic. 🧠
Great suggestion!
This method of creating crazy associations for the vocab is the best. When trying to learn the Russian word for valley, which is "dolina", I created a visual association with a certain infamous character named Dollynho ("little Dolly") dancing inside a valley. BTW, Zoe, was there ever a time you coudn't remember an Arabic word, but you attempt to start writing it and it turns out the shape of the word just pops out of your hands? As if your mind and muscles remember the word shape subconciously.
Zoe I'm from India so I know Hindi, English & Marathi Arabic , French and German all launguages are kinda familiar to me Cause Arabic lil bit similar to Hindi I tried Mandarin But it's hard to learn and pronounce Thank God I'm just 15 years old now I've more time to skill up myself

What the h…?! You& I just lost a very useful list of suggestions for you!! I may be able to re write it.
such beautiful teacher, love u
Hello Zoe your channel is entirely amazing, I love it so much it makes me feel motivated to put a lot of effort into learning languages, well I'm 16 years old, my mother tongue is Arabic and learned English for 3 years and now I'm learning Spanish and French, I hope to master them and speak them professionally, I'm also interested in learning more such as Japanese, Chinese, Korean, German, Italian, Russian, Turkish ect, but I should focus on French and Spanish first, my goal should be realistic and measureble, 😊, although I can't travel or even take private classes online with teachers, but I will be patient and hard working, good luck for everyone 😇 Merci beaucoup pour ton videos Zoe
Keep up the good work, it seems you're doing a great job of learning English
Thanks, I appreciate it
Alhamdulillah semoga kita semua selalu menjaga sholat nya aamiin
Beautiful video is the best video I have ever seen I liked very much is the most important
Hi, it might seems weird haha but I love your videos, you help me a lot as a language learner and I didn't know how to give back to you and for whatever reason, the ad on this video was 45min long, and I watch it all: I hope it will somehow come back to you. If not, I hope that this comments will ^-^. Anyways, thanks a lot for all your videos!
رائع يا زوي ❤❤
Yes, I would like to see your video about diet and memory pleasse :)
Thank you for your tips♥ Can you make a video about Turkish learning sources?
Zoe, please would you kindly make a video on how exercise and diet can help memory? Thank you.
مرحبا زوي أتمنى أن تكوني بخير. اكتشفتك صدفة وقد وثار إعجابي طموحك وشغفك لتعلم اللغات أتابع عندما تسنح لي الفرصة بعضا من فيديوهاتك التي استفدت منها حقا. إذ أنني اتعلم الألمانية لوحدي منذ حوالي أربعة شهور . أشكرك وأشجعك كثيرا. تابعي قدما ....بالتوفيق.
فيديو جميل عزز عندي الطريقة اللي أتعلم بها الإنجليزية .. شكراً Zoe❤
Your Arabic isn't very good!
@@j2shoes288 This is an Arabic accent and it is called "white language" that I used here in the comment
شكرا جزيلا
Dear Zoe, could you create a new video/provide explanation on how do you do your "earthquake" list and manage to learn the vocabulary. More specifically, your tools, and process of repetition of the vocabulary, how it works for you, in general. I know u have a video about learning vocab, but you don't do a deep dive into your specific methodology (showing us, a specific topic, for instance earthquake, when would u review it, how are you confident that you have fixed those words, etc.). I believe that could be beneficial for us, thanks a lot :)
If there's an emotional trigger you always remember the vocab very clearly. I used to write new vocabulary I heard in audio books with their sentence. I always have some kind of flashback into the book story when I hear these words
I have one tip, You may talk to your teddy 🧸/ toys before sleeping about what you did today in language you want to learn.
Thank you very beaucoup und chokrane
انت رائعة صوفى استمرى في العمل الجيد
شكرا كتير 😊
Excellent video and extremely helpful. truly inspiring, charasmatic, and the video production is Top-Notch! 👌Cliff Notes as I watched: Absorb-d. Remember, the "ed" ending is often times elided as "d." Ex: Morph-(d);Hope-(d); Scope-(d); Scoop-(d). Also, "difficult" is more pronounced as"diffic-ALT" and "Magical" is more like "Ma-ji-KUL." I found it interesting that these 2 words seem to have inverted pronunciations for the "A" and "U." Level is also more like "LEV-ul." Your pronunciation for French is actually even better than your excellent ESL. "I don't forget these stories until now," is more naturally stated in the positive as: "I still remember these stories even now." If it is stated as a negative, it would better stated as: "I haven't forgotten these stories even until now."
Great Video, watching from Brazil 😊🇧🇷✅
أحسنت صنعا
I definitely would be interested in learning about how diet affects memory
Thank you so much for the inspiration, since I'm gonna know a lotta languages as well as you do. I'm fourteen though With appreciation, Ukraine.
please make a video about how diet and exercise affect the memory 🙏🏻😍😍
Thanks for sharing valuable points. It would be better if turn the background sound down.
Zoe definitely is very talented in languages. Her England accent seems to be PR accent? But I never heard a British pronounce the last syllable in “difficult “ in her way.
Amazing
Please make the video about how diet and exercise affects learning!
i love your english
No formula in short cut learning use it every day until you absorb it and use it as you wish by natural. My key: 1 Need 2. Goal 3. Read, write, speak and listen . After that you revise every day. Time will tell you if you can catch the word in time and know it meaning and can read and write correctly. That's enough please keep in mind that we never better than native speaker.
