Watch Videos
To practice the language in a more relaxed way, you can watch videos in your target language. Some tips for this to be effective:
- Start with short videos or take breaks.
- Do not panic if you do not understand 100% of the words !
- If you are not confident yet, watch something you have already seen before in your mother tongue. It will help with your comprehension !
