Foreign Language Learning Tip #2

When studying for school work, the surest sign that you know something is when you can teach it. When you can – from memory, without notes, without books, and without the help of others – produce knowledge of your subject, then you are on your way to mastering it. If you cannot produce it, then you do not own it. You can only give away what you already have.

So...

...this week teach what you're studying to your brother, your sister, your dog, your parents, your aunts and uncles, your doll collection, your other self (in the mirror), your webcam, your friends, your cat, your gerbil, or any audience that is willing to listen to you.
