Diana is “a very curious woman from Venezuela and a big fan of languages!”
We met on LinkedIn – it’s the place to be these days – and I want to share with you what happened when we got together a couple of weeks ago. We talked about:
- Diana’s story and language journey
- Why it’s important to have fun when you are learning languages and to find activities that are enjoyable for you
- Why it’s important to practise every day and not just when you go to classes
- How to avoid mixin up languages when you are learning several languages at the same time
- How using different languages helps you to highlight different parts of your personality
- How her knowledge of languages and her experience working with different cultures help Diana now with her work in communications
- How having something enjoyable to work towards can be both a motivator and a reward.
