The fear of making mistakes is one of the biggest roadblocks toe language, learning out of all the discomforts that come with learning a foreign language.

Nothing looms quite is daunting in the mind of a beginner.

It's almost a Ziff.

We're hardwired to want perfection when we speak.

However, the reality is that mistakes are unavoidable.

In fact, mistakes are an integral part of the learning process.

Think of small Children who were just starting to learn language.

They mispronounced words.

They use words incorrectly, and their grammar isn't very good.

Sometimes they even make up their own words.

Research shows that this is all a natural part of the process.

If making mistakes made up such a huge part of learning our native language, why do you expect it to be any different when learning a foreign one?

In this video, we'll talk about six ways.

You can benefit from your mistakes while learning language number one.

Be humble.

There's no room for pride when you're learning a new language.

If you're a beginner, native speakers will likely be very accommodating with your mistakes and slower reaction times during conversations.

There's no reason to be embarrassed.

Remember that it's a sign of respect.

Toe learn another person's language.

No one expects you to speak flawlessly right from the start.

No one's going to hold your mistakes against you, so make sure you don't either.

Number two don't play the comparison game, whether it's a native speaker or another person learning the language.

Don't make the mistake of comparing your progress to someone else's.

No doubt at the beginning there will be times when it feels like everyone is speaking perfectly and you're left in the dust.

But try not to get discouraged.

It's your race to run, not theirs.

Everyone has their own story, their own reason and their own method for learning.

Comparing your progress to someone else's progress is like comparing apples and oranges.

It's easy to stress out when someone speaks perfectly while you're struggling to make the most basic sentences.

But don't forget that while you can easily see someone else's success, you're much less likely to see the hard work that got them there.

Every speaker you meet had to learn the language at some point, whether it was as a child or as an adult.

They, too, had to wade through their mistakes before they could speak fluently.

Number three.

Get feedback on your mistakes.

Any time you write or speak your target language, try to get feedback from someone who speaks that language.

You can make mistakes day and night, but if they're never corrected, they do you no good.

If you can't learn from a mistake, or if you don't know that it's a mistake, it won't help you.

Many in the language learning community hold that feedback is an integral part of the language acquisition process.

Encourage friends and language partners to correct your speaking any time all the time.

Worst case scenario.

You'll make a mistake 100 times and get corrected 100 times.

It might seem frustrating, but it's all worth it on the 101st time when you finally remember your mistake and start speaking correctly, some mistakes will be easy to fix, and you'll adjust your speaking right away.

Others might take a while.

Speaking a foreign language is a little bit like juggling.

There are a lot of moving pieces.

You have to keep in place whether it's pronunciation, grammar or vocabulary.

Getting feedback on your effort will help refine your language skills until you feel comfortable in the language.

Number four.

Listen to your brain after all the practice and feedback.

Eventually, you'll start to notice that certain words come to mind without having to think about them.

Instead of having to scan your brain for the latest new vocabulary word, you begin to instinctively come up with the word for a given sentence.

Don't hesitate to blurt this word out.

Sometimes it will be completely wrong.

Other times it will be dead on when words start coming to mind.

Instinctively, that means your brain is starting to get more and more used to using a new language.

Thean Correct words air Sort of like growing pains.

You'll have them for a little while, but over time you'll encounter them less and less until all of your instinctual words are correct.

So don't let the fear of making a mistake short circuit your brain's natural learning process.

Go with whatever word your brain gives you.

Number five.

Never take the easy way out.

If there are two ways to say what you want to say in your target language.

When you know and they're comfortable with and the other you're not sure of, use the one you're least comfortable with.

Purposely choose subjects and sentence constructions that are difficult for you.

Don't get complacent and fall into the trap of using the same phrase over and over again or having the same type of conversation with a language partner.

You always want to push your language.

Skill boundaries to stretch them even further.

Number six enjoy the language for its own sake.

Small Children not only make a ton of mistakes when they learn to speak, they also have a ton of fun.

To them, life and language are both giant, mysterious adventures.

They aren't worried about making progress, impressing people or speaking perfectly taken note from their playbook.

Enjoy the languages you learn it.

Let your focus be on the beauty and magic of the language.

Savor the times you get to use it.

If you loosen up and enjoy the ride, you'll learn much faster.

Mistakes are powerful, an indispensable part of learning a language.
