I hope you're enjoying this mini-series of articles! 3. Visit blogs which are in the foreign language you're learning and leave comments Try to find blogs which are either just starting out (you could befriend the owner of the blog) or popular already (many potential language exchange partners are visiting the blog!). Look for blog directories that are in the language you're learning. You could also ask your social networks friends for blog recommendations! Leave a few friendly comments and give out an email address. This email address will likely get spam but that's fine, the important thing is that you find a foreign friend! 4. Exploit the power of YouTube in your target language Look for nice videos that are in the foreign language you're learning and start interacting with people that way. Ask them for more video recommendations, post video responses... This is one of the best methods to make foreign friends if you aren't shy! Don't hesitate to ask your new language friends for corrections. In order to become fluent, you will need help from native speakers at some point.

Start Studying Your New Language with Google Today

Today is your day. Why? Because today is the day you'll start studying your new language.
No matter how late it is, you can do something productive *right* now.
I am sure you use search engines on a daily basis. Some search engines are better than others when you want to learn a foreign language.

I recommend search engines like Google because you can choose the language you want your search results to be in. Go to Google.com, select Settings and choose your target language.
Doing this will take you about two minutes, and it will enable you to search the web in another language!

Always use Google Translate if you don't understand a website. You'll learn tons of new words if you ditch English when you do research on something that you find interesting!

Don't forget to do some research in whichever language you're learning every day. You'll make progress really fast.
