hmmm, I know I announced that I would read one book a week a while back, but I've been struggling to keep up with that goal since I switched to reading books in German.
I just finished Harry Potter and the philosopher's stone and it took me a month to read 🥲
By the end of the book, it did get quite a bit easier, so I know the next book shouldn't take as long. But it's still going to be a struggle. I read somewhere that to become proficient you need to read 3 million words or roughly 30 books. So I need to read 29 more books.
I can't wait to get to a level where I can read books more aligned with my interest. I'd be killing two birds with one stone! Reading books I like, while improving my German. what a **wild** concept 🤩
honestly, I can't believe I didn't try this method before to learn German. All the grammatical rules and vocabulary rarely stuck when I learned in a classroom. but reading... I love to read! this is definitely the most effective learning style for meee. I'm going to be level C2 by the end of 2023. Mark my words!
