Full-Immersion Language Programs seem to be the rage when it comes to learning a language. This usually means going abroad to a language school in Spain, Italy, France, Germany, China or Japan. Once in the country, you will be fully immersed in your new language. While there, you will be able to travel around the country in your time-off periods to learn more about the culture and to have the chance to practice your new language skills.

If you have the time and money, this is a wonderful way to learn a language. But most of us are not able to do this. So let me go over some simple ways to have your very own in-home immersion program.

1. Get yourself a good interactive, audio language course of your choice. Pimsleur would be an excellent choice. Listen and respond to the native speakers out loud. Do this everyday for a period of 30 minutes.

2. Go to the library and check out a few music CDs that have music and lyrics in the language you are learning. Listen to these CDs while you are doing things around the house or driving in your car. Try and understand the words and the meaning as you listen.

3. At the newsstand, buy a newspaper or magazine that is written in your chosen language. One paper or magazine will do you for a while. Go through the paper or magazine and read the words and try and figure out what is being discussed.

4. Buy or check-out from the library a large World Atlas. Find the country in which you are learning the language and look at the mountain ranges, rivers, cities and the overall layout of the country and in your mind plan a trip there to see it in person.

5. Buy yourself a nice set of flash cards and learn several new words each day to expand your vocabulary.

6. At the library check out some foreign films in the language you are studying and watch them at home. If you are learning Spanish you can turn on a TV program and listen and try to understand what is being said.

7. Find someone in your area that speaks this language and try and talk with them.

You will find that if you do these things on a regular basis, each day, your rate of understanding will accelerate and you will learn much faster. The more you can interact with others in trying to speak your new language the better and faster you will go. This is the advantage of a full immersion program and this will be your big advantage as you implement your own in-home immersion program.
