I will soon be starting a WFH job. I will have quite a bit of downtime on 3 out of the 5 days. I want to use this to my advantage to improve my languages.
I am stuck at the intermediate plateau for a couple of my languages (Spanish) (Italian) and am hoping for some tips and maybe some ideas on a plan to continue improving all of my languages.
Italian - 9 years of "study," only 2 of which involved actual Italian courses at my university (after I was already at a low intermediate level from self study)
Spanish - 7 years of study (school + university) and then 4 years of casual practice since then
French - 3 years of study in school, not much formal practice since then (almost 6 years)
New Language - I'm considering adding another language to spice things up. Either Dutch or Swedish
I watch youtube videos in Spanish and Italian and read some things on social media in both langauges, but otherwise I don't do much right now to use or maintain the languages. I don't have peopel around me that I regularly speak to, so I hope to eventually get a langauge partner.
Any tips are appreciated! I have a weird mix of being self taught on a lot of things in my 3 main languages, in addition to some actual classes, so I have random knowledge on a bunch of vocab and grammar, but not necessarily everything that I should have up to a certain level.
