VIDEO: Struggling to read books in a foreign language? Try bilingual books!
“I would love to read books in the language I’m learning but I’m not advanced enough. I have to wait until my vocabulary gets better.”
Sound familiar?
Maybe you’ve had an experience of opening a book in French or Spanish only to give up after 2 pages because there were so many words you didn’t understand. You’re not alone!
But here’s the good news – you don’t have to wait any longer to start reading foreign books…
… simply reach for a bilingual book. This will not only help you to improve your vocabulary and understanding, but it’s also way more fun than trying to get through a boring textbook.
In this video, I will show you how to work with a bilingual book and how to make your own bilingual book if you can’t find one in the language you need.
