    an Ipad is not neccessary for this, its certainly blinged out, and will never have any true problems with textbooks, websites and apps aside of lack of availability. Just know you can get a similar experience on used, or low end samsung tablets for a way cheaper price, I got my s6 tab lite with a stylus (and an headphone jack) for about 200 bucks new, relatively low end but for textbook and media streaming purposes its amazing and saved me hundreds of dollars compared an apple product. (not criticism, different people have different budgets)

    When I practice writing I write a made up stories! I got this idea from my middle school Chinese text book that have something stupid like : "The monkey is blue, He is from china. One morning, he eat candy and die." So I do exactly that. We can apply harder grammar into it too. I contrast it with writing about my life sometimes. Super fun to do

    Nothing will make you decide language learning advice is context dependent than learning a language that is not popular to learn and having different priorities than most learners. I enjoy language learning content just for the feeling of being part of some community. I don't expect to get anything useful out of it. I had that expectation when I first started trying to learn a language and I wasted half a year as a result, just from trying to make that advice fit. I'm of the opinion that at this point everything that can be said about how to learn a language has been said and any further discussion is coming from people procrastinating their own studying or trying to make a buck. So, while I still enjoy that kind of content, I don't take it seriously.

    I think I am also on the plateau in my Thai. I feel I have done everything about it and nothing interest me anymore. I think I am not in depression because I am still feel happy when I take French, painting class. So I back to my basic class in Thai which start with alphats. I feel I become happier. First of all, the classmates are new. Secondly, there can be more game activity in basic class, not just article reading, news listening. Even different topic, these topics are heavy. Even in my mother language, I am not interested in these more difficult topics either. I realized that I might be in the platau period too. It happened unplanned, I just tried to get rid of this unhappy feeling. I do not feel waste of time to back to the basic. Contrary I feel plateau is a hard time. And I plan not to go back to advanced class anymore, in stead of staying in basic. And I do not find that my degree declines, opposite, I take back some basic words that I forget because I take too much time on infrequent words. I hope what I think of work or anyone tried the some way who can give some advice.

    Immersive Translate is a great way you can supplement your language learning. I personally use it to translate webpages and documents, and even to watch my shows and movies on Netflix every day, and that’s how I’ve been immersing myself in my target language. I like it how you can easily incorporate the plugin into your daily routine, and how it goes beyond its uses as a translation app.

    There are so many methods for language learning out there. What’s worked best for me so far is self-studying through Immersive Translate. It’s a browser extension that supports over 100+ languages. I use it to watch my shows and movies on Netflix every day, which has really helped me integrate myself in my target language.
