SDLC 110: Learning Journal 14

This semester I learned a lot not just about the Turkish language and culture, but also about myself as a language learner. At the beginning of this semester I was nervous that it would be really hard for me to start learning a third language given that the only other language I know other than my L1 is Spanish which I started learning at the age of 5 and in an immersion program. I was apprehensive about learning a language in the conventional classroom style and on my own through technology. However, this semester has shown me that I think my brain having already learned a second language is primed to learn other languages as well. I have re-established techniques that I've used in learning Spanish when it come to learning vocabulary or constructing phrases. Obviously I am still very much a beginner level Turkish learner, but I hope that I can keep learning on my own until I can find someone to practice with and teach me more Turkish back at home.
