Regular daily practice, both in reading and writing the shorthand. With memorising the load can get heavier, but with practising the writing gets easier as familiarity increases. Write out short sentences from the instruction book on the top line of the notepad, and then copy the shorthand down the page.

How hard is it to learn shorthand?

The basics of Pitman's Shorthand can be learned in three months if you work through your instruction book and practise regularly. Teeline is simpler so may be quicker to learn. Shorthand learning needs a different approach than school work, as you are aiming to be able to write it without thinking, like you do in longhand. This is why practising is essential for success and for increasing speed and accuracy. Working through the book quickly helps to maintain interest and motivation, and overcomes the unfamiliarity when learning a new subject.

What is the best way to learn a language?

The question is unclear... By "best way" do you mean quickest, easist, or the method with better results. But with all those ways to learn it, here are some answers. I heard Rosetta Stone worked well. You can take a class in school, but if you want the easiest way it depends on the teacher. I recently learned that in the learning pyramid the best way to learn is to teach. If you learn things from a teacher, teach that to a friend or family member. It IS proven that when you show someone something, it actually helps you remembering it. If you are teaching someone something and they understand, that means you understand. Another way you can learn it easy and fast is by using the old fashion way. Study and practice! You might not believe me, but this is actually the second best way to learn something quick and easy. _______ The best way is to immerse yourself in the language. Go to a place where the language is spoken, and deal with it, or otherwise surround yourself with speakers who will discourage the use of your native language. Surround youself with the language that you are willing to learn. It may sound obvious, but not many people do it. If you can, move to a country were the language you would like to learn is the official language- your brain will have no option but to speak in the foreign language.You'll be amazed at the results! If not, then change your phone,iPod, computer to the desired language, or you could watch films you know well with the language audio description- this is probably the easiest way whilst still not having migranes!
