Learning a language without formal institutions
Hey, I'm a complete novice in the area of language minus a brief stint of German in high school. I have studied anthropology as an undergraduate and am doing a graduate degree in law and want to add a language to my repertoire. The problem is, with all that study I don't have room to fit in formal institutions to teach me.
My question is to the experienced language vets in here that have self-taught themselves a language. What is the best way to go about it? I'm thinking Mandarin Chinese at the moment seeing as that's the way the world is going and I want my language to complement my studies but I'm open to other languages such as French (for Africa) or Spanish (I want to travel that region of the world).
How does one teach themselves these languages?
Cheers.
