She shared four key strategies for learning Hindi, emphasising the importance of:
Grammar: Understanding Hindi grammar is crucial, and finding a good coach or resource can make a significant difference. "Find a good grammar coach, book, or resource. It makes all the difference," she said.
Immersion: Surrounding herself with native speakers and using Hindi in real-life conversations helped her learn faster. "Find a native speaker to spend time with—preferably someone who doesn't speak English. That way, you're forced to use Hindi in real conversations," she explained.
Consistency: Ms Fischer stressed that learning Hindi takes time and effort, recommending a minimum of 2-3 years of consistent practice.
Effective Learning Methods: She credited online classes and the Growing Participator Approach (GPA) method for her success in learning Hindi
The video has resonated with viewers, earning praise for Ms Kristen's dedication to learning Hindi. Users appreciated her fluency, with many commenting on her clear diction and encouraging others to follow her example. Some highlighted her impressive language skills, comparing her favorably to other foreigners who may struggle with Hindi pronunciation.
One user wrote, "Lol… have been living here all my life, and still can't speak Hindi as fluently as you."
Another commented, "I am amazed at your fluency and the diction. Fab job. What is GPA method."
A third said, "Your Hindi is so clear! Unlike most foreigners."
A fourth added, "I am amazed to hear your Hindi with a perfect accent. If you are behind a curtain no one can tell the difference between an Indian and American."
A fifth user stated, "In a world too often divided by differences, your embrace of Hindi is truly admirable. It is a powerful gesture that transcends boundaries and connects hearts. Wishing you continued success and discovery on this beautiful linguistic journey."
