→Total Immersion method of learning a new language
According to Cambridge Language Assessment: "There are numerous studies that show that students who are exposed to the language they’re learning in an immersive way, be it through a bilingual immersion programme at their school or a study-abroad experience, exhibit higher levels of fluency (e.g. Cummins 2009, Kinginger 2011, Wilkinson 1998), particularly when motivation to learn and absorb the language is high. The high motivation, in turn, is fostered by the desire to belong to or approximate the culture of the target language."<ref>[https://www.cambridgeenglish.org/blog/the-benefit-of-immersive-language-learning-experiences-and-how-to-create-them/#:~:text=There%20are%20numerous%20studies%20that,%2C%20Wilkinson%201998)%2C%20particularly%20when The benefit of immersive language-learning experiences and how to create them], Cambridge Language Assessment</ref>

According to Western Governors University: "A '''growth mindset''' means that you thrive on challenge, and don’t see failure as a way to describe yourself but as a springboard for growth and developing your abilities. Your [[intelligence]] and talents are all susceptible to growth. Dr. Carol Dweck of Stanford University first talked about the power of mindset nearly 30 years ago. Carol Dweck and her team became interested in the attitude of students when it comes to failure. After studying the behavior of students and children, the term “growth mindset” came about. Simply put, this mindset means that you believe in your ability to become better through hard work, and help from others."<ref>[https://www.wgu.edu/blog/what-is-growth-mindset-8-steps-develop-one1904.html#close What is a growth mindset? 8 steps to develop one.], Western Governors University</ref>
== Growth mindset vs. a fixed mindset ==
''See also:'' [[Growth mindset vs. a fixed mindset]]
According to Central Western University: " A growth mindset is how much you believe your basic qualities, like intelligence and talent, can be changed or developed. A fixed mindset is how much you believe your basic qualities are fixed or permanent."<ref>[https://www.cwu.edu/academics/academic-resources/learning-commons/_documents/cwu-growth-vs-fixed-mindset-lc.pdf Growth mindset vs. a fixed mindset]</ref>
Harvard Business School contrast a growth mindset vs. a fixed mindset thusly:
{{Cquote|[According to Dweck], challenging situations can be catastrophic for those with fixed mindsets because of the implication that if they don’t already have the skills or intelligence to complete a task, there’s no chance of improvement.
When you have a growth mindset, you believe you can gain the knowledge and skills necessary to succeed, which makes every challenge a learning opportunity. Given the numerous challenges entrepreneurs face, a growth mindset can be a powerful tool as you work toward your venture’s success.<ref>[https://online.hbs.edu/blog/post/growth-mindset-vs-fixed-mindset GROWTH MINDSET VS. FIXED MINDSET: WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?], Harvard Business School</ref>}}
The Harvard Business School points out that a growth mindset helps entrepreneurs enter new fields easier and it develops [[Psychological resilience|resilience]] because "When challenges, setbacks, and failures inevitably arise, your business’s survival depends on your ability to persevere and learn from difficult situations."<ref>[https://online.hbs.edu/blog/post/growth-mindset-vs-fixed-mindset GROWTH MINDSET VS.
