First, you can set priorities. So, everyone has their own priorities. So for example, if your priority is to be able to speak well, then you can very well set yourself small time slots where you really work on your expression. It could be workshop sessions at a Language Resource Center, conversation sessions or you could very well find friends to talk with. It’s completely personal, it depends on everyone.
Afterwards, it would be ideal for you to prepare a small program based on your availability.
If you know what time of the week you are available, you can set two or three slots that suit you well.
This brings us to the subject of regularity, which is a very important issue in language learning, so it would be good if you tried to really stick to your program and every week you said to yourself, today I’m going to work on my language and so it’s important to really focus on that.
Regarding the slots, you can very well choose slots of 20 minutes, 30 minutes, or even 1 hour, but we know today that it is preferable to choose 3 slots of 20 minutes, rather than one one hour block..
You can also ask yourself the question of taking notes. It is up to you to see if you will need other additional supports such as a notebook or your computer where you can write down the new vocabulary words you are learning or of course, any other support that seems appropriate to you.
