Education
I wanted to make this podcast today because summer is right around the corner and I’ve seen too many people over the years make the mistake of pausing their language studies during this time. In general, I advise against this because:
- Consistency and fluency go hand-in-hand and,
- While you may have the best of intentions now, it is very common for people to give up on trying to learn a language by the time the fall comes around due to a lack of motivation or a change in priorities.
Therefore, I don’t believe it to be a good idea to drop everything for the sake of having an “enjoyable summer.” Instead, you can do one of the following:
- If you have a busy summer, reduce the amount of time you study or, preferably, use the 5/3 method I mention in this video.
- If your schedule is not changing much this summer, maintain the same study schedule you have now.
- If you will have more time than usual this summer, schedule some intensive studies. You can cut the time to fluency in half just by getting disciplined by 2 months.
