Speaking a language is closer to playing football than to studying history. Motor skills are built by frequent short practice, not occasional long sessions.

A practical daily 15 minutes: five minutes of shadowing (speaking along with audio), five minutes narrating your day out loud in English, five minutes learning three new phrases you will actually use tomorrow.

The key is attaching practice to an existing habit — after morning tea, on the bus, before bed. Miss a day? Fine. Never miss two.

Our resource library has free five-minute drills designed exactly for this kind of daily practice.
