Ask yourself a question. How much time do you spend studying English everyday? I’m not talking about the studying you must do for school, I’m talking about the time that you spend on your own. If you are like most people, you study a lot one day, or for a few days, and then do nothing at all for several days. Then you start to feel guilty for not studying, so you decide that you are going to change that pattern again. You study very hard for a while and then eventually quit again.
Studying for 20 minutes every day is much better than studying for 2 hours and 20 minutes once a week. Your brain can only take in a certain amount of information at one time. If you study for longer than that at one time then you will forget much of what you have learned. Also, if you study for a short time each day, your brain has a chance to think about what you just learned, and then practice it before you study again the next day. Make studying a habit. Don’t have an all or nothing attitude. 10 minutes is still better than nothing. Always remember that.
Listen to a podcast, write a comment, read a blog. Just make sure you do something every day. If you can spend more time that is great, but make sure you can do something every single day. I challenge you to study English for 20 min every day for the next 30 days. You can’t do nothing one day and then 40 minutes the next. That doesn’t count. The challenge is that you must do it every single day for 30 days. Do you think you can do it? I know you can.
