NOTE!
Reminder of the Basic Essentials for
Language Students
1. Time for Lesson Review
In learning languages, the thorough review of a lesson before moving on to the next lesson is essential in successfully learning the language i.e. scheduling time post-actual-class-time throughout the course.
2. Patience!
The learning process takes time and gradually builds; learning grammar and memorizing vocabulary can be tedious, but there is ease after successfully crossing it.
