As always, let’s take some time to reflect on and share progress. Any wins lately? Hit any setbacks?

    I’ve been doing 5 minute Spanish lesson during lunch for a while now. Like, 2+ years, probably more. Didn’t feel like I was making any progress, but it’s something to do on my phone other than doom scroll. Last week I was at an actual Mexican burrito place, and the guy behind me ordered in Spanish. And I understood it.

    Whoa!

      Copying others is the easiest language exercise you can possibly do. Just listen then parrot them.

      So don’t just listen. ALSO repeat, either in your minds eye or even out loud if you don’t find it embarrassing.
