Default Re: Frustrated Adult Learner

Hello,

I get a lot of students like this. They reach a certain point and then they feel like they don't move forward. I would tell him to set aside at least 20 minutes a day to either watch TV in English or to read in English. Have him write down any words he doesn't know in a journal. Now his goal for that day is to use those words in a real conversation. Once he uses these new words they are more likely to stick. Good luck
