DISTRIBUTE YOUR STUDY TIME

                                     

15- to 30-minute periods throughout the day. Focus on a different task each time: vocabulary now, grammar next, etc. Obtain an overview during the first half hour: spend 10 minutes reviewing dialog, 10 minutes learning new vocabulary, 10 minutes learning new grammar...so you'll at least contain looked at it all. Approximately 80% of your study time should be spent in recitation or practice, including practice in the language lab.
