Bront'e | Language Learning Coach

It doesn't make sense to force a 2-hour session of studying if you dread it, it burns you out, AND you can accomplish the same progress if not more in 30 minutes or less.

It's not about adding more to your language routine. It's about being strategic with your study time so you can see actual progress.

And fun is how you make consistent progress with ease. 💜

Language learning becomes fun the moment you stop trying to do it "the right way."

If you want a deeper dive into what I'm talking about, it all starts here:

So, if you're struggling to see progress in your studies, stop going through the motions, and take some time to redefine what progress means to you.

Because once you do, you're going to be able to create a plan and choose resources that focus on THAT, and ignore everything else.

As an intermediate learner, you might not need to know 5 new words every session.

Instead, you might just need to internalize those words and know how to use them or understand them better.

That definition of progress is not the same, and that's okay!

Progress as a beginner is, for example, learning five new words that you didn't know before.

You learn those 5, and it might me easy. Or, it might be the hardest thing you've ever done.

Either way, you start to recognize more than you did before.

You're making REAL sentences.

As you drift into the intermediate stage, progress feels like it's slowing down because studying doesn't feel like it has the same impact as it did before.

The reason?

You're using the same measurement of progress that you did as a beginner for an intermediate learner and they're not the same.

At the beginning stage of learning any language, progress is easily defined because you know nothing.

You're a baby.

The world is shiny, and your brain is making a ton of new connections.

EVERYTHING you learn is progress and you will always know more than you did before.

If you're not seeing progress in your language studies (or you feel like you aren't), it's because you haven't defined what progress means to you.

That's it!

Goals are one part of the process, and once you have ones that are strategic and achievable, then it's about taking action and actually doing the work to hit that milestone.

But if you look at goals like "reach B2", and struggle to turn that into an actual study plan, you don't want to skip this~

I don't want you wasting your time on something you aren't going to use and apply to your own studies.

But on the other hand, if you're someone who:

🚫 Loves chaos & thinks your progress should always be unpredictable

🚫 Is a true fan of procrastination & waiting for progress to magically happened

🚫 Isn't ready to put in the effort of achieving your study goals

Then...maybe skip this one!

So if you're someone who:

▶️ sets tons of goals for your language studies but never seems to achieve them

▶️ constantly changes your goals when you don't reach them

▶️ studies often but doesn't see any progress

▶️ struggles to say consistent in general

...you probably want to grab this workshop!

The reality is that goal setting, especially with language learning is actually 2 separate parts:

1) setting personalized goals that are show how YOU expect to use the those languages

2) breaking goals into something that is achievable in the short-term so you can see more progress over time

I created my GGA Workshop because tons of people who want my help with their studies tend to set goals like these:

👉🏾 Reach B2 in French
👉🏾 Learn more vocabulary
👉🏾 Improve my listening skills
👉🏾 Build speaking confidence & talk more

The truth is, those goals aren't enough to make progress.
