Journal daily. Each week, review the week’s journal entries and review the previous weekly entry. Set your targets for the coming week. At the end of each month, compare each of the four end of week journal entries and also review the previ

Yeah but you basically get two stories every unit so it’s not a lot of practice. It’s weird that they have dedicated speaking and listening lessons but no dedicated writing lessons (you could count stories or general practice as reading). I

Nuraphones, they have extra speakers just for bass and an 'immersion' slider to fine tune it. I doubt you'll find anything better. They're not the comfiest things in the world though. https://www.nurasound.com
