僕の生徒に勉強のやり方について聞いたらどのぐらい勉強しているか一週何回勉強しているか知りたいです。週一回？週末だけ？毎日ちょっと勉強すること？
ほっとんど皆さんは週一回とレッスンの時間と言います。週末に時間があるから週末は一番いいです。しかし、すごくサクセスフルな生徒に聞いたら「毎日ちょっと勉強します」と答えます。
なぜそれは本当ですか？理由としては勉強する習慣を作っていることだからです。毎日勉強するとその習慣を作って自然的にモチベーションと自信が出ます。このポイントはすごくサクセスを持つための一番大事なポイントです。
アクションタスク：毎日少なくともどれぐらい勉強する時間出来ますか？少なくても大丈夫です！１つだけのアクティビティーを選んで（ブログを読んでコメントを書いたりする、自分で話して録音する、など）その勉強を毎日絶対にやるのが一番大切です。すぐに上達します！
これは英語の上達方法です。これはEnglish 2.0です。英語のOSをアップグレードしましょう！

When I ask students about their study habits, I want to know how much they are studying but also how frequently they are studying. Do they study once a week? Only on weekends? A little bit everyday?
A majority of them tend to study only once a week and that may include lesson time. Some prefer to study on the weekends because they have more time. However, when asking my top students who have achieved success, they tend to answer: “I study a little bit everyday.”
Why is studying as little as 15 minutes a day more effective than 2 hours on Saturday? The answer is about building habits. When you add that consistency into your life, you build valuable habits which naturally produce motivation and confidence. These are the keys to massive success.
Action Step: Think about how much time you can study per day. Don’t worry if it’s small! Starting even with 5 minutes is OK! Choose a particular study action (Reading an English blog and writing comments, Speaking and recording yourself, etc.) and commit to doing that action everyday! You will start to see great improvement very quickly!

Hi Hideko,
It sounds like you’re doing a lot of studying and more importantly practicing! That’s great! Keep it up and keep doing it everyday. That’s the key! Nice job and thanks for your comments!

Great article and great blog. I agree 100%. Those habits are very important! Also, when you only study once per week you forget easily. It’s like saying, “Okay done with English for the week. No more English until next week.” Not so productive.
Languages are a long journey!! Little and consistent is much better than large chunks of time and then leaving it for a week or two.
Thanks for the info!
Hey Brian,
Yes, I’m a big believer in building good habits and letting them lead you to success. I think that sometimes students get into the mentality of “I’m doing something once a week so it is enough to achieve success”, pretty much what you mentioned there. As we know, it’s often not enough to reach their goals, at least in a reasonable time frame.
I think we’re on the same page as far as language learning is concerned. Thanks for checking out the blog and thanks for your comment!

When I am in my job in from my computer I tried to heard many podcast as much as I can, I do the same when I am working out in the gym or when I am on my way to my work.
Also I use memrise and duolingo when I am in the bus.
When I am busy I tried to invest short periods of time by day using the above but when I have enough time I can invest more time doing another times.
Hi Daniel,
Thanks for sharing your study habits with us! It sounds like you are keeping busy. More importantly, you are doing something everyday which is a key to improvement! Excellent!
