Unit Summaries
MEASURE YOUR PROGRESS

After completing each unit, write a short summary in your own words. Force yourself to explain what you learned without looking at your notes. If you can't explain it simply, you haven't learned it yet.

Raise the Bar
PUSH YOUR LIMITS

Fluency requires deliberate exposure to content above your current level. Plan how you'll raise your own bar this week — on both input (what you consume) and output (what you produce).

🎧 Audiovisual
Podcasts, films, TV shows, YouTube — slightly above your current level
📖 Reading

Which challenge had the biggest impact?
Which skill have I been neglecting?
What's the next bar I need to raise?
One habit I'll keep going no matter what:
