Ten minutes a day is a real plan

The most common reason people give up on a language is not difficulty. It is time. A two hour session feels impossible on a Tuesday, so it moves to Saturday, and then to next week.

Small and daily wins

Spaced repetition research is consistent: seeing material often, with gaps in between, beats seeing it for a long time once. Ten minutes a day gives you seventy minutes a week and, more importantly, seven reviews instead of one.

Attach it to something you already do

  • Read one story on your commute instead of scrolling.
  • Review flashcards while the coffee brews.
  • Finish the day with a single short dialogue before bed.

Lingostry keeps each story short enough to finish in one sitting and remembers exactly where you stopped, so a missed day costs you nothing but the day.
