Cutting Back on Chinese Vocabulary Studies and Focus on HSK 1 Preparation.

Its very painful to cut back in the Vocabulary Studies. But I have to. Like the Duo Lingo which I quit after hitting 370 day streak I had to reflect – where am I know?

So What I did was I looked at Sample HSK 1 tests and I could not pass the listening Comprehensions. I can read very slowly, but picking up a few words here and there is not enough. I need to be able to Comprehend and Listen.

Vocabulary is not Language. I have to narrow my Scope and Focus. So I’ve started focusing more on Audio Learning and Listening. I can SPEAK, its not hard to form Ideas. Comprehension is HARDER. Because it actually requires a feedback mechanism that current technology cannot provide.

I can talk to Google Translate and see if the what I am saying is comprehensible.

Challenges:

  1. HSK 1 focus. 
  2. Methodology. How do i have a Listening Feedback Loop?
  3. Relevance?
