My plan for learning Italian this semester mainly focuses on practical use of the language like speaking and listening since I believe that is how I started off with all the languages I have learned. That requires daily conversation with a native speaker and inputs from TV shows or music. However, prior to that, I allow at least month of review on grammar and syntax in Italian since as the formal aspect of the language, those are crucial for successful language learning.
Weekly, I'll spend at least 5 hours on practicing speaking, listening, and talking to a native speaker. I find it effective to speak the language that I am learning when I wake up in the morning because that is when my brain has full capacity before any other inputs from different subjects. Later on before sleep I think it is important to memorize vocabs to make my expressions more accurate and capable of handling different subjects in the conversations.
In general, i will focus on grammar first in order to be precise and then move on to speaking.
