Practice rule that changes everything

Do not only memorize sentences. Train patterns:

• "I want..."
• "I need..."
• "Can I..."
• "Where is..."
• "How much is..."

When patterns become automatic, you can create new sentences faster.

End-of-week checklist

At the end of each week, ask:

• Can I start a short conversation without panic?
• Can I ask follow-up questions?
• Can I recover after a mistake?
• Am I speaking every day, even briefly?
