How to structure audio study sessions

1. Warm-up (5 min): Listen once to a short recording for general comprehension—don’t pause. Note the overall topic and tone.
2. Focused listening (10–15 min): Play the recording again, pausing after each sentence or segment. Identify the target grammar point (e.g., mixed conditionals, inversion with negative adverbials, cleft sentences).
3. Form-meaning mapping (10 min): For each example, say the sentence aloud, then paraphrase it in your own words to check meaning.
4. Production practice (10–15 min): Create 5–10 original sentences using the target structure and record yourself. Compare your recording with the model audio for rhythm and stress.
5. Extension (optional, 10–20 min): Use shadowing (speak simultaneously with the audio), role-play, or transform sentences (e.g., turn direct statements into clefts or inversions).
