spiritual learner | beginner | slow-boil
This slow-boil process is to be undertaken with one’s children. It can be extremely fulfilling but requires time and a willingness to adjust in order to make it an enjoyable experience. The curriculum can be self-designed and needs to be tweaked and refined based on plateaus and ages of the children.
The following is one possible template
- Learn the script (if it has a different script to your first language) using visualisation
- Read children’s books together, depending on how quick you or your children are, you could alternate per page
- Watch children’s cartoons together. Search ‘you language + fairy tales’ on YouTube for an array of entry level stuff
- Come up with a frequent sentences chart and slowly implement them into your day-to-day communication. ‘Frequent Sentences’ are the phrases we repeat, sometimes a number of times each day, eg. “I’m going to the toilet”, “put your shoes on”, “are you hungry?”
- start a custom-made Memrise course based on common words you encounter while reading.
