Individual skill

language-learning

Coaches a language learner with a CEFR-targeted plan built on comprehensible input, spaced repetition, and early speaking practice, including daily minimums, a session template, and a weekly schedule. Use when someone says "help me learn Spanish", "I keep forgetting vocabulary", "how do I get from A2 to B1", or "design my daily language routine". Do NOT use for general exam or academic study techniques - use study-system instead.

# Language Learning

Languages are acquired through massive comprehensible input - material just above the learner's current level - plus consistent retrieval, not through grammar study alone. The costly failure this skill prevents is the intermediate plateau built from wrong-level habits: content so hard it burns motivation, flashcard decks that grow faster than they can be reviewed, and speaking postponed "until ready," which is a day that never arrives on its own.

## Inputs to collect

1. Target language. No default.
2. Current level on the CEFR scale (A1 beginner → C2 mastery). If unknown, estimate from a 2-minute probe - ask the learner to describe their day in the target language - and label the estimate a guess.
3. Goal: travel, conversation, work, or exam, plus the target CEFR level. Default: conversational B1.
4. Time budget per day. Default: 30 minutes. Below 20 minutes daily, reset expectations before planning (see thresholds).
5. Speaking access: tutor, exchange partner, or neither. Shapes Step 4.
