Why 10 minutes a day works

Language sticks through spaced repetition, not marathon sessions. A short daily loop — hear it (video), understand it (lesson), say it (task) — touches the same phrases three ways while they’re still fresh. Miss a day? Saaralla — no worries. The plan is a ladder, not a treadmill: just climb back on at the next day.
