Behind every session
Every day, the same small loop.
- HoyA fresh plan
Each morning: new words, the reviews that are due, one grammar stop and something to listen to. Five, fifteen or thirty minutes.
- SesiónShort exercises
Flashcards first, then quiz questions, then writing, like the five above.
- RepasoMisses come back
A wrong answer returns two to four cards later, and again tomorrow, until it sticks.
- MañanaGaps that grow
Each right answer pushes the next review further out. Spaced repetition (FSRS) does the timing.
