How to use the Language Learning Progress Planner.
A language progress plan should use observable tasks and manageable practice. Self-rated confidence and test performance measure different things, so track both without promising a proficiency level by a fixed date.
Make the workflow fit your task.
Define an observable communication task and assess an initial attempt. Schedule manageable practice of its component skills, then repeat a comparable task at review time. Track performance and confidence separately, adjusting the plan to the learner's actual progress.
- What you provide
- Learning goals, available time and skill gaps.
- What you get
- Balanced practice plan with measurable checkpoints.

Example input
Learner can introduce themselves but struggles to arrange appointments. Twenty minutes daily for two weeks. Goal: complete a simple appointment role-play; no proficiency-level promise.
Completed example
Day 1: attempt an appointment role-play and note problems with dates, requests and clarification. Days 2–5: daily 5 minutes date vocabulary, 5 minutes request phrases, 10 minutes short exchanges. Days 6–7: practice changing an unavailable time and confirming the final details. Days 8–12: vary the dates and repeat exchanges without reading the full script. Day 13: review recurring errors. Day 14: repeat a comparable role-play. Check whether date, time and purpose are confirmed; record confidence separately.

Decisions and troubleshooting.
Should a two-week plan promise a new proficiency level?
No. Use a specific task outcome and observable criteria; broad proficiency depends on more than a short schedule.
Why does confidence improve while task accuracy stays unchanged?
They measure different aspects of progress. Review errors and practice choices without treating confidence as an accuracy score.
