Time spent listening to textbook audio and further Teatime Chinese

Two episodes of TeaTime Chinese; one new, one I had heard before and then read the text

Three more episodes of Teatime Chinese; two that I had listened to previously and one new one.
Concentration not yet 100%!!

Difficult to find enough time today. Two more interesting TeaTime Chinese episodes, but found there seemed to be quite a lot of unfamiliar vocabulary.

Three more episodes of Teatime Chinese. Some more challenging vocabulary in the last of these.

Have tried to consistently increase the length of time listening to Chinese; it's not easy; having started with an aim of 20 minutes a day have just about got up to the 60 min. mark but it is quite a challenge; usually two sessions, one in morning, one in evening. Teatime Chinese has been good, but in the evening sessions it has been tricky to sustain good concentration.

It continues to be a great exercise; I notice how often it takes me a minute or two to properly tune in to the podcasts!

Further Maomi Chinese and Teatime Chinese.
Went ok, but the last episode of Teatime Chinese I found difficult.

Three more episodes of Teatime Chinese.

Late this evening. Went ok but concentration not great!!!

Went ok - more Teatime Chinese - about 孔子

Continue to listen to MaomiChinese and TeatimeChinese. Trying to sustain more listening. It is interesting to note how easily the concentration wanders!

Made real effort to increase listening exposure! This 'challenge' is so interesting - makes clear what a challenge it is to immerse oneself in the language (without actually living in China!)

Managed to fit in more listening earlier in the day as well as later - Maomi Chinese and Teatime Chinese.

3 more episodes of TeaTime Chinese.

Listened to 4 MaoMi Chineses podcasts - all very interesting, and a further TeaTime Chinese podcast.
All very enjoyable. It is also great to spend time going back over the texts afterwards.

Two more episodes of Teatime Chinese. Very interesting

One episode of Maomi Chinese and a further two of TeaTime Chinese. Went ok, as before mostly understood but some parts not at all sure.

Listened from 8.40pm
Two more episodes of 茶歇中文. Very enjoyable, but find it frustrating when I don't understand sections!

Finished an unfinished session of tea time chinese, then went on the the next.
Went ok but some sections where I lost the plot a little - I try to follow up the next day by going through the transcript.

A further episode of TeaTime Chinese, and part of the next.
Went ok. Enjoying trying to 'let go' and just let the spoken words 'sink in'!

8.45pm
2 more episodes of TeaTime Chinese. Went ok - some parts I understand quite well, some parts not so well!

1pm and 9pm; listened to 2 episodes of Teatime Chinese.
Went ok; didn't understand every word but followed the general gist!
