My usual routine now Spoonfed new cards and pronunciation practice in the car. Also started New Practical Chinese Reader Vol 2. Read the first two dialogues outloud.

More spoonfed mimicking. I if I can keep up with this for a few months I wonder what the results will be. Also, read out loud two Chinese For Us HSK 3 stories. Reading out loud is far more difficult than repeating phrases so I need to do this more. For the latest story my tones were suffering a bit so I went over an older one and recorded myself and it was better.

Went over my new anki sentences this morning and then practiced older ones in the car on MP3. If you don't want spend a lot of money on glossika I highly recommend getting the spoonfed Chinese deck and using it in conjunction with the mp3 files so you can practice anywhere. So far it's working extremely well for me. Practicing in the car is forcing me to say the sentences faster then when I just use anki and I'm retaining them a lot better. You can download the mp3 files here: https://www.reddit.com/r/ChineseLanguage/comments/e6sj35/19_hours_of_chinese_audio_as_mp3s_generated_from/

Spoonfed Chinese sentence mimicking. I did my reviews and new cards this morning and also downloaded ripped MP3 for the cards, so I am basically using it similar to Glossika now. I plan on trying to do this exercise everyday on way to and from work in the car, so we will see how it goes.
Great idea! I love that Spoonfed deck. I let my Anki reviews slip for the last couple days, but actually really enjoy that particular set of cards and the way they build on each other. I'll be interested to hear how the car-practice routine goes!

I love this idea. As I said earlier, I'm really into that deck. But the thought of listening to all that computer-generated English is... just yuck. LOL! That said, I'm glad it doesn't drive you crazy and is working so well for you. Also, I'm inspired to try creating some similar tracks for future mimicking, maybe building them up with ffmpeg or something. A project for a future day!
