I have been busy with work lately, so I haven’t been able to do much. I’m reading the grammar section of another HSK 4 textbook before I go to sleep. I hope to do more over the coming 4-day weekend.

I’ve been busy with work lately and really tired, so all I’m managing to do is Duolingo. I did about an hour today. We have a 4-day weekend coming up, and I plan to get back onto my test studies then.

I did a few lessons on Duolingo. I progressed from “restaurants” to “family”.

I practiced some skills on Duolingo and started a new HSK level 4 grammar and writing textbook. I did my 5 words of the day, but I need to review more – I’m forgetting too much!

I did about an hour of Duolingo today. I also tried to recall the imperfect tense endings from memory. I think I’ve got it. Next is the future tense.

I’m only doing Spanish as relaxation after studying Chinese and French, but I am getting into it. I did around 30 minutes today!

I did a lot today. I did the first unit from the HSK 3 standard course. I’ve decided to go back to the basics and study them alongside my HSK 4 material as I’m struggling a bit. I found the standard course unit easy to follow, but some example answers to the questions would be nice.
I also practiced a few skills on Duolingo and finished my HSK level 4 textbook. I’ll need to go through it a few more times, but I have another textbook, so I’m going to start on that for a change.

I did a lot today. I practiced some verb questions in my level 3 test textbook, and realised that I’m still confusing the past, conditional, subjunctive and future, so I’m going to focus on memorizing one a day. Today I memorized the past imperfect endings.
I did a lot of Duolingo too – maybe around an hour and a half.

I did 15 minutes on Duolingo. I’m still on the basics about travel, so it’s quite easy.

I just did my 5 words of the day. I’m going to start my HSK 3 standard course book tomorrow, and push on with the HSK level 4 reading. But I didn’t manage to do much today.
