There are lots of savvy language learners with different interests, different personalities, and different opportunities, but there are two things they pretty much all have in common:
- Savvy language learners consume large amounts of well-chosen content.
- Savvy language learners engage in both scheduled and opportunistic habits.
Check out this infographic–or indwellfographic–for a handy overview of wise principles pertaining to content and action.
Oh, and avoid the number one mistake in language learning!

Salve, Iuste!
I’d love to make this into a poster. Any suggestions how I might do that? Would you allow that? I think you need one more statement at the bottom to include Latin. 🙂 I know…then you’d have to include all other languages. Where do you draw the line?
Hope you are doing well!

Salve, Luna!
A poster of this would be so cool! As for how to do it, I would just check at FedEx vel sim–I’m sure they’ve dealt with tall files like infographics before. (This one is 800x2000px.)
I realized that some of the content in the version I originally posted was from an older version, so I took the opportunity to add Latin while I was fixing that =)
I’m busy getting ready for five (!) upcoming presentations, but enjoying the work.
Happy mid-October!
