Learning English can be difficult for people like Vanessa who have a lot of responsibilities:

Sometimes I wish there were 48 hours in a day! I'm a new immigrant, and I have to take care of my two boys while also managing my own new business. Finding the time to attend a formal English class seems impossible for me.

English teacher Ai Lin believes that we don't need to "find time" for learning English; instead, we can develop good habits. In this episode, we talk about common mistakes that can hold back people's learning progress. Ai Lin also shares a one-week English learning plan to help Vanessa incorporate English learning into her busy life.
