Hey folks!
I work pretty much 9-6pm, then go to the gym and eat and by the time it’s the evening I’m quite shattered mentally.
Recently I’ve been doing flashcards on my Du Chinese app and then reading one article (which takes me about 20 minutes). I’ve kept that up so far, so at least I am having some sort of small progress.
However, I am looking for more help. What others things did you do that work you more up to fluency?
I am HSK4 level, just finished HSK4 Shang with a tutor on Preply. I used to have 2-3 lessons a week, but since my work schedule has become busy I find doing that difficult.
I want to get to a point where I can speak conversationally in real life, also read simple manga and stories, which is why I am focusing on using Du Chinese at the moment.

I used apps before like HelloTalk to talk to natives, but I realised a lot of it becomes me scrolling and wasting time on there, or exchanging a couple of messages before not speaking to somebody ever again.
I feel like I’m hitting a wall at the moment and getting quite disheartened, but I know that it’s a long process. I have been learning Chinese on and off for about 5-6 years.
Any help or advice I would be open to! I am looking for something that I can do daily that is sustainable in a busy schedule, but also fun as well! I don’t want to make it feel like a huge chore which is what it feels like at the moment.
