What is a language learning program?

A language learning program is a detailed plan of action to help you achieve your language learning goals. A program consists of

• language learning objectives
• strategies to achieve the objectives
• things to do to implement the strategies, and
• resources to help you meet the objectives.

You can be in charge of your own personal language learning program, even if you go to language school or use commercially-available materials. Keep your goals in mind and see how each resource and activity helps you achieve them.
