Hi everyone,

Starting the first of June, I’m going on a 4-week intensive language learning sprint. I’ll be staying at home the entire time, and my only goal is to dive as deep as possible into this language.

The Setup:

No Phone: I’m completely ditching my smartphone for the full 4 weeks to kill any chance of distraction.

The Materials: I’ve got my physical textbooks ready. For audio and video lessons, I’ll be using a family member's device strictly for study sessions—no social media, no scrolling.

Starting Point: I’m currently at a basic A1.1 level.

The Language Difficulty:

I’m keeping the name of the language anonymous because I want objective feedback, not personal opinions or "it's too hard" comments. To give you an idea of the workload, it’s officially ranked as a Category 2 difficulty language. It has its fair share of grammar hurdles and logic, but it's not at the extreme end of the scale.

My questions for the sub:

Has anyone here tried a "digital detox" or a "no-phone" immersion challenge like this? Any advice on how to stay sane and productive?

Realistically, what level do you think I can hit by the end of these 4 weeks if I'm consistent?

Thanks in advance for the tips!
