Practical: Set yourself
    learning goals that you can achieve. For example, it might not be practical to
      IELTS 8.0 within a semester if your current IELTS level is 5.5. So set yourself achievable
        .
        Specific: Your learning goals should be
          . For example, the learning goal ‘do more grammar exercises’ is too general. However if you focus your
            on ‘prepositions of time’, the target is easier to identify and therefore more
              .
              Manageable: You should
                time for the planned learning activities. For example, if you put ‘listen to the news in English every day’, you must make sure that you have the time to do so. You need to look at your timetable to
                  which days are the best to practise your listening skills. If your schedule is too tight, you could end up putting unnecessary pressure on yourself which will affect the
                    of the activity and your enjoyment of it.
