The graph below illustrates a vacation free twice a week study model (90 minutes on lesson and 90 minutes on homework). Studying in five days a week instead of two may not necessarily increases the speed of study by 2.5 times. It all depends on each individual’s Japanese level while it is also time consuming for one to establish its proficiency in grammar and vocabulary.
