order of lessons

I just completed the section 1 of my program. I started with section 1.1 and then did 1.2 and so on. What is the best order to do the lessons? It seems that doing some of the language, culture or bonus lessons earlier would be better. Obrigado! Mike

I suggest you do 1.6 (first language & culture lesson) with 1.1 (first interactive audio lesson), then 1.7 (second language & culture lesson) with 1.2 (second interactive audio lesson) and so on. The language and culture lessons complement the interactive audio lessons. As for the bonus lessons, it doesn't matter as much, but do them as you complete the regular lessons. You might want to do the bonus lessons that deal with numbers early.

Now I'm onto section 2. I just completed section 2.1. Any thoughts on the best approach? Thanks

I suggest you do the corresponding language and culture lessons. It should appear right below 2.1 on the dashboard.

Thanks for your post. We try to be flexible with our courses, so there is no set-in-stone way of progressing through the lessons. If you're not sure where to start, I recommend following the Study Plan format initially, until you become familiar with the types of lessons included in the course, taking the Tests as you go. After that, you will probably have a better idea of what suits you better. One thing the Study Plan doesn't include is the Games (see the drop down list). So if you feel like mixing things up a bit, you could check them out and try to get through a level or two. I hope this helps!

I agree that the dashboard "study plan" is a good guide to follow. However, it suggests you do the first 4 or 5 "Interactive Audio" lessons followed by the 4-5 corresponding "Language and Culture" lessons. When people follow that plan, they may begin to notice that the first "Language and Culture" lesson complements the first "Interactive Audio" lesson. I think users would be better served if the study plan suggested alternating between the "Interactive Audio" lessons and "Language and Culture" lessons.
