Greetings,
I've landed a job of which (unfortunately) requires a 2.5 hour commute every day. Even though I'd prefer not to commute for that long, I can at least spend it on improving my Japanese. There's plenty of resources on recommended listening material so I'm not asking for that; I'm rather curious if there are others here who've frontloaded their learning with listening as opposed to direct studies. I'm doing Kaishi 1.5k (I'm at ~200 cards) and slowly progressing there, but given my commute the amount of cards I've added has drastically slowed down.
Has anybody been in a somewhat equal position? Are there perhaps more ways to solidify this listening that I might not be aware of? What has been your experience if you've heavily upped your listening time?
