How do Warm Ups work?
Warm Ups bring past phrases back to the front of your mind so they’re easier to keep using while you add something new.
They’re part of the Signature Box Program because the phrases in each Box are designed to build on each other within a similar topic.
Boosters don’t have Warm Ups because their phrases can be more varied. Instead, Booster phrases come back through Reviews.
When do Warm Ups appear?
You’ll see a Warm Up before Practice Sessions #2–10 in each Challenge.
There is no Warm Up before Practice Session #1 because you haven’t practiced any Focus Phrases in that Challenge yet.
Which phrases are included?
Your Warm Up includes the Focus Phrases you previously practiced in that Challenge during your current Tour.
What do I do during a Warm Up?
For each phrase, play the native-speaker audio and practice the phrase either:
- in a situation, or
- with an emotion
Then tap Continue to move to the next phrase.
Once you finish the Warm Up, the app will congratulate you and take you into your Practice Session.
Can I choose my new Focus Phrase before finishing the Warm Up?
Yes.
You can choose your next Focus Phrase before completing the Warm Up, but you’ll need to finish the Warm Up before you can practice that phrase.
Do I have to do the Warm Up and Practice Session at the same time?
No.
You can complete your Warm Up the night before and come back to practice your new Focus Phrase the next day.
Can I come back to a Warm Up later?
If you leave a Warm Up before finishing it, you can come back and continue where you left off.
Once you complete the Warm Up, though, it won’t be shown again.
