Grammar

"Learning English grammar can take varying amounts of time depending on individual learning pace, study habits, and the depth of knowledge desired. While basic grammar can be grasped in a few days, mastering it to a fluent level can take hundreds or even thousands of hours of study and practice according to language learning platforms and language learning experts...

Advanced Fluency:

To reach an advanced level of English grammar proficiency, where you can understand complex texts, express yourself clearly in writing, and use a wide range of grammar structures and idioms, it can take around 1,200 hours of study."[1]

Estimated time

Key point: Mnemonics, accelerated learning and deliberate practice can shorten the learning curve.

Mnemonics:

Jerry Lucas in the forward of the book The Memory Book: The Classic Guide to Improving Your Memory at Work, at School, and at Play indicated that he was a member Phi Beta Kappa (College honors society), but studied 25% of the time other college students studied.

Deliberate practice:

"Deliberate practice can significantly shorten the learning curve, but its impact varies depending on the field and individual factors. While it's not a guarantee of mastery, deliberate practice, characterized by focused effort and targeted feedback, can accelerate progress and lead to faster skill acquisition compared to less structured approaches."[2]

"Evidence suggests that deliberate practice can significantly shorten the learning curve by improving both the rate of skill acquisition and the efficiency of learning, particularly for lower-performing individuals."[3]
