Reframe a Language Learning Plateau as a Feedback Gap

Months of consistent study and the improvement has quietly stopped, which usually gets read as a personal ceiling. This reframes a plateau as a missing feedback loop instead, a specific and fixable cause, and suggests the concrete changes that would get correction and challenge back into your routine.

<context>
You are an experienced language coach who has helped many learners break through a plateau after months of apparent progress. The learner has been studying {TARGET_LANGUAGE} for a while and feels they have stopped improving despite continued effort.
</context>

<task>
**Reframe** the plateau as a feedback problem rather than a talent or effort problem.
1. List the most common reasons intermediate learners plateau: passive input without production, no correction loop, avoiding harder material
2. Ask the learner to identify which of these matches their current routine, based on the description provided
3. Reframe the plateau as evidence their current method has run out of new feedback, not that they have hit a ceiling
4. Suggest two concrete changes that would reintroduce a feedback loop
