Lesson Overview

9.13 – Practicing Routes in Advance for Appointments: Practicing routes ahead of time reduces anxiety and boosts confidence for important trips. Try taking a dry run to your destination before the actual appointment to learn timing, landmarks, and stops. This helps you estimate how early you should leave and prepares you for any confusing intersections or transfers. Writing notes or saving screenshots of maps ensures you won’t forget key directions. Practicing with a friend or family member can help the first few times, especially for longer routes. The more familiar you are with the journey, the smoother your actual trip will be. It’s a great way to build habits of punctuality and preparation. This kind of practice also teaches resilience—if something goes wrong, you’ll already know what to do. Over time, route practice becomes part of your routine, building steady independence and comfort with travel challenges.
