Beginner: Focus on learning the vocabulary list, and try to pick up on the pronunciation by reciting the words after they're read out.

Intermediate: Try learning all of the sentences, reciting them back once they've been read, picking up on the grammar of each sentence.

Advanced: Simply listen to the video and look away from your screen to see how much you could understand.
