In today's episode, I will talk about an issue that is of great concern to language students. It is the much-feared plateau. 

What is a plateau? A plateau happens when you stop your progress despite continuing to do "all the right things." 

An interesting expression for this situation is: to hit a plateau. 

For example:

"It seems I hit a plateau because I can't see any progress with my English, and I'm still studying really hard!"
