How To Remember New English Vocabulary
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Remembering new vocabulary so that you can use it when you speak is one of the hardest things about learning a language. In this episode, I interview Paul, a learner from Slovakia, who uses a special method for remembering new vocabulary. Highlights from this episode are:
- some of the things he does differently to get results
- the importance of a 'whole sentence' method (and learning 'fluency phrases')
- the spaced repetition method, and the system he uses
- the effect of the Ebbinghaus forgetting curve
- how long the method takes him every day
