Learning new English words is easy. Remembering them when you speak is the hard part. In this lesson, I’ll teach you a simple 4-step method that turns “dead” vocabulary on the page into words you can actually use. The secret: treat words like tools. A single word by itself means almost nothing. But when you “anchor” it, it stays in your memory and becomes ready to use in real conversations. I’ll also share 3 study tips that speed everything up. Follow this method and you’ll finally move vocabulary from “I know it” to “I can use it.”
Stop translating the word into your own language, this seems absurb, but I think James is right. It’s hard.
Thank you very much James.

first, I translate it into my language, then I hear it again in English, is that right?

I enjoy doing the Quiz, because it helps me to find out my mistakes.

The lesson was really interesting. I’m an English teacher myself, though I feel I still have a lot to improve. I’ll surely use your tips in my future classes! Thanks!
