There was a study done where they took 2 groups of students: Group A, and Group B
The goal of the study to see which students would perform better based on their learning strategy
Group A read all of the material ONCE then took practice tests
Group B read and reread the books, vocab and everything else
On EXAM day Group A outperformed Group B by ALOT
And that is because they confused similarity with mastery
When your learning a new language you don’t want to be like Group B
Don’t read and familiarize yourself with material, or just study some textbooks, or study grammar rules
NO don’t do that
You must actually USE that knowledge so once you have learned something once lets say yesterday we learned I want. I have and I need
BOOOM you learned it and then you used it RIGHT AWAY
And that is how you should use vocabulary and that is the best way to actually learn it in context
Because if you learn vocabulary out of context and just see random letters you will never achieve fluency and mastery over that language
In the end, if you want to learn Vocabulary learn it once and use it many times and then it will get stuck in your brain in context
Thanks for this post our conversation yesterday sparked this topic PS: The classroom has some good material on this and what words you should remember
Sending everyone Love and Peace ❤️🔥✌🏻
