This Student's Vocabulary Surprised Me!
A student of mine (hi Ion!) really surprised me recently by how quickly his vocabulary was growing.
All of a sudden, he started using obscure words and authentic Scottish slang in our conversations. Most of these words and expressions we had only briefly covered a week or two earlier.
Not only was he remembering the new words, but he was also able to recall them when speaking.
This is a process that normally takes weeks or months of listening/reading repetitions before it translates into speaking ability.
Ion, on the other hand, was doing it in a week!
Being the kind and generous chap that he is, Ion was happy to share his secret with me.
It turns out he was using the app DuoCards.
Since he introduced it to me, I've been using the free version to learn Chinese vocabulary, and I have to say it's helping me change my mind about flashcards after overdosing on them in the past.
The thing I like most about this app is that it's super quick, super simple to create new flashcards.
If you try it, or any other flashcard app, tell us about your experience in this post.
