VOCABULARY LEARNING STRATEGIES

2021-01-26 20:22:14 UTC

I leave you a list of 5 different strategies that you can use to help you learn and remember vocabulary.
1. Use images like flashcards to help you learn and remember words.
2. Create a wordlist on your phone as you can use it whenever you need them.
3. Say the words out loud. You will get used to the pronunciation and stress of the word.
4. Record yourself and you will increase confidence.
5. Practice writing sentences using the new vocabulary that you are studying. By doing this, you not only practice the spelling and meaning of these new words, but also how to use them.

REFRESHING NEW VOCABULARY

2021-02-05 16:25:21 UTC

My name is Begoña and for me it's really complicated to memorize vocabulary related to specific fields such as technology, medicine... That's the reason why I always carry a small vocabulary notebook in my bag. When I have some free time, I revise it in order to refresh what I have learnt.

I found this podcast several years ago when I was preparing to pass the C1 exam.

From my point of view it is great to build up your vocabulary and sound more natural, while improving your listening skills.

Ana Maria Gayol González

2023-02-09 16:29:07 UTC

I believe that this is one of the best books that you may read if you are interested in increasing your vocabulary and typical English expresions and having fun at the same time. The stories included in this book are short and amazingly thrilling. Never had I read such a masterpiece. The combination of Arthur Conan Doyle and his main character, Sherlock Holmes, never disappoints.

Wordle Game

2023-03-05 15:23:44 UTC

A game with a different word everyday to guess. It can be anything so you learn vocabulary from different fields. The hidden word always has 5 letters and you have to guess it in 6 tries. When you put a right letter in the right place the square of the letter turns green. If you have the right letter but the wrong place it turns yellow and if it's none of that options it turns grey. You can also practice higher levels setting words of more letters. It's a nice way to start the day and refresh your English having some fun!

Thesaurus.com

Ana_Seijas — 2023-03-23 14:29:20 UTC

A thesaurus is a valuable tool for writers, students, and anyone looking to improve their vocabulary. It can provide synonyms and antonyms for words, helping to vary sentence structure and enhance the precision and clarity of written communication. A thesaurus can also aid in avoiding repetition and enriching one's language skills, ultimately leading to better writing and communication abilities.

Learn English with Adele, uploaded by Lucía C.F.

2025-01-29 18:55:11 UTC

If you like music and accents, you can watch Adele's Carpool Karaoke with James Corden and analyze whether she has a Cockney accent or Received Pronunciation.

It is fun to realize that sometimes, she has a very distinctive Cockney accent, while at other times, she speaks with RP.

Enjoy!!

An app to promote creative writing

2025-01-30 18:33:39 UTC

Hi!!! My name is María. I love using education tools such as that of the picture. You can write many different types of texts, from article items to comics. This app is also a great tool to write collaborative works (narrative, poetry or drama). I dicovered it by means of a Turkish teacher and I've included it as part of my class tools. Students have fun and also boost their creativity and their writing skills!

STORY BOARD THAT

mcastellanovilalonga — 2025-01-30 18:46:35 UTC

Hiii!!!

I'd like to share this educational app with you. It's really easy to use. You can write stories adding multiple settings, situations and characters.

Students can enhance their writing and have a good time creating their characters and then adding the bubbles and the text.

Once they are done, I recommend you to print them out and post them around the class. They feel proud and they also read their classmates' creations.

PLOTAGON (ANIMATED VIDEO APP)

mcastellanovilalonga — 2025-01-30 19:04:11 UTC

Hiii! Plotagon is a really useful educational tool. You can make animated films. You can record the dialogues using your own voice and also introduce the text and the app reads it out loud. Actually, this app is excellent for many skills: reading, listening, writing and speaking.

It is amazing how students create short films that blow your mind. Besides they set high standars to excel in both, pronunciation and writing. I have added an example made by my students. In this case, the dialogues are performed by the app. As we are taking part in the project QUÉROTE +, they were asked to create examples of toxic love realtionships. I hope you enjoy it!
