Why to Learn New Words And How to Do It Effectively
Learning English and any other new language could be a challenging task, but it is not impossible. There have been so many success stories. Each of these success stories is satisfying and unique. Stories filled with dedication and commitment from both students and tutors.
Words are the building blocks of any language
The more words you know, the higher you can build. However, just knowing the words is not enough, it is of great importance to know how to use these words in sentences and how to use them in our daily life events.
Knowing 5-10 words each day and how to use them effectively is of greater value than knowing 50 words in a day and being ignorant of how to use them in sentences. Applying newly learned words to our daily life activities gives us a deeper understanding of them.
Learning new words should be fun and comfortable
One must learn them according to their level of English and their capacity. If a student studies an average of 3 new words each day for a week, he is guaranteed about 21 words a week and 84 words a month. As a beginner these are quite impressive numbers for a dedicated student.
