WHAT ARE YOUR LEARNING HABITS?

MAKING VOCABULARY LEARNING FAST AND FUN - MEMRISE

MAKING VOCABULARY LEARNING FAST AND FUN - MEMRISE

  • Repetition is the key:

DOS AND DON’TS OF RECORDING VOCABULARY EFFECTIVELY

  • Write an example sentence
  • Combine translation with definition/examples/synonyms
  • Write words that are important/relevant for YOU
  • Use a good dictionary
  • Write two/three word phrases, e.g. carry out a study on
  • Write the words that come before and after the new word
  • Personalise the examples
  • Organise your vocabulary by topics
  • Use mems
  • DOs
  • DON’Ts

PRACTISE

  • Read the text below. Identify minimum 3 new chunks/phrases and write them down in your notebook using the tips from the previous slide:
  • Mistakes are great! Without them, you will stay in your comfort language zone forever. We adults tend to be incredibly worried about being 100% right all the time. Forget about it. Especially at the beginning. Play with the language. Experiment. And slip up. That’s fine. Nobody’s going to laugh, get annoyed or poke fun at you. Believe me. Native speakers will be delighted that you’re trying to learn their language (especially if the language is as obscure as Polish, for instance). Focus on getting the meaning across first. But, get somebody to correct you once you feel comfortable with it. And DO pay attention to the correct version. Otherwise you might be forever repeating the basic mistakes.

SOME EXAMPLES

  • Stay in your comfort zone – ex. My dad hates taking risks. He always stays in his comfort zone.
  • Slip up – make a mistake, informal,
  • ex. I often slip up ON spelling.
  • Be delighted that – very happy, ex. I’m delighted (that) you’re all here.
  • Focus on – concentrate on, ex. I found it difficult to focus on work yesterday.
  • Get the meaning across – be understood, ex. I make mistakes when I speak French, but I find it easy to get the meaning across

YOUR TASK FOR FRIDAY

  • Log in to Memrise at www.memrise.com
  • Find a new course and learn 5 new words
  • Download the app and practise on your phone
  • Read one of the articles and watch one of the videos from the next slide. Write down at least 3 interesting things you’d like to tell your class about next time.
