Building your vocabulary can be one of the easiest, most fun parts of learning English. Each new word brings you new worlds and freedom in expression. Maybe you learned English a long time ago by studying and memorizing vocabulary lists for tests and exams and have bad memories from it. The best way to learn English vocabulary is much easier, and a lot more fun:
- Do what you like
- Look for materials that are based on your interests and passions.
- If you like yoga, look for yoga Youtube videos, yoga blogs & magazines. Why not take yoga classes in English if possible?
- The point is to study the English that interests and excites you. You will be much more likely to be motivated to learn, and you will have a higher chance of remembering it.
- Do it often
- Habits are good. Repetition is important.
- Find a way to make English part of your daily routine. Even if it is only 10 minutes per day that you spend reading a news story without studying the vocabulary. Even if you just watch a 10 minute video from your favourite English language Youtuber.
