Whatever your current level, from basic to advanced, reading these texts or PDFs today will help you effectively strengthen your language skills.
How to effectively master vocabulary
The most effective way to master vocabulary is to use it often enough to remember it long term. However, this is not always possible, especially at advanced levels. You may be learning words that you wouldn’t use casually in conversation. That’s where interval repetition comes in handy.
As you progress from review to review, the time interval between reviews increases until you can recall the word effortlessly even after long breaks.
For example, you practice the word now, then an hour, then 1 day, 2 days, 4 days, etc. until it is in your long-term memory. The interval increases only when you are able to recall the word correctly.
Another important strategy is not to learn vocabulary in isolation. Always learn new words in their context (eg in sentences). This will help your brain learn how to use it.
