So having a large vocabulary lays a solid foundation for learning English. Here comes a most important question as to how to enlarge our vocabulary. In this class, we’re going to explore some effective ways of learning new vocabulary.

All words are not created equal. Some words are to be tasted, others to be swallowed, and some few to be chewed and digested. So we’ll put our emphasis on words that need to be chewed and digested.

Step 1: let’s take a brief look at our target words.

with the intention of

avoiding my previous mistakes. Step 3:: Have you ever felt stressed out?

Eventually, he was reduced to using a wheelchair by the time he was 30 and dependent on a computerised voice system for
