The truth is, that to successfully learn new vocabulary, you need to create good study habits, keep it interesting and make sure that you are having fun!

Building your English vocabulary is something that you should be doing, every day... So, you need to find fun and interesting ways to do it!

In this video, I’m going to talk about a number of different tools and techniques that you can use to improve your vocabulary - you might not like all of them, but you will definitely enjoy some of them! And hopefully, you can make them part of your daily or weekly routine.

AND if you’ve got your own suggestions about ways to learn vocabulary, make sure you add them in the comments!! Share the love!

10 TIPS FOR LEARNING NEW VOCABULARY!

1. Get better at studying new words!

2. When you do learn new words, don’t learn words on their own!

3. Learn new vocabulary through stories.
Stories are FULL of new words, phrases and interesting expressions that show you how words come together in an interesting, fun and engaging way! You’re not only learning what words to use but how to use them!

For pre-intermediate/intermediate learners, I recommend:
- Diary of a Wimpy Kid by Jeff Kinney
- Flat Stanley by Jeff Brown
- Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher
- Charlotte’s Web by E.B.White

For upper-intermediate/advanced learners:
- James and The Giant Peach by Roald Dahl
- The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe by C.S. Lewis
- To Kill A Mockingbird by Harper Lee
- Animal Farm by George Orwell

4. Listen while you read.
You can find the AUDIO books for almost any book you can imagine. Which is great, because HEARING how English words are pronounced is so important

5. Learn new vocabulary through songs.
(If you know some good songs to practice with, post your suggestions in the comments below and share your love of English music!)
Here’s a couple on the mmmEnglish website:

6. Get Better At Using Online dictionaries!

7. Use labels & flashcards

8. Describe the world around you.

9. Imitate a native speaker.
Imitating a native English speaker will help you:
- learn new vocabulary and expressions, in context
- improve your English pronunciation
- sound more natural, like a native English speaker
- feel more confident in conversations with native speakers

I'm an Italian boy of seventeen and I really care about learning English. But many times, like you said, it becomes boring to use only a vocabolary or just learn by the scholastic lessons. So I really enjoy your videos first because you're a great speaker and also because the way you edit and organise your lessons. You're helping me a lot and I swear that to watch TV series in a different language or to listen you talking helped me much more than english lessons that I must to listen at school. Thank you.

Emma I give you a ten for this tutorial and for these 10 suggestions that you make us. One suggestion I add is: listen to you, watch the subtitles, try to understand you, see you from time to time, pause the video and take note of unknown words, finally accept your recommendations and put them into practice. I send greetings to you, you are wonderful!

A non native English speaker here, though perhaps living and speaking it
older than your age. You are a gorgeous looking and exciting teacher.
I learn much from you, keep it up. Then if ever in California (SF Bay Area),
look me up.

[agnaoulahoucine]

I am a Moroccan public high school teacher of english for a bit more than 30 years now. I find the way you are presenting uour lessons and the techniques beying ised very inviting and great. I appreciate your good job as a teacher because every single whatever you say make me so excited and motivated to learn more and more. It’s true i understand everything you utter because both pf us are trachers and we share plenty of things in common: the eveyday teaching vocab, the different pedagogical methods we use and the comprehensible input we share…The thing is how can we attract our learners’ attention so they could be all eyes and ears. I think i sound a bit philosophical but …. Looking forward to hearing from you
