How to learn vocab

Make your own word list in StudyGo

Make personalised lists: do not put words in that you already know!

Keep making new lists: words that you know should be removed from newer lists.

Make your own sentences that have the word in it.

Take a break: learning for hours and hours is ineffective->practice in 20 minute intervals.
