How to make your students memorize words they have to learn

@elana 10 January 2021 edited

The easiest way to explain my students some English phrases or words, is with short video clips I make for them. They really enjoy it so I follow their desires and always make some video clips that can make easier their learning. It is funny for me to record and for them to learn with understanding. My kids sometimes help me to record a small video clip for my pupils, so I find it interesting for them, in the same way they play and learn new things. Here is a short video I made for some of my online students a year ago and my daughters helped me. It is an explanation of a verb burst into,in real situation..you can **burst** into tears..or **burst** into laughter.. https://libre.video/videos/watch/b7379d13-6799-441c-b06a-9cd8287773fc Here is another example of my explanation of a verb **postpone**, it has a synonym in phrasal verb put off. So through real situation and example your student will better understand their meaning and also they will memorize it fast in their brain. There are examples of usuage of words proficiency, dictation and others. https://libre.video/videos/watch/f7b80f5a-5601-47c4-a60f-bbec0c0b23c7 If you are a teacher you can try this way of teaching in order to help understanding the topic you are talking about. Dorothy and Ellie helped me to record my next video. Following example shows us how to understand verb **take care of.** https://libre.video/videos/watch/83dedfec-28df-4fc0-b3c6-e3205ae0220e I hope you enjoyed my article and that you can learn something new.
