Today, I tried the dictionary strategy to build my vocabulary. Whenever I found a word I did not understand, I looked it up in a learner's dictionary to find its exact meaning and correct pronunciation.
This strategy worked well for me because it gave me a deep understanding of how to use the words correctly in different contexts. I learned new words like "essential," "frequent," and "analyze." Checking the dictionary helped me feel more confident about my writing. I will continue using this strategy whenever I read academic texts.
