Building vocabulary works best when it’s active, not just memorizing lists. A simple, effective strategy is to combine daily exposure, usage, and review.
Start by collecting new words from what you read or hear—articles, lectures, or conversations in your field like agriculture and food technology. Don’t just note the word; write its meaning, pronunciation, and one example sentence.
Next, use the words. Try to include 3–5 new words each day in your own sentences, especially related to your subject. For example, when teaching, you might deliberately use terms like “diversify,” “sustainable,” or “interim” in explanations.
Review regularly. Go back to your word list every few days and test yourself. Flashcards (paper or apps) help a lot because they use repetition.
Also, learn words in context instead of isolation. Understanding how a word fits into a sentence makes it easier to remember and use correctly.
Finally, practice speaking and writing. Even short daily paragraphs or discussions will strengthen your vocabulary naturally over time
