877. How to Learn Vocabulary | A Conversation with Clare Whitmell

This conversation is a preview of my Zoom workshop on Thurs 18 April 2024 at 10AM (UK time), as part of the Advanced English Summit. In my workshop I will be talking about how to really learn vocabulary, and not just stare at word lists. This is a conversation about the subject of the workshop, and summit organiser Clare Whitmell asks me questions about why vocabulary is important, why I love teaching it, common mistakes made by learners, ways of learning vocabulary more effectively, and some tools you can use. 👉 Sign up for the Advanced English Summit here - - - - - 👉 Episode page on 00:00 Introduction 03:41 Why is vocabulary important? 07:10 Why do you enjoy teaching vocabulary? 09:43 Words have their own spirit 11:14 What mistakes do people make when they learn vocabulary? 20:20 What else can people do to expand their vocabulary?
