For this reason, smart students should always be looking for opportunities to increase the amount of words they know and can use comfortably in their conversations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This time, we'll provide some suggestions for study methods that will help your students with this important task.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Word_maps\"><\/span><strong>Word maps<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"602\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.blog.engoo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/02033040\/shutterstock_1201279081-1024x602.jpg\" alt=\"A word map or word cloud with &quot;teamwork&quot; in the center\" class=\"wp-image-5430\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.blog.engoo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/02033040\/shutterstock_1201279081-1024x602.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/assets.blog.engoo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/02033040\/shutterstock_1201279081-300x176.jpg 300w, https:\/\/assets.blog.engoo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/02033040\/shutterstock_1201279081-768x452.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Word maps \u2014 sometimes called \"word clouds\" \u2014 are a visual way to represent a single word and all of the vocabulary and concepts related to it. Challenge your student to list a word's synonyms and antonyms, as well as other parts of speech. For example, does the target word also have a noun or adjective form?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This technique takes advantage of <a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/www.educationcorner.com\/dual-coding-theory\/\" target=\"_blank\">\"dual-coding theory,\"<\/a> which is the idea that receiving information in two forms rather than only one increases our ability to understand and remember it. In this case, we have information as text and in the graphical form of the \"map.\" Students may also appreciate seeing just how much vocabulary they know clearly presented in front of them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Themed_vocabulary_lists\"><\/span><strong>Themed vocabulary lists<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Similar to word maps, themed vocabulary lists are all about coming up with words related to a particular subject or idea. As an example, if the theme is health, a list may include words like \"diet,\" \"exercise,\" \"mindfulness\" or \"fasting.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is a great way to introduce new words to students. Building vocabulary this way also has the benefit of forming relationships between words that can aid students in memorization. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can start by working with them to create lists with themes related to their hobbies, but lists can be created for nearly any topic you can think of. Don't forget to take advantage of upcoming holidays or special events in your student's home country to add a bit of uniqueness to the exercise.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Crossword_puzzles_and_other_word_games\"><\/span><strong>Crossword puzzles and other word games<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.blog.engoo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/02033156\/shutterstock_170786780-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"An empty crossword puzzle with a red pencil\" class=\"wp-image-5431\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.blog.engoo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/02033156\/shutterstock_170786780-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/assets.blog.engoo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/02033156\/shutterstock_170786780-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/assets.blog.engoo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/02033156\/shutterstock_170786780-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/assets.blog.engoo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/02033156\/shutterstock_170786780-420x280.jpg 420w, https:\/\/assets.blog.engoo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/02033156\/shutterstock_170786780-840x560.jpg 840w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Crossword puzzles are timeless games everyone can enjoy. They are also convenient since you can find a <a href=\"http:\/\/eslcrosswords.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wide variety<\/a> of games aimed at different levels of English speakers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, there are other games, such as Boggle and Scrabble, which are classics themselves. They aren't exactly designed for boosting vocabulary, but they are a great way to test it. After all, they are all about recalling words from memory quickly, and playing against others adds a fun sense of pressure to the experience. It's certainly more engaging than simply studying alone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Replace_common_words\"><\/span><strong>Replace common words<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/assets.blog.engoo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/02033306\/annie-spratt-rmKkZqnVtk4-unsplash-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"A completely exhausted young man resting on a couch\" class=\"wp-image-5432\" srcset=\"https:\/\/assets.blog.engoo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/02033306\/annie-spratt-rmKkZqnVtk4-unsplash-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/assets.blog.engoo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/02033306\/annie-spratt-rmKkZqnVtk4-unsplash-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/assets.blog.engoo.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/7\/2023\/08\/02033306\/annie-spratt-rmKkZqnVtk4-unsplash-768x480.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>An excellent way for students to boost their vocabulary is by taking a break from \"very\" and adjectives that tend to get overused.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Instead, instruct them to try using more expressive alternatives. For example, they can replace \u201cvery\u201d with \u201ccompletely,\u201d \u201ctotally\u201d or \u201cincredibly.\u201d For adjectives, \u201chappy\u201d can become \"ecstatic,\" \"cold\" can become \"freezing,\" \"angry\" can become \"furious,\" and \"tired\" can become \"exhausted.\"<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can start simple and introduce higher-level words for your more advanced students. Challenge them to come up with as many synonyms like this that they can, then encourage them to use them in their stories and comments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Other_vocabulary-boosting_methods\"><\/span><strong>Other vocabulary-boosting methods<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>All of the suggestions we've listed above are in addition to things your student should already be doing: reading English books and articles, and taking notes on any new words they hear in conversations or through the media.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They should also take advantage of smartphones and apps to quickly look up words and expressions they don't understand. It has never been easier to build vocabulary than it is with today's modern tools \u2014 and that goes for both language students and native speakers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Wrap-up\"><\/span><strong>Wrap-up<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether your student is just starting out or is already at a very high level, there is always more vocabulary to learn.
