It is essential to equip students to continue vocabulary development on their own. Word learning strategies are the planned approaches that a word learner takes as an agent of his or her own word learning.

Memory aids

Defining words

To illuminate the meaning of a new word, everyday language should be used and focus on the basic meaning first. A sample sentence almost always helps as it's less abstract than a definition. When students ask for the meaning of a word, ask for context, always (ex: where did you see that word?)Other ways to clarify definitions include:

Realia

Antonyms

Negative examples

Situational Context
