1
Single out a time slot in your daily schedule during which you will engage yourself in memorizing words. Try to memorize vocabulary words in the morning, as the brain processes information faster in the early hours of the morning.

Cut out rectangular shaped cards from a cardboard and fill them with dictionary words. On one side, write the word you want to learn, and write its translation on the other side. For greater clarity, draw an image of the object on the card. This will definitely increase the efficiency, and help you learn the vocabulary words faster.

Get yourself a helper, a close relative with whom you live or who lives nearby. Ask them to name words that are written on the cards and try to translate them in front of him/her. This method is more suitable for those who are more receptive to information through the ear.
