Learning Guides
Evidence-based guides on how to learn vocabulary, reach fluency, and use spaced repetition effectively.
Knowing which words to learn is half the battle. Knowing how to learn them is the other half. Our learning guides unpack the research behind spaced repetition, the realistic word counts that separate beginners from fluent speakers, and the practical routines that make vocabulary stick. You'll find concrete tips on building a daily habit, honest answers to questions like 'how many words do I actually need?', and a plain-English explanation of why spaced repetition works — and how to avoid the common traps that make it feel like a chore. Whether you're starting your first language or trying to fix a plateaued routine, these guides will help you spend less time memorizing and more time actually using the words you know.
