what was the last new word or phrase you

learned do you remember

if you can answer this question then

you’re using a very important skill for

language learning

it’s called active recall keep watching

to learn more about how powerful it is

in this video we’ll cover the best ways

to study and remember

so what is active recall active recall

is an important part of learning and

actually remembering what you’ve learned

essentially it means forcing yourself to

remember what you’ve learned

for example let’s say you’re reading a

textbook and you learn a new word like

hello

reading is a passive activity that word

or phrase won’t last very long

in your memory but then if you ask

yourself later okay

what was that word again you’re using

active recall

it’s when you try to remember something

without looking at the answer

so what’s special about this typically

when we study for tests we read and

re-read textbooks

take notes highlight some key points and

re-read some more

but with this style of studying you’re

still looking at the answers and simply

reviewing them right

it’s essential that you also study by

forcing yourself to remember

doing this helps improve your memory so

how do we apply this to language

learning

what are some tricks that you can use to

actually remember what you study

first try using quick recall

let’s start simple tell us in the

comments what was the last word or

phrase you learned in your target

language

second quiz yourself right after

studying

after you finish a lesson ask yourself

what did i learn in this lesson

go ahead and write down as much as you

can remember you can also ask yourself

what grammar rule did i learn here or

what was the conversation

and try and recall the dialogue do this

for every lesson

but don’t look at the answers the point

is to recall as much as you can

third take notes from memory again

don’t look at the answers there’s a note

feature in each of our lessons to help

you do just that

fourth take lesson quizzes

you’ll find these in each of our lessons

actually taking tests or quizzes is a

great way to practice active recall

since you’re forced to remember just the

answers

fifth use spaced repetition flash cards

to master words and phrases

spaced repetition flash cards quiz you

on words and you have to mark whether

you know them or you don’t

if you know the word you’ll see it again

in a few days and if you don’t know a

word you can flip the card and get the

answer

but you’ll get quizzed on it again and

again until you get it right

six do assignments if you’re a premium

plus user you get weekly assignments

from your teacher

and these test you on listening reading

speaking and writing

these are all ways to use active recall
