What’s the best way to learn German words?
Read a dictionary? Memorize a list… which you’ll forget later? Or, how about…
Have someone do the work for you — quiz you on words, so you never forget them?
Well, you can do just that with… Spaced Repetition Flashcards at GermanPod101. Here, you’ll discover how to learn new German words easily… with this proven study tool.
First, here’s a quick story…
Back in 1885, a German psychologist, Hermann Ebbinghaus, figured out just how quickly we forget new information. You forget about 75% of what you learned after a day or two. Don’t worry; he had a solution. You need to review right before you forget… and do so over “spaced” periods of time. In 2 days. Then in 4 days. And so on. So that the information goes into your long-term memory.
And so, “Spaced Repetition” learning was born.
The only problem? You’re busy. You won’t remember to review… 2 or 4 days later. So, that’s where Spaced Repetition Flashcards come in…
They’re like a persistent teacher that reminds and quizzes you at the right time.
And, you get these Flashcards here at GermanPod101. Just visit the website — on your computer or smartphone — and find “Flashcards” in the Vocabulary drop-down menu. Now, here’s how they help you master words…
Start a study session. You’ll see a word. Click on “Show answer.” Then, mark whether you know it or not. Move on to the next word. And this is where your “persistent teacher” goes to work…
If you don’t know a word, you’ll see it more often.
If you know it, you’ll see the word again in 2 days. Then 4 days. And so on.
Your Flashcards track your progress. Based on your progress, they sort your words and quiz you accordingly. Hard words now. Easy words in 2 days.
And just as you’re about to forget a word… Surprise! There is that word again. The Flashcards remind you and quiz you just before you forget. The result is, you never forget what you learn.
