This presentation addresses common challenges in expanding English vocabulary and presents effective solutions. Many learners struggle with limited word acquisition and retention, which hampers effective communication. One issue is the passive learning of vocabulary through reading without active engagement. To help learners convert passive vocabulary into active vocabulary, learners should keep a vocabulary journal to document new words, along with their meanings and context. Another challenge is the lack of practical application; learners often do not use new vocabulary in conversation. Participating in language exchange groups or discussion forums can provide opportunities to practice these words actively. Furthermore, relying solely on traditional methods can stifle creativity. Incorporating fun techniques, such as word games and multimedia resources, can enhance learning experiences. Lastly, setting achievable goals, like learning a "word of the day," promotes consistent growth. By identifying these problems and implementing targeted solutions, learners can significantly improve their English vocabulary and overall communication skills.
