These videos + our free cards for the program ANKI (free) teach you how to speed up and not to forget.
TASK : Listen and repeat in pauses.
The words and phrases are also presented in our free cards for ANKI, a free program that uses the 'spaced repetition' method. This method is based on the suggestion that there exists the ideal moment for repetition: if you learn before that moment, you waste your time and remember nothing; if you miss that moment, you forget what you've learnt and start from the very beginning. That's how you begin going round in a circle ...
The program ANKI calculates this ideal moment and tells you when to repeat. So if you follow the instructions of the program, the learnt information will be kept in long-term memory and words and phrases will always be at your service.
Please help us make this video more useful: translate the words and phrases of this video into your native language and send the translation to
newgenius38@yandex.ru
Then we'll add subtitles in your language and also make ANKI cards including translation into your native language.
Thank you in advance!
HOW TO WORK WITH VIDEOS AND CARDS:
1. Start with this video - 'listen and repeat in pauses'. While watching this video practise pronunciation.
2. Then start learning the cards with the program ANKI. During the first stage of learning study the cards thoroughly trying to memorise them; during the second stage just look through only the cards that the program offers you on a particular day spending not more than 10-15 minutes at a time.
SOME TIPS FOR TEACHERS: thanks to its interactivity our video is suitable teaching material for a group of students. You can use very big monitors - the texts in the video are not destorted on screens of any sizes. Studying ANKI cards for this video is what students can do by themselves.
