*Lưu ý:
A. Về cách học từ và cấu trúc: khuyến khích các bước sau để học từ và cấu trúc hiệu quả hơn:
1. Tự làm bài tập trước một lượt bằng hết khả năng của bản thân.
2. Tự làm lại bài tập ngày đó bằng việc sử dụng thêm các tiện ích hỗ trợ (bảng từ/từ điển…)
3. Xem video và pdf sửa bài của Mrs.Trang Anh (lưu ý những câu làm sai và tìm nguyên nhân)
 Ở bước 2 và 3, take notes hoặc highlight những phần kiến thức mới đối với bản thân vào một
cuốn sổ - ôn lại dễ.
4. Sắp xếp thời gian ôn lại từ và cấu trúc đã học (có thể vận dụng phương pháp spaced repetition)
=> Tùy thuộc bản thân để tìm ra phương pháp dễ nhớ nhất cho mình.
- Test trí thông minh chuẩn châu Âu  xem các em có xu hướng gì để tìm phương pháp dễ hơn nhé!
(Đồng thời biết thêm nhiều từ hay)
 Link: https://personalitymax.com/
B. Về bảng từ và cấu trúc:
- Tra từ vựng (Phần I. Vocabulary) theo ABC

- Phần II. Structure sẽ bao gồm các cấu trúc câu, cụm động từ, các cụm từ khác… không xuất hiện
