4. Begin every chapter at the END of the chapter (on your vocabulary pages).
Go through the vocabulary words to get familiar with them. This will help you
understand the reading content later.

5. Make flashcards. MAKE THEM. In your own handwriting, on your own paper
of choice. Spending time to write them out will help you to remember the words
faster.

6. Skim the chapter first to get an idea of what it’s about. This will help you
gauge the level of difficulty and prioritize your time before you begin.

7. As you do your activities, watch ALL the iLrn GRAMMAR VIDEOS AND
MOVIES IN THEIR ENTIRETY. Use them to kick-start the accompanying
exercises. It may seem time consuming, but it’s more time consuming to try to
do the activities with no grammar base. 

8. As you do your exercises, TAKE NOTES in your own handwriting on paper.


Studies show that typing on a keyboard does not have the same effect on
memory as does the act of handwriting.

9. Keep a chronological notebook of YOUR NOTES in YOUR OWN WORDS.


Use it to study.

10. Try to stay a few exercises ahead. When you complete one day’s exercises,
go ahead to the next day and do 4-5 exercises. This will make your due dates
seem a little shorter. (If you can stay an entire day or two ahead, that’d be even
better because if something unexpected comes up, your activities will be done =
no stress.  )

11. When you have trouble remembering a certain word or phrase, try this: grab a
sheet of paper and write it in Spanish over and over again while thinking
about the English word that it means. You don’t have to be neat and use
the lines of the paper – just scribble everywhere until you fill one side of it. Use
the other side for the next word/phrase.

12. Another way to help you remember words: make post-it notes and stick
them in places you pass several times a day so you see them repeatedly
(even if it’s subconsciously).

13. Do ALL of the self-tests for each chapter. Print out your results and review
ALL the recommended material. Then make notes in your HANDWRITING.

14. Take advantage of the PRACTICE TABon your main home page in iLrn.
Complete all of the corresponding activities at the end of each chapter.

15. Make good use of your partner group and BE a good partner! Really
participate when you meet. Put in the effort to converse, even if it feels like
“kindergarten-level Spanish.” It’s okay! We all start somewhere. 

16. Try to meet on a weekly basis for study and peer support. The groups
who do so report greater progress and less stress.

I’m here for you! I’m just a click away, so send me a message in FB Chat.
