The Big Help

Hi everyone,

I want to make a little entry and talk about what is a great help for me in my English course.
A few weeks ago we had an English exam, I have to be honest it did not went well for me. Nevertheless, I learned a lot of vocabularies for the exam out of the AWL (academic word list). I went through the entire list and marked every word, which I could not make up a sentence with. Thus, I ended up with an endless list of vocabularies...  I had no other choice than starting right away, obviously I did not had a look on the list in time. This might be the reason, why I was not happy with my grade in the exam.

Usually I do look pretty much the same. So my advice, start learning in time.

Anyway, I was not going to talk about my exam at this stage. Way more important is that the AWL helped me a lot with understanding the books better, which we have to read in other courses.
Learning the AWL made it easier for me to understand what I read and it is not just going to help me here in my first semester, this list will help me in my future study program as well as in my future life. So, it is a good advice to go through the list and learn all vocabularies which you think you do not understand.

Here is the AWL:

Awl

Go through and find out how many words you do not understand, write them down and learn every day 10 of them, I promise you, you are going to understand everything you read a lot better in only 6 weeks.

So everybody, keep on going with learning. I hope I could give a good advice.
