Vocabulary guide
π€ Build the vocabulary to understand more at speed
Strengthen word knowledge so demanding passages become easier to follow. Develop the vocabulary that supports clear comprehension and efficient reading.
π§± Why vocabulary slows reading
When words feel unfamiliar, your eyes pause and comprehension drops. Building precision
and recall reduces those pauses and helps you read with confidence.
π© Common signals
- You reread sentences to decode unknown terms.
- You rely on context but still feel unsure.
- You slow down in technical or academic passages.
