What you'll learn

  • This course will help you learn to convey your intended meaning more precisely when you write and when you speak.

Description
In this course, you will find 40 most commonly used words in the English languages, and you will learn their replacement words, together with their specific definitions and the examples of how to use them. 

After each lesson, there are quizzes which test your knowledge about other alternatives to the common words in the preceding lesson, a more thorough list of alternatives or synonyms for the common word. Although this list may not include all synonyms, we’ve listed the most relevant alternatives.

There are also practice tests to make sure that you can use the replacement words in the right contexts. 

Because common words in the English language can be vague, or sometimes cause confusion in a sentence, this course will teach you how to choose specific alternatives to these common words, which helps you to more precisely convey your intended meaning.

Refine Your Vocabulary course is for middle-school and high school students who are learning English, for adults who need to use academic and formal English in their profession and for those wishing to improve their vocabulary to be more effective in what they say.

What Will I Learn?
  • You will be able to use 102 new adjectives.
  • You will be able to continue to learn more adjectives by yourself.
  • You will know the best game for learning English adjectives, which you can't find anywhere else.

Requirements
  • Students should have at least a lower intermediate level of English.
Description

Stop using the same old adjectives that don't impress anybody. If you want to get high scores on your next test or essay, your adjectives have to add flavor and color to what you say. If you want to stun your friends or your colleagues, you must start using better adjectives.

This is often what separates the English speakers who are considered to be 'fluent' from those who are not.

This course gives you more adjectives that will be impressive for native speakers to hear than any other course at the time of its creation. PLUS: You get to learn HOW to learn more adjectives! I don't just teach you these 102 wonderful adjectives - I also teach you mind-blowing techniques to learn MORE even after the course! How rare is that?! Very.

This course gives you all the context you need for each adjective, as well as the different ways you might use the adjectives, precise definitions, and plenty of examples.

If you want to pass the IELTS, or the TOEFL, write an essay in English, or even simply impress people in your next conversation - learning these adjectives could make all the difference!

Learn from an instructor who has many years of experience teaching English, years of experience managing a school, and who has won several awards for teaching English learners and managing an English school.

I'm here all the way as you learn these adjectives and can answer any questions you might have on your path. I can't wait to work with you!
