1

Start with the first 20-30 high-frequency words and listen to the audio.

2

Use the full table to filter by level, topic and part of speech.

3

Open cards for spaced repetition instead of reading the list once.

4

Move to the next level list when the current words feel familiar.

How to learn words from this list
