Hello everyone, and welcome to On Your Mark’s English! 👋
Today is Monday, Vocabulary Boost, and we’re learning a simple 3-step way to learn new words easily.
Let’s start with our word of the day: anxious.
💡 Step 1: See it in Context
Listen to this sentence:✅ He felt anxious before his big job interview. 😟
What do you think it means?
When you see a new word in a real sentence, it helps your brain guess the meaning naturally.
📘 Step 2: Learn the Definition
Anxious (adjective) means feeling worried or nervous about something.
Simple, right?
You can use it to describe yourself or someone else in situations that cause stress or worry.
✍️ Step 3: Make it Your Own
Now, use the word in your own sentence!
✅ I always feel anxious before I take an exam.
This final step is the most important!
When you create your own examples, you truly remember new vocabulary.
