What is spaced repetition? It means reviewing a word again and again, with longer and longer gaps, just before you forget it. It works better than cramming (studying a lot in one night) because each review makes the memory last longer.

⚠️ Mistakes to avoid
💡 IELTS tip: Use spaced repetition for collocations (make a decision), word families (educate, education, educational) and topic words for Writing and Speaking. Ten focused minutes every day is better than two hours once a week. Use each new word in a sentence you write or say, so it moves into your active vocabulary.
