“To have another language is to possess a second soul.” Voltaire’s quote is undeniably true, especially in today’s globalized world where English – the international language – serves as a versatile key unlocking countless opportunities. And to wield this key proficiently, building a rich vocabulary of English skills is a prerequisite.
Did you know that many English learners, despite years of study and solid grammar, still stumble and hesitate like “a cat in a fit” when communicating? The primary reason lies in a poor vocabulary with limited practical application. Like building a house, if grammar is the foundation, then vocabulary is the sturdy bricks. A lack of vocabulary makes it difficult to express ideas and convey messages fluently and confidently.

So, how can you “pocket” a massive and effective English vocabulary skillset? Below are some “secrets” I’ve compiled from years of teaching experience:
Learn Vocabulary by Topic
Instead of learning randomly, focus on topics relevant to your life and work. For example, if you’re a tour guide, cultivate English vocabulary learning skills related to tourism, culture, history, and geography. This helps you easily remember and apply vocabulary in real-world situations.
Apply the Law of “Repetition is the Mother of Memory”
Don’t just learn once and forget. Review vocabulary regularly through diverse methods such as flashcards, games, sentence writing, and speaking practice.

Create a Real-World Learning Environment
Actively create opportunities to use English in your daily life. Join English clubs, communicate with native speakers, watch movies, listen to music, and read English newspapers and books. You can also learn more about what skills tour guides need to enhance your proficiency.
Use Smart Dictionaries
Dictionaries are not just tools for looking up meanings but also “treasure troves” of vocabulary knowledge. Take advantage of online dictionary features to learn pronunciation, grammar, and word usage.
Perseverance – The Key to All Success
Vocabulary learning is a long process requiring perseverance and patience. Don’t be discouraged if you don’t see results immediately. The important thing is to maintain a daily learning habit, bit by bit, “constant dripping wears away the stone.”
According to Dr. Nguyen Van A (lecturer at Hanoi University of Languages and International Studies), “mastering English vocabulary skills not only helps you communicate confidently but is also a competitive advantage in work and life.”
Remember, success is not a destination but a journey. And your journey to conquer English vocabulary skills starts today.
