You must learn not a big number of words, but you must learn the whole sentences with new words.

Just use it in your daily life ,I am a beginer too ,Progress together~ ~

Hi there! I think that the best way to keep your brain from forgetting all the new words and rules you learn is by watching a lot of movies (without subtitles or dubbed) and writing a diary. That's how I do it and it works for me. I think that especially writing a diary is a very efficient method. Why don't you give it a try? Good luck!

aha.i suggest u collecting all the words and grammars u learn everyday,and try to write a composition or give a topic with the things that u learn.try to use all of them.the words phrases and patterns...that's the method that my teacher taught me at school.everyday we have a topic or have a short discussion about something we like.and use all the things we learn,,it is quite useful^^hope can help u.
