The Logophilia Vocabulary Masterclass will enable you to find the first step towards being the best student that you can be; enjoy what you study, rather that memorise; & never feel inferior as a student again.
Subjects are written in books, which are written in words. The study of words is called Vocabulary, which should be the most fundamentally important subject (tool) provided to all students, before they read any subject. There are 81 countries in the world that have English as an official or an unofficial language. There are no schools (that we know) that teach English Vocabulary & Terminology as the most important subject. This leads to students studying for the utilitarian purpose of exams-performance, resorting to the malpractice of rote-memorising.
There are many ways to teach Vocabulary. All, but one, lead to shallow-memory creation practices. In order to study Vocabulary in depth, students need to study word-formation. Word-formation deals with the methods of making & breaking words, which comes under the subject of Etymology - the study of the origins of words.
Logophilia has structured multiple experiential Etymology programmes to teach Vocabulary as the most fundamental subject that should be be taught before other subjects. Students of Logophilia are called Logophiles. Logophiles understand that the value of education is far beyond the shallow consequence of exam-writing. They read without fear, appreciate what they study, remember their learnings effortlessly, & make great choices about the subjects that they truly like, becuase they fear no subjects.
About Logophilia & the Logophilia Vocabulary Masterclass
Logophilia Education (estd. 2010 by Dhruv Raj Sharma) is the only Etymology Education organisation in the world. Since 2010, we have educated students from 57 countries online, & 60 schools and 21 universities through classroom programmes. The Logophilia Vocabulary Masterclass has been modelled on the Logophilia Logic of English Words Programme - which is the most-selling programme in Logophilia. The classroom version of the Logic of English Words Programme had had more than 100 runs, before inspiring the making of the Logophilia Vocabulary Masterclass. What you shall be studying is a highly refined, and much more elaborate, version of the Logic of English Words Programme.
Studying with Logophilia is an experience that comes with multiple takeaways! Some of the one's we like are mentioned below. Once you have completed the programme, do tell us which of these came about for you!
+ You will learn how to unlock 7400+ words.
+ You will learn terminology from at least 20 different subjects, making you an interdisciplinary learner.
+ You will learn how to spell better.
+ You will be able to pronounce better (for these, and related words).
+ Your recall will improve. So, no more, “Umm, what was that word?”.
+ You will be able to derive definitions by simply breaking up words. Your dependence on dictionaries and textbooks will decrease dramatically!
+ You will find coaching and preparatory classes to be redundant, & quite frankly, insulting.
In the Logophilia Vocabulary Masterclass, here’s what you should expect
+ You'll learn How to be a Super-Student.
+ You'll learn 7400+ English words.
+ This will make you enjoy what you read/study considerably more than regular students. (Please note, this is an introductory programme. The enjoyment of studies will manifest itself much more after you have studied more detailed Logophilia vocabulary programmes (e.g. the Logophilia Mastery Subscription).
+ You'll find it easy to understand how to derive definitions from words themselves. (For e.g. photosynthesis is mostly taught in books through a 2-paragraph definition. In reality, it is a 4-part word - photo + syn + the + sis - i.e. light + together + to place + process. A smart student will notice that a very practical definition is available in the word through finding the meaning of these parts, & would be able to appreciate the book-definition with much greater ease, and without the need for memorisation.)
+ You'll be able to appreciate seemingly difficult concepts with great ease.
+ You may start to discover that you don't need to memorise your studies as much as you did earlier. (This, too, is a pro-feature. Will happen much more after the Logophilia Mastery Subscription.)
+ You may even find yourself looking forward to exams, because you're great at studying!
The Logophilia Vocabulary Masterclass is designed to be a fully immersive experience. There are multiple components to this Programme. It’s not just watching video lessons that will make this Course come alive. Follow these Study Guidelines to get the full value that we have designed for you.
1. WATCH the videos
2. ASSESS your vocabulary progress
3. REFLECT on your growth: whenever you learn a new root, ask yourself
a. "What other words can I think of from this root?".
b. "Which subject do these words belong to?". For example, the root dyn (Greek, meaning “power”) will give you:
dynamic (Psychology),
dynasty (Political Science),
dynamite (Chemistry),
dyne (Physics),
dynamo (Mechanics),
aerodynamics (Engineering),
thermodynamics (branch of Physics),
and so forth.
Studying like this will help you make connections across the terms that you learn, and will add much-needed depth to your learning!
Dive into the world of Etymology and watch yourself become the best student you can be!
Love,
Logophilia
