Description

Do you want to learn new words in English? Are you a student preparing for competitive exams in English? Or do you want to improve your speaking and comprehension skills so that you can perform better in your school or career?

If your answer is YES, then there is a shortcut. Studying the root words in English is the best and easiest way to build your vocabulary. Word roots are the building blocks that are used to construct a word. When you can recognize and remember a few root words you can even guess the meanings of the words with the same roots. It also opens a way to find out why words are spelled in a particular way. Without doubt, this will broaden your comprehension and perspective.

In this course we will show you how by learning about just ten root words you can add about a hundred words to your word stock. The pictures given in the slides will help you to imprint the meanings in your mind . The worksheets and the exercises at the end of each portion will aid you in mastering the words. Here we open a door to the arena of better understanding and greater perception of the world.

  • All who want to improve their English vocabulary and comprehension.
  • Students who want a better score in competitive exams like SAT, GRE etc
