How can I learn difficult vocabulary?

Introduction

Welcome to my Youtube Chanel! My name is Éléonore Jacques.

We all want to succeed at school, right? Of course, we do. But there are so many obstacles to overcome.

I’m in my last semester at Ahuntsic College. My field of study is Social Sciences. I’ve been in the international studies program for about 2 years now. In this program we study economy, history, anthropology, politics, law, and more. For me, I’m interested more in my Law classes because I’m going to UQAM next years in law. So, I am really motivated to improve my vocabulary.

In one mouth I was able to learn 20 words associated in my study field.

My goal is to learn 20 words each month to prepare myself for university next year.

Get ready to follow my step by step tutorial on how I was able to learn 20 new words associated with my study field.

You'll be amazed by what is coming next.

The Problem

In this field we use a lot of specifics words that we are not used to say in a day-to-day conversation. So, we need to familiarize with many words to be able to communicate and understand all the technical terms that we are using in our class and will be using in our future careers.

So, with many words and terms to know in my future career witch is a lawyer, I need to know a lot of specifics' terms in French and in English. In Montreal, we learn to be a lawyer only in French, but the reality is that I will have client that only speaks English. So, I need to learn English terms by myself.
