How many HR words should I learn a week?
Ten to twelve words a week is enough if each one arrives with its collocation and one written sentence. That pace covers this table in four weeks, with the fourth week kept for review.
Ten to twelve words a week is enough if each one arrives with its collocation and one written sentence. That pace covers this table in four weeks, with the fourth week kept for review. Fewer words with stronger recall beat a longer list that disappears after a week, and the gap fills give you a cheap weekly test of whether the recall held.
A four-week split that fits this table is posting and application words in week one, interview and offer words in week two, first-month and ongoing-employment words in week three, then leaving words plus a full review in week four. Review each new set on day one, day three and day seven, and if a week runs short, cut new words rather than the review, because the review is what keeps the earlier sets from fading.
