Linguistically there are two techniques for improving your lexical strength (vocabulary) :
Active learning and Passive learning
1. Passive learning: New words are acquired subconsciously, while doing some daily life stuff, like reading a newspaper.
Vocabulary is an abstract skill due to reasons like reading habits, family background, schooling, culture etc. The conventional methods are very generic and are made of masses. They do not allow personalised learning to an individual’s current vocabulary.
2. Active learning: Active learning methodology has become a preferred way to change the traditional teacher oriented classroom into the newer student oriented approach to learning. In active learning, acquisition of new words is done with conscious and great efforts.
Usually active vocabulary building is quite rigorous and boring due to its monotonous nature.
