Learning Language from Language

What we know now about studying and teaching vocabulary

Traditional vocabulary study often relies on memorization, but real language learning goes much deeper. Learning Language from Language explores how students can actively discover vocabulary through authentic texts, uncovering patterns of meaning, collocation, and grammar in a way that builds both confidence and competence.

This booklet, based on my widely praised webinar and teacher training sessions, presents some key insights into vocabulary acquisition, guided discovery, and task-based learning. It challenges outdated methods and offers a more engaging, systematic, and intelligent approach—one that respects learners' cognitive abilities and equips them to use language naturally and effectively.

You will find practical insights and links to valuable resources. It is a great read for teachers and language professionals looking to transform the way they teach vocabulary.
