300

300 Common Words teaches expressions by getting you to write words several times.  This helps translate vocabulary from the short- to the long-term memory.

 

Fill out the crosswords when you have some quiet minutes. It is better to do just one puzzle carefully than many without paying attention.

Rest

Once you have completed the first five crosswords save the page, change activities and stop for a while.

Relax

If you find a crossword particularly hard it is better to turn the computer off and leave it till tomorrow. If it's still too difficult, start from the beginning again.

Listen

Some puzzles allow you to listen to the vocabulary. If you have speakers try and do this as much as possible so you get used to the way words sound.

Print

You can print the crosswords by clicking on the "Click here to print puzzle" link at the bottom of each page.

Slow!

Ideally, the course should be finished along several weeks so don't try to do everything in a hurry. Remember that faster is not always better.
