Print TOEFL Vocabulary Cards and Flashcards
1. Overview
Every TOEFL test taker has to prepare vocabulary before test day. Study and review English words take much time for EFL (English as a Foreign Language) people. Some people used to study English words by flashcards since their first English class in elementary school. A familiar tool, flashcards, may make things easier for them to improve productivity in building TOEFL vocabulary.
If you plan to use flashcards to prepare TOEFL words, the first step is to look for a set of flashcards that matches your current vocabulary level and test goal. It seems simple, but actually, it is not easy. At either Internet or book stores, you may get some flashcard sets; however, you can hardly have one to meet with your circumstance exactly. As a matter of fact, only a few lucky people can find out a flashcard set that is with 70 percent words useful.
Prepare TOEFL vocabulary is a personalized job. An existing flashcard set hardly reflects your requirement. Too easy flashcards will waste your time because of lots of known words. On the other hand, too hard flashcards will drop your efficiency because you possibly miss some higher frequency words. So we recommend you create your flashcards to prepare TOEFL test.
We implement two types of flashcard for all TOEFL vocabularies in this web site: one-sided and double-sided.
On every group's word-list page, you can see two buttons: Card and Flashcard. They respectively launch a one-sided card sheet and double-sided flashcard sheet.
Let's take TOEFL Words with Synonyms as an example to show how to print TOEFL flashcards. TOEFL Words with Synonyms has four groups; we take the first group as an example.
We have 4 TOEFL vocabularies; anyone of them can be used to make cards or flashcards. We suggest choosing the 5000/6000 TOEFL Vocabulary List to work because a large list usually covers small ones, and you don't need to resolve overlay among multiple word lists.
5000 TOEFL Vocabulary List is an excellent candidate to print cards. Its all words are categorized into 4 levels and 16 groups. We show links of one-sided cards of the first two groups.
Below are quick accesses to print one-sided cards and double-sided flashcards of all 4 TOEFL vocabularies on the website by the group. (If you don't sign on as a VIP account, only the first group has full words, the others just show a few words as samples.)
Considering that EFL (English as Second Language) students usually learn English through their native language, here all TOEFL vocabularies offer definitions of 9 non-English languages. When print personalized cards, you may include non-English definitions together only if your mother language is available.
The 6000 TOEFL Vocabulary List is an excellent list to show how to print TOEFL cards/flashcards with other languages.
