Why it's easy to recommend

  • Research-based.

    Spaced repetition, retrieval practice and the generation effect, with sources on our research page.

  • Starts early.

    Designed for 9th and 10th graders, the window where a few minutes a day adds up and pressure is low.

  • Levels the field.

    One-on-one tutoring isn’t available to every family. A daily five-minute habit is much more accessible.

  • Good for readers of all levels.

    Some research suggests students who struggle with reading may gain the most from targeted vocabulary work. See the research.

  • Zero class time.

    It happens at home, on the phone, before the scroll.

What students practice

  • The 300 words most likely to appear on the SAT
  • Words in Context-style questions, just like the test
  • Punctuation cues that signal a definition
  • Writing original sentences to prove mastery
