You cannot even imagine how the results can differ depending the methods of studying. If you want to improve your English, then start now! You just need to push up the words you know and push down the words you don't know.

The only way to improve memory is repetition.

German psychologist, Ebbinghaus continued his experiments on memory for about 16 years. As result, humans forget half of memory (50%) after 1 hour, 70% after a day and 80% after a month.

It's a surprising fact that 50% of the memory is gone within an hour, but it's also surprising to know that 20% remains even after a month.

In studying, building up these 20% up to 100% will provide the way to the top. Repeating continuously without giving up is the key to the success when studying English.


Then why UP DOWN study?
