Exam Candidates Remember Vocabulary For Speaking Prompts
Study high-frequency words in 15-minute recall sets.
The 60-Minute Prompt Vocabulary Sprint — stop collecting endless vocabulary lists that disappear under pressure. Build a smaller study set from likely prompt themes, then rehearse those words so they survive timing, pressure, and partial recall. Within 14 days, build a focused speaking vocabulary set of 120-180 words with recall sessions under 20 minutes.
What you get: Instant access to the full ebook PDF plus all templates, checklists, and review sheets.
The method inside:
Rank Topics, Not Word Lists — start with prompt themes examiners keep returning to. Cut everything that does not fit a likely prompt.
Group Words By Use, Not By Theme — organise words by what they do in speech. Build 15-minute sets of 9-12 words arranged by cue, use, and contrast.
The 3-Column Recall Sheet — every word gets a cue, a use, and a contrast. Forces discrimination, not passive scanning.
Traffic Light Review System — Green (ready), Amber (shaky, targeted repair), Red (parked). Stop dragging dead words through fake reviews.
Speaking Prompt Rehearsal Sequence — pair words with main answers and follow-ups. Test under a timer. If it cannot survive 30 seconds of live pressure, it is not ready.
Pre-Test Sorting Rule — in the final week, subtract, do not add. The set gets leaner, speaking gets stronger.
Includes: Prompt Theme Selection Checklist, Three Column Recall Sheet Template, Traffic Light Sorting Guide, Timed Rehearsal Protocol.
