This five session guide builds your vocabulary for college by presenting challenging words in multiple settings. Learning new vocabulary is a multi-stage process involving multiple interactions with new words in context.

This can be helpful for college readiness or test prep. Words include acrimonious, maudlin, nefarious, quixotic and pernicious. The audiobook includes over 100 grade-appropriate words. Each session is around 15 minutes long, making this a quick and easy way to grow your vocabulary and come back for a refresher as often as you need.
Like its predecessor, Vocabulary Energizers II builds vocabulary by presenting the fascinating histories behind those words we need for more effective communication and comprehension. Focusing on a core of 100 words and their back ground stories, the author links these words with hundreds of synonyms and antonyms.
