INTRODUCTION
There are several methods for accelerating your language acquisition. Finding the proper shortcuts that work for you is a terrific approach to advance more quickly. However, no matter how quick a learner you are, spaced repetition is still one of the most effective teaching methods out there. A learning approach called spaced repetition involves reviewing material repeatedly at ever-increasing intervals in order to make sure that crucial lessons stick in the mind. This not only aids in reinforcing learning but also enables you to address learning gaps among students at each recap session until the subject matter is well retained and comprehended. The easiest approach to understand spaced repetition is to imagine exercising the brain the same

way you would train any other muscle, like the biceps. You don't go lift a 100-pound dumbbell on your first visit to the gym if you want stronger arms. You would begin lifting weights that were five pounds, give your body some time to acclimate, then increase the weight to seven pounds, then 10 pounds. You will continually build stronger arms by increasing the weight in each session. In a manner similar to how you train your muscles to get stronger, spaced repetition trains your brain to store knowledge in your long-term memory for extended periods of time. Lessons don't have to be delivered in exactly the same way throughout each review session when using spaced repetition. As long as there are gaps in time between sessions, different ways of presenting the same ideas are acceptable.
How to teach students foreign language with the use of spaced repetition Computer applications known as spaced repetition software (SRS) are based on a method resembling the use of flashcards. The program allows users to input information that needs to be memorized; this information is then transformed into electronic "decks" that show on screen in a consecutive order, one after the other.
The front of the created card or the question is often shown with a single click from the user. The answer or back of the flashcard are both shown with a second click. The user then notifies the software of the card's difficulty by expressing how difficult it was after seeing the solution. Although the concept of spaced repetition is applicable in a variety of situations, it tends to be most effective when learning lists and simple facts. The implementation of this strategy is ideal for vocabulary acquisition in second language learning, when students are required to memorize a huge number of word lists. Using flashcards to learn vocabulary is a good way to apply Spaced Repetition method. Flashcards must be designed to trigger active recall, rather than simple recognition such as a clear question/ answer format. Moreover, this method only improves recall once you have already learnt something. Therefore, you have to learn the vocabulary first so that Spaced Repetition can help you retain it. To make use of this strategy, you may also utilize other applications or computer programs that employ the Spaced Repetition methodology, such as Mnemosyne and Anki. Anki is among the most well-liked software programs for spaced repetition. Anki, which means "memorization" in Japanese, lets users make their own decks of playing cards or download decks that other users have already created.
Anki's ability to sync decks between various platforms is a feature that consumers love because it lets them study on their phones or while they're online. For the purpose of allowing you to monitor your development over time, Anki also saves

your statistics for each deck. These programs are made to space the cards properly and aid learners in maintaining discipline so that we concentrate on our weaknesses rather than our interests since we have a tendency to study material that is easiest or most fascinating and also struggle to keep our flashcards in sequence. Setting up a spaced repetition learning plan in secondary school classroom activities can aid pupils in remembering what they have learnt. Children will be ready to expand on what they have learnt as a result, giving them a firm basis for official evaluation and subsequent sessions. Let's imagine that you spend an evening learning 100 new Mandarin words to put this in perspective. You keep studying until you have the words completely locked in your memory. Say you need one hour to complete this. You will remember these words quite well the moment you review them. However, you will inevitably start forgetting the information you learnt with time. Additionally, because you had to learn these terms for the first time, your brain is more likely to forget the new information more quickly. The new information has not yet been deemed significant enough to permanently imprint on your brain cells.
CONCLUSION
In short, spaced repetition is an evidence-based technique that enables students acquire foreign languages without difficulty. This method can be utilized both in independent learning and in a classroom environment as well. Using flashcards to learn vocabulary is a good way to apply Spaced Repetition method. Setting up a spaced repetition learning plan in secondary school classroom activities can aid pupils in remembering what they have learnt.
