Once I have read somewhere that successful language learners have their own ways of learning vocabulary and this is what I want to study, that is different kinds of strategies in vocabulary acquisition and help students acquire this knowledge.

I think it is important to explain students these strategies to improve their reading, writing and speaking skills. Teaching vocabulary is the aspect that has interested me for a long time.

While writing this paper I want to show some strategies that can improve vocabulary acquisition in learners. These strategies are: learning by using groups of synonyms, antonyms, repetition, learning by definitions, etc.

Among the units that should be considered for teaching are different parts ofspeech, including non-oriented words and word combinations and their effect on the text understanding. We shall deal also with sentence analysis, explanation of different units as well as motivation to increase practice. We would like to demonstrate some of the available possibilities of significant assistance to the students and specialists, dealing with special literature.
