Say goodbye to stacks of messy flashcards cluttering your language shelf.
THERE'S NO GETTING AROUND IT
If you want to learn a language,
you need to learn vocab.
But you don’t need to fall asleep getting those words in your brain.
You don’t need to write out piles of flashcards you’ll never touch again.
You don’t need more time tapping and swiping to keep that app streak.
Ready to
remember vocab
once and for all?
Heck Yeah, you are! And you know you need help to make that happen without the boredom.
You’ve tried 17 different apps.
All promising “the” way to learn vocab with minimal effort. All failing to deliver for you.
You’re stuck at a plateau.
Because you don’t look forward to learning more when you can’t even remember the words you’re “supposed” to know so far.
You feel embarrassed.
At the amount of words in those piles of vocab notebooks and flashcards that you can’t remember.
WE CAN ACTUALLY ENJOY VOCAB
It works like this...
ICONIC
When you make your vocabulary iconic, you automatically give yourself a better chance of remembering what you learn.
INTENTIONAL
There’s base resources & your own specific vocabulary that you’ll learn intentionally. It’s time to move beyond obligatory streaks.
INCIDENTAL
Just because you’re not actively learning doesn’t mean those words have to be lost. It doesn’t mean you have to learn them either.
You need to learn vocab.
Use everything I do to make it easy.

My favourite thing was the different ways of acquiring more intermediate vocabulary, and the ideas to start writing and practicing from the first words. I feel it will be very useful.

I loved the whole course! I now use listening, speaking, reading, and writing in a more holistic way to learn vocab rather than just "learning words".

MEET YOUR LANGUAGE GUIDE
Hey, I'm Lindsay.
And I’m on a mission to teach you how to learn a language. Yes, you! Vibrant Vocab is a big part of that mission because it’s all about making language learning fun whilst still productive. Win win, huh?
I’ve recently completed my MA in Applied Linguistics and spent the past 2 decades plus of my life learning languages, which means I know a thing or two about how to do this thing.
When I’m not sharing how to learn languages on the internet, I’m trying new-to-me sports (because being a beginner is the best!), hunting down vintage jewellery, and playing with my tortoise Gonzo (who speaks a grand total of zero languages.)

When I’m not sharing how to learn languages on the internet, I’m trying new-to-me sports (because being a beginner is the best!), hunting down vintage jewellery, and playing with my tortoise Gonzo (who speaks a grand total of zero languages.)
I've been there.
I've tried it all too.
(and felt pretty embarrassed when I've forgotten that word I wrote down 10 times.)
And you know what? It’s not our fault. Here’s why we all struggle with vocab…
In school, if you’re anything like me, you got given a list of words each week. At the end of the week, it’s test time.
What happens between the list landing in your hands and that test? Up to you.
Which meant you probably sat and wrote the words out again and again and again. Read them aloud again and again.
Maybe even recorded them onto your massive MP3 player and listening on repeat all night. Just me for that last one?
And then as an adult, chances are you’ve tried an app or two.
And each one has promised spectacular feats of memory and…underdelivered.
It’s not that the school method or app ways are bad as such.
It’s more that there’s only so much they can help without us playing an active role there in the middle bit.
But I knew that with words kinda making up language and vocab being such a core element of successful language learning, I needed a new approach.
That’s what Vibrant Vocab is all about: equipping you with the knowledge to fill that gap with smart vocab learning that works for you.
You’re in the right place if…
You want vocab shame to be a thing of the past. Because screw that. You’re learning a language – that in itself is awesome.
You want to remember words easily without overly complicated repetition systems. We don’t want to be repeating them 3 times in the mirror with a candle at midnight. We’re not trying to summon Bloody Mary here.
You’re ready to learn vocab efficiently. Even more efficiently than you imagine those people with the Moleskine diaries and pastel highlighters on Instagram do. Heck yeah.
SOMETHING UNANSWERED?
In case you're wondering...
Here’s what’s included…

Nope! You’ll be taking what works for you from the course. So no obligation to go out and buy lots of vocab notebooks or app subscriptions! Pick what works and leave what doesn’t – no obligations to buy anything else to get started.
No questions, I'm ready for Vibrant Vocab!
You should know...
I’m not about throwing stuff at you to overwhelm you and make you feel pressured. You’re doing enough right now.
Instead, after completing my MA in Applied Linguistics along with over 2+ decades of language learning, I care much more about sharing linguistics knowledge that you can apply to your language learning. The kind of knowledge that unlocks new ideas for you.
Vibrant Vocab is perfect for smart, independent language learners who aren’t new to language learning and are ready to learn how words work to finally learn vocab once and for all.
P.S. We’ll have fun too. Because for too long this kind of high level knowledge has been kept behind the closed doors of academia. I’ve got the key. And you’re invited.
