Write Something Meaningful
Make a to do list, keep a journal, compose a poem, draft a short story … just write something – anything – that gives you a reason to practice using verbs.
Make Flashcards
Find some index cards or cut paper into squares – write a subject pronoun and verb in the infinitive (e.g., ellos – ir) on one side, and the conjugation on the other (van). Now you can test yourself by looking at either side and trying to remember what the other side says. Flashcards are a nice, portable option when you can’t or don’t want to use your phone. If that’s not an issue, you can create online flashcards.
