Hey everyone! 👋 Today’s expression is “taking it up a notch.” 🔥 👉 It means to increase intensity, quality, or effort — making something better, stronger, or more exciting than before. Origin: This phrase comes from mechanics and engineering, where a “notch” is a small increment or level. To take it up a notch literally meant to move a lever or control to the next level. Over time, it entered everyday English to mean stepping things up. ⚙️ Examples: • The team was doing well, but the coach wanted to take it up a notch. 🏀 • This recipe is good, but adding more spices really takes it up a notch. 🌶️ • She wanted to impress the audience, so she took her performance up a notch. 🎤 Now it’s your turn! 💬 Drop your own sentence using “taking it up a notch” below 👇 WE LEARN FROM EACH OTHER! 🤝 English Expressions page in the Classroom 👉https://www.skool.com/lme/classroom/c7105c70?md=a0522a36e24d4286a880b2f958b8f1ea

Method for Enhancing Active Vocabulary by Andrzej Zielinski 1. pick the word that you want to make usable (preferably you feel some kind of likeness to it) - it can be a phrase, too 2. Look carefully how to say it, first slowly then quickly then at your normal speed - you gotta feel comfortable with it - no strain. 3. Get the meaning - do not translate, see the situation where you spot it 4.find two synonyms to your target vocab, one that you use and the other that you do not use. 5. Think about your real-life situation where you could use the target vocabulary (as well as the synonyms) and speak about that situation in English using all three vocabulary items. I especially want to highlight that point - you got to strap that word with the situation that you always remember, being it emotional, embarrassing, successful or whatever. The point is you remember it forever together with the strapped vocab! 6. Create a notebook divided into two columns. In one column write down the situation in the shortest possible way - only words that help you recall it- and a exemplary sentence with the two synonyms - without the target vocabulary. In the other column write only the target vocabulary and cover it so that you can't see it while reviewing. And that's it. 7. After some time look at your situation and see if the vocab keeps coming to you. @Andrzej Zieliński
