How to study a book, step by step

1. 1

   Choose a book for your goal

   Books are grouped by CEFR level, by exam and by special purpose such as frequency lists or office English.

2. 2

   Open the book

   See how many words and sets it has and read through the word list before you start.

3. 3

   Study one set at a time

   Pick a set and choose a practice mode: flashcards, guessing, quizzes, pronunciation or a mix.

4. 4

   Keep going where you stopped

   Biibo shows how far you are in each book, so you can come back to the next set at any time.

5. 5

   Review what you learned

   Practised words move into Smart Review, which schedules them again before you forget them.

Who it is for and what you get

• Exam candidates

  IELTS, GRE, GMAT and CET candidates can work through the list for their exam instead of collecting words at random.

• Learners who want a clear level

  The CEFR books let you check which level you have covered and what comes next.

• A steady, measurable plan

  Short sets and a visible progress bar make it easy to study a little every day.

• Pictures and pronunciation built in

  Each word comes with a picture and audio, so you learn how it looks and sounds, not only what it means.
