1. Strengthens Memory Retention: Actively recalling words or phrases strengthens the neural pathways in your brain, making it easier to remember their spelling and pronunciation.
2. Identifies Gaps in Knowledge: Retrieval practice highlights areas where you're unsure or make mistakes, helping you focus on what needs improvement.
3. Builds Confidence: Successfully retrieving correct spellings and dictation phrases boosts confidence, reinforcing your ability to recall them under pressure.
4. Improves Long-Term Learning: By repeatedly practicing retrieval, you move information from short-term memory to long-term memory, ensuring better retention over time.
