The Problem with Traditional Worksheets

Students complete vocabulary worksheets on Monday.
By Friday? They've forgotten everything.
Sound familiar?There's a reason this happens—and research explains it.

Research-backed Methodology

Second Language Acquisition research shows students need 8-12 meaningful encounters with a word for long-term retention (Paul Nation, SLA).Traditional worksheets provide 1 encounter. Students complete them and forget in a few days.LinguaTeach workbooks provide 6-10 encounters per word through multiple activities: spelling, visual representation, translation, and contextual use.This isn't passive copying. It's applied SLA science.

The Solution: Construction-Based Workbooks

Each workbook applies construction-based learning backed by SLA research. Vocabulary books: multiple encounters with each word through spelling, drawing, and contextual use. Grammar books: students build their own tense guides and verb references. Active building leads to lasting retention.

My Tenses Workbook

Make English tenses clearer and easier to use correctly.

Students build understanding through guided examples and repeated practice across key English tenses.

75 pages • 12 major tenses • 36 practice spreads. Perfect for students learning English verb system. Construction-based learning, not memorization

My Irregular Verbs Workbook

Help students master irregular verbs before they need them.

53 pages • 250 verb capacity • 5 verbs per page. Perfect for proactive practice before formal tense teaching. Systematic approach that builds confidence

Why this system works

• Active construction, not copying

Students build their own references—not fill in blanks and forget. Construction beats copying every time. Creating meaning helps learning last longer.

• Focused practice, one concept at a time

One word per page. One tense per spread. Students master concepts instead of drowning in them.

• Designed for retention

The structure encourages recall, writing, and revisiting — supporting long-term memory rather than short-term completion.

Simple, structured practice tested in real classrooms.

About

LinguaTeach Press was created by a classroom teacher, for classrooms where real learning matters.Like many teachers, I used to see students complete vocabulary and grammar worksheets perfectly one day and forget everything a few days later. The work was finished. The answers were correct. But the learning didn’t last.Students were copying, not thinking. Practicing, but not understanding.Research has been clear for years: students remember what they construct, not what they passively consume. Learning sticks when students create their own examples, write their own explanations, and actively build meaning. Yet most language workbooks don’t allow space for that kind of thinking.So I designed materials that do.LinguaTeach Press workbooks are structured tools that guide students to build their own vocabulary and grammar references, one concept at a time. Instead of filling in blanks and moving on, students record, organize, revisit, and refine their understanding. Each page becomes part of a personal language system they can actually use.These materials are intentionally simple. They avoid distractions, shortcuts, and over-designed activities. What they offer instead is consistent, meaningful practice, the kind that may look quiet in the classroom, but produces lasting results.LinguaTeach Press is for teachers who believe that:● Progress matters more than speed● Understanding matters more than correct answers● Students deserve materials that respect their intelligenceEvery workbook is designed to support long-term retention, independent thinking, and steady improvement, whether you teach young learners, teens, or adults, and whether you work in private schools, language centres, or public classrooms.This project began in my little classroom in Greece. Today, it supports teachers and learners around the world who are looking for materials that work because they are grounded in how learning actually happens.LinguaTeach Press is not about quick wins.
It’s about building language knowledge that lasts.
