What is pre-teaching vocabulary?

Pre-teaching vocabulary is a strategy used in education where teachers introduce students to key words or concepts that will be used in upcoming lessons or lectures. By doing so, students are able to better understand and engage with the material. It can also help support students who may be struggling with unfamiliar terminology or language barriers. Pre-teaching can be particularly effective for students with learning disabilities or English language learners. Teachers often use a variety of methods to pre-teach vocabulary, such as providing definitions, using images or videos, or providing context through examples and discussions. Ultimately, pre-teaching is a powerful way to improve students' understanding and retention of new material.
