How spaced repetition helps you remember

Spaced repetition is a learning technique that spreads reviews over time. Instead of cramming, you see each card again just when you are about to forget it.

This timing strengthens long-term memory. Tools like LinGoat use algorithms (e.g. SM-2 style) to decide when to show each card next based on your answers.

Use it for vocabulary and grammar: do short sessions regularly, and let the system handle the schedule.
