In your letter, you talked about your difficulty in English vocabulary learning and asked me for help. You also described your learning methods and how your teacher helped you, both in class and after class.
You are not stupid at all. The problem lies in your method. Memorization, which you adopt, is not the sole solution. For a word to really become a part of your vocabulary, you’d better see more about how it is used in more reading and listening. Besides, don’t forget to use it in your speaking and writing whenever you have chances. The more frequently you see it and use it, the better it can be remembered.
As to how your teacher helps you, I think she also should make a change. For example, introduce and consolidate the target words in a rich context and allow you more time for practice in class, in stead of endless explanation and dictation.
Hope my opinion will be of some help to you.
