The best way to improve vocabulary is to read. As you come across words that you are not familiar with, look up the definition. This is truly one of the best ways to expose yourself to increased vocabulary and RETAIN it.
Read a thesaurus (I'm not joking). Just pick one up and check it. You'll retain a lot of information. It worked for me.

Read books and Journals and use a thesaurus or dictionary to help with words you cannot figure out. The only way you will retian the new vocabulary is if you see it in context. Try using the words with a friend who knows you are trying to develop your vocab (so they don't think you are weird). Lastly, try to relate the meanings and words to things you already know, you need several exposures to new materiial before it becomes long term knowledge. Goodluck, you will do fine.
