Anki and Practiz.

Choose Anki if
you want to make and schedule your own flashcards for anything, and you're happy building the decks yourself.
Add Practiz if
you want ready-made English practice at your level, with sentences to build and write, and answers checked for you.
Using both? Keep your Anki decks for the words you collect yourself. Use Practiz to put English words into sentences, in questions you don't have to write.
