Hi!

I am Anna, this course designer and tutor!

As a Cambridge-qualified English Teacher with many years of experience, I've seen how my students needed much more than just grammar and vocabulary lessons; they wanted to dive into self-development topics and feel confident understanding and discussing them in English. So, I rolled up my sleeves and created a course: I mixed in practical activities, group chats, and focused on real-life stuff my students were actually interested in. This course is my way of giving you what you were missing – a chance to boost your English skills while exploring your own self-growth journey and connecting with people all over the world."

Some questions... and answers))

Q: What makes this course special?
A: This course is tailor-made to enhance language skills for personal development, designed specifically for B2 level students and above.

Q: How does the course help improve my language skills?
A: Dive into real-world activities, including listening, reading, and writing exercises, offering an immersive learning experience that makes language improvement enjoyable and effective.

Q: What's the key to connecting with a global community through this course?
A: Engage in small group discussions where you can share your experiences, ensuring you not only improve your language skills but also connect with like-minded individuals from around the world.

Q: Why should I join this course?
A: Become part of a supportive community dedicated to breaking language barriers and enhancing communication abilities, ultimately fostering personal development in a global context.

What my students say about the course:

“Actually, I feel the course a my Christmas gift - I had such a nice time )) Also an acquaintance of mine who is an English teacher herself noticed my progress in speaking after just a month! Thank you ”

“What I liked about the course was the opportunity to speak to other people and hear their opinions on the same topics. Our opinions were sometimes different... and we spoke more and more...”
