Hello Reader, I think the typical way we are taught and try to learn grammar SUCKS. It's incredibly boring. It's usually 100% about memorizing lists of rules and verbs. And worse: this approach rarely works. It doesn't stick! Do you agree?

Join me for the most introvert friendly (and fun!) training session you'll ever have where you'll learn practical...
Hello Reader, The quick answer: a big fat FALSE. Living in Canada for 10 years DOES NOT = acing the CELPIP. In fact, it can = being stuck at the same English level as when you first started! In this week's podcast, you'll hear about a person who has been in Canada 10+ years but they are still stuck at an intermediate/upper intermediate level of English. The problem: they desperately need a 10 on the CELPIP for their PR. But you know what? Their real problem isn't being stuck at an 8. The real...
