Low self-confidence? This will help!



Hi Reader,

Did you know you should be taking notes during the reading section of the CELPIP? Here's how.

Bonus: here's a 14 minute video walk through of this post. It's based on our live members only call we had this week.


Do you struggle with not feeling confident with your English skills, and end up staying stuck because of it? I hope this post will help


For your listening practice: I have been enjoying the Somebody Knows Something podcast on CBC. I think you'll enjoy the story! It will take you on a real life missing person case. Maybe you can solve it!

In case you missed it, stop trying to read EVERYTHING on the reading section of the exam. Do this instead! (From my podcast.)

Thank you for reading! I hope you have a fantastic weekend.

Aaron

Hi Reader, In last week’s podcast, I talked about two things: I shared what I learned from a CELPIP webinar on Speaking Task 4, and I talked about using French to boost your PR application.

Hi Reader, I was scared, but I did it anyway. <-- here's the proof! I have never posted videos or pictures of myself on LinkedIn. Way to far out of my comfort zone.
