New Podcast for you and a special invite


Hello Reader,

Happy Tuesday to you!

If you have found yourself STUCK at a certain score on the CELPIP, then this week's podcast is for you: CELPIP Score Stuck at 7? Here's why and what you can do about it.

What's On This Episode?

  • Consistently low scores on the CELPIP may indicate your English level is not where it needs to be to get the score you want. (But most people just try to take as many CELPIP exams as they can to try and 'pass it.'
  • If you find yourself stuck scoring the same low results, assess your general English skills before retaking the exam.
  • Focus on practicing your weakest areas instead of avoiding them; this can significantly change your scores.
  • Realize that moving from a 7 to a 9 on the CELPIP requires more than just studying harder; it needs dedicated practice sometimes over a year or more.

Bonus: If you're stuck with your CELPIP speaking skills, then I've got a totally free 5 part mini audio course for you. Grab it here.

I talk about this mini course in the podcast, but you're the first to get invited right here!

Have a great day,

Aaron

That 7 or 8 on the CELPIP that you keep getting even after 8 attempts seems to take over your thoughts and has you believing things like, "I suck at this. I'm never going to get 9. NEVER! Maybe I should just give up." In this week's podcast I'm talking about failure, and hopefully I offer you some...

Hello Reader, A few days ago I came across a question over on Reddit that I see a version of pretty much every week. It goes like this: "My exam is in a few days, but my speaking is stuck at 8 after two attempts., I don't feel confident in my speaking. Any tips or templates that could help me?" The common situation I see: I'm stuck at [x lower than wanted score] but I need a way higher score. I don't feel confident (because I keep scoring low!) I have my next exam in a few days. Do you have...
