Two helpful questions for you today

Hi Reader, It's the weekend and boy am I glad! It's been a busy week, hasn't it? I think these two questions will help you with your English practice: ***The two best questions I've read all week! James Clear's email newsletter is great for reading practice. It's usually short but filled with great ideas to read and think about. If you scroll to the bottom of this post you'll see a great question to think about! It's easy to focus on the bad things that happened to you this week with your English skills. But what went well as you prepared for the CELPIP or worked on your English? Remember: Like James Clear points out, small wins stack up! This is true with your English skills too! 2. Are you spending enough time outside of your comfort zone? This great question is also at the bottom of the post I'm linking to from James Clear's newsletter. (I know...I like sharing and talking about Clear's work.) But he has great ideas that I think will help you as you work on your English skills. In this post he makes a great observation about what you can do to learn faster - and it totally applies to building your English and CELPIP skills! Check it out. Upcoming Class: See you next Wednesday, February 12 at 6pm PST for our next class. Thanks for reading! Have a great weekend. Aaron |

This episode dives into what it really takes to break through — with a candid conversation about misconceptions, strategy, and why doing the same thing over...
Hello Reader, I was digging through a reddit thread the other day that was between someone who claimed to be native English speaker, who took the exam and passed it on their first try with an average score of 11.

They quickly began to promote a well known CELPIP prep YouTube channel that I won't mention, but if you've been at this for a while, you've likely heard of them. The deeper the thread went the more this certain channel was getting...
Hello Reader, I am here to encourage you today to do one thing to practice your English. Not ten things. Not five things. Pick one. Then do it. 💡 Ideas: On your lunch break today, sit with other English speakers, not the folks who speak your first language, and actually engage in the conversation. As soon as you step into your workplace today, greet the first person you see and ask them what they did last night. (Bonus: come prepared to quickly talk about what YOU did last night.) The weekend...
