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.

Upcoming Class: See you next Wednesday, February 12 at 6pm PST for our next class. Thanks for reading! Have a great weekend. Aaron |
