Why is it so hard to understand English in the real world?
You've been learning English for a while, and you can understand your teacher... but when you watch a movie or read something written for native speakers... suddenly English seems a LOT harder.
There's a reason for this:
π‘ English lessons are designed to help you understand.
π But real-world English is NOT designed for English learners.
The vocabulary is NOT simplified.
The speed of speaking is NOT slowed down.
Nobody is stopping to explain new idioms or expressions.
That means it's more difficult - and more frustrating. π
But if you want to become more fluent and confident, you need to go beyond English lessons and textbooks, and start becoming comfortable with the language that native speakers ACTUALLY use.
That's exactly what you can do inside the NEW Real-World English Challenge! - starting November 1!
For 30 days, we'll learn English from a variety of real sources like news reports, YouTube videos, presentations, blogs, and more. These are all created by native speakers, for native speakers - so this challenge is designed to help you become comfortable and confident with native-level English.
We'll work with each piece of real-world English for 3 days. This gives you time to understand the English deeply, practice what you learn, and use it yourself.
Β Β π‘ DAY 1: LEARN. Read or listen to a piece of real-world English and learn key words and phrases. Β Β βοΈ DAY 2: PRACTICE. Do the exercises to review the new vocabulary and try using it yourself. Β Β π¬ DAY 3: CHAT. Share your ideas and opinions on the topic inside our private student WhatsApp group. Β Β π AND REPEAT! Start the cycle again with a NEW piece of real-world English to learn different vocabulary and discuss a new theme.
