Materials or Services for You!

If you have been searching for an effective English course or product, then you know what it is like to suddenly discover a NEW course or service.

(You feel excited, and hopeful that THIS course will transform your English and make you fluent!)

Hopefully it is not a promise to be bilingual in 7 days (if so please read my up-coming article on the life long process of learning English).

My 9 Favorite ESL Materials!

What would you do if you heard something about a new academy or CD course?

How do you make the decision to remove your credit card from your wallet and make a purchase?

Wouldn't it be nice if you knew someone who had already taken the course, or someone who had first hand experience teaching or learning with that service or method? I would like to be that person for you.

I have worked with a couple of well known academies in Spain, Vaughan Systems and Pueblo Ingles, and I have also taught with materials such asSpeakup Magazine, Hot English Magazine, and various language learning materials and websites.

Here you will find opinions and recommendations from me (a professional teacher) who knows what kinds of English courses work and those which don't. I advise my students regularly on; courses that really work, and others that are a waste of time.

I'd like you to have the same access to this information as they do.
