Backed by science, using audios to study your weaknesses has double the retention compared to reading. Listen to a personalised MP3 with your English weaknesses whilst doing other tasks such as driving, exercising, washing up etc. Since you are multi-tasking while listening, you save your precious time!

You will talk like never before in engaging sessions. 70% of training is speaking to find and eliminate your weaknesses whilst transforming your confidence. In addition, if you have issues for example in dating (I wrote a dating book), relationships, losing weight, depression, starting a business or getting paid more, I will drive you to get on the path to success. In this course you will also:

โœจ - ๐’๐ฉ๐ž๐ž๐-๐ฎ๐ฉ your fluency

You will gain confidence in situations such as dating, presentations, meetings or social events. As an introvert myself, I know how awkward this can be. In this course you will:
