Here’s a simple observation.There are millions of tutors and professors who conduct intensive Spoken English classes filled with advanced grammar lessons, vocabulary practice and even videos of native English speakers having conversations. There are hundreds and thousands of ESL Programs and English speaking courses around the globe. There are schools that specifically prepare students for exams like TOEFL.There are English language classes conducted through email and software. There are certificates, diplomas and degrees awarded for completion of most of these Spoken English programs.
With all of these out there, why is speaking English fluently still so difficult for most non-native speakers? Why is it that most non-native speakers know 80% of all grammar rules but still struggle to speak confidently? Why do most students only end up with a “certificate” saying they have completed an English Speaking course but not the ability to really speak in English? Why do most English speaking programs fail?
We believe the fundamental issue lies in the way Spoken English classes are conducted all over the world.
What if there was a way to liberate students from grammar and allow them to talk more, the same way they did when learning their native language? What if the students spoke 90% of the time in English classes? What if you could have real conversations with native English speakers, the same way you would if you lived in an English speaking country? What if there was a way to learn smarter, spending less memorizing vocabulary and spending more time actually speaking in English.
With Spoken English Practice, you can do all this. Spoken English Practice’s vision is to of transform the way English Speaking courses are conducted. Our philosophy is simple – the ONLY way to really be fluent in English is to have real conversations with native speakers. Just like you can’t learn to swim without actually swimming. Just like you can’t learn to bike without actually riding a bike. Just like you can’t learn to cook without actually cooking. Learning English speaking is not like learning Biology and Marketing. Theory is of zero value, unless you put it to practice.
So we will leave you with these final words as we wish you a great year ahead! Practicing Spoken English with natives is not only the smartest and most logical way to improve your communications English skills- it is also the fastest and cheapest method in the long run!
Have a fantastic 2015!
