We specialise in deep grammar training because we believe that knowing grammar well leads to confident, correct English. Here’s what we believe: Most grammar learning is random - maybe a podcast here and an exercise there. We believe in a systematic, structured approach that builds a strong foundation. Most people don’t use new grammar enough to make the rules automatic. We believe ‘rules become reflexes’ through carefully organised review and practice. Most people think they need hours every week in order to improve. We believe that you ‘don’t need more time, you need more structure’. We think that twenty minutes a day of deep focused study helps more than hours of random bits and pieces.
