Advanced English Course Outcomes
The focus of this course is on developing a comprehensive vocabulary and improving your skills and fluency towards English proficiency.
Furthermore, the fluency part will happen when you practise and activate what you are learning; when you write and when you complete the speaking tasks.
"I monitor and correct your work consistently. When you send me your speaking tasks, I give you feedback on your pronunciation and give you suggestions about how you can sound more fluent and natural (I usually give this feedback by audio)."

Course Requirements
- Your current English level is B2, C1 or C2
- You love English! English is a hobby for you: it's something that you enjoy and something you want to invest your time in
- You are prepared to put the work in and try something NEW! You are willing to share your ideas, try out new language and learn from your peers and your mistakes
- TIME & COMMITMENT:
The time you spend each course will vary, depending on your individual goals, pace, starting level and what’s going on in your life that month!
As a minimum, you are expected to dedicate 4 hours to the tasks in each course. This is sufficient if your goal is to maintain your level and cultivate your English knowledge.
For those of you who want to go up a level and work towards significant improvement, we suggest 6-12 hours per course (or per month if you join our monthly subscription)
Is Road to Proficiency the right course for you?
As much as I’d love to say “this course is everyone!” I can’t. It isn’t!
It ISN’T for everyone. I designed it for people who really love English; who are really willing to spend their free time on it and for people who genuinely want to experience a new approach to learning.
This advanced English course gives you A LOT of flexibility: you can study when you want, where you want and how often you want. However, it still requires you to COMMIT to learning.
Why am I trying to put you off*?! (put you off means dissuade you!)
Quite simply, if you don’t meet the requirements, this course won’t work for you and you’ll be disappointed.
I want my students to enjoy learning but that will only happen if you log in consistently and do the work!
Road to Proficiency is NOT for you if:
- Your current English level is intermediate or lower (B1, A2 or A1)
- When you think about English you think: I have to improve my English not I want to improve my English
- You expect that your English will improve without putting in the work
- You are not willing to spend at least 4 hours per course following our programme
- You are interested in quick fixes, not the journey to get you there
- You are seeking a traditional approach
- You want one-to-one lessons
