Original English material for advanced and intermedite English classes

Original Materials

We don't use textbooks.

 

David has created 300+ original materials since 2017.

Most material focuses on one theme each week, introduces a short article or video (4-10 min) and includes audio, transcript, English tips, and six discussion questions.

Some materials introduce an activity like a student-led discussion, brainstorm, or role-play.

We recommend students prepare one hour each week, but less time is also fine. The class itself is interactive group discussion.

What My Students Say

Naoya

(5-star Google Review)

他の英会話スクールでは日常会話が多いですが、このクラスでは文化や課題、日本と海外の違いなどを学べます。事前学習をする時間がないことがありますが、Davidさん、他の受講者の要約を聞けば、問題なく参加できます。英会話でディスカッションをするスタイルは他にはないと思いますので、おすすめです。」
