How we teach
speak ≥ 50%
You talk for half of every class
Grammar is taught because you’re about to use it — in a story, a debate, a role-play — within the same ninety minutes.
max 8 seats
Groups small enough that silence is impossible
Six to eight students: enough voices to be unpredictable, few enough that everyone speaks in every class.
pattern-level feedback
Corrections that name the rule
“You’re using past simple for interrupted actions” teaches more than fixing one sentence. Every piece of homework comes back with the pattern, not just the red ink.
“After eight years of school English I could pass any grammar test and order exactly nothing in a restaurant. Two terms here and I argue about football in English — badly, but loudly.”
