FAQ

Who is this for?

Working English teachers at B1+ who want a working B2 and a band to show for it. Twelve seats. Entry is a 10-minute placement interview and a short online test.

Do I need to buy the book?

The course follows Outcomes Upper Intermediate, 3rd edition, and you need the Student’s Book. I will tell you where to get it when you apply; the flipped set and homework point you to its pages every week.

What if I miss a class?

The class materials go into the Class library the same evening and your study partner has the breakout notes. The recording and the homework still count that week. Miss two in a row and I will message you.

Are classes recorded?

[DECISION: yes, kept in the Class library for the length of the course, or no.] Either way, the materials from every class are there the same evening.

How is my writing marked?

Every draft gets feedback within minutes on the four public criteria: Task Achievement, Coherence and Cohesion, Lexical Resource, Grammatical Range and Accuracy. You rewrite, and I comment on the rewrite.

What does the bot send?

Five chunks a day at 08:00 in Telegram with one question to tap, a review on Saturday and a Sunday spiral that brings back words from earlier weeks. Five minutes a day; the ones you get wrong come back within three days.

How do I pay?

[PRICE] a month, paid monthly in advance, by [Payme, Click or card: confirm]. The first month is due after your placement interview, when your seat is confirmed.

What is the report, and is it an IELTS result?

At the end you get a band estimate per skill from three computer-delivered mocks, your vocabulary retention and your week 1 and week 12 recordings side by side. It is my estimate against the public descriptors. It is not an IELTS result and cannot be presented as one.
