I'm launching my newsletter.....imperfectly, on purpose
|
Hi Reader I encourage my students to speak English before they're fully confident, because trying is better than waiting for a perfect moment. Progress > perfection (Newsflash: you will never feel 100% ready!) So, without feeling 100% ready, I'm launching my newsletter to practise what I teach. Thanks for joining me for the ride, Reader. I want to write real, human content that makes you excited to learn and helps you in your journey to fluency because the world doesn't need more AI content or inauthentic messages filling our inbox. Once a month, I'll be sprinkling your day with a little bit of pink and practical tips to boost your English. Expect quick updates from Mega Language Coach and real resources to support your learning journey... short and sweet, because your time is valuable. Tip of the monthThis month, I've been focussing a lot on pronunciation with many clients, particularly the vowel sounds which are not always said as they are written. Notice the difference between the short /i/, and the long /i:/ sound in many English words. Practice the difference by saying the following pairs out loud, and see how your mouth shape changes:
June 2025You will improve your English by practicing regularly and immersing yourself in the language as much as possible. Find a method that suits your schedule and interests, to find the joy in learning. Coaching cornerA moment for quiet reflection or journalling, even just thinking about your answers can help you notice patterns and shift your focus. When do you feel most confident using English at work? When do you feel least confident? Stay tuned for more tips, videos, client stories, podcast episodes, travel reflections, language disasters and everything inbetween! Hit reply and tell me what you're learning at the moment. Meg P.S In my lessons, I create a safe, welcoming space for feedback and suggestions, and I want the same for this newsletter. Let me know what you'd love to see more (or less) of. I’m listening.

Hi Reader I hope you've had a serene September. As my Mexican adventure finishes and I prepare for the next chaper, I want to share some reflections which may be useful in your own journey. "Oh the places you'll go" by Dr Seuss is a book that I loved as a child, even before I could read it myself. (I've heard rumours of a film adaptation coming soon, which will be a great chance to practice English comprehension!) This book taught me that we don't know where we will go in the future, and to...
Hi Reader As we pack away the sun cream and unleash a new set of pens ready for back to school, I want to talk about fake progress in language learning. (I do miss the days of new highlighters, notebooks and sharp pencils as September begins!) Sometimes it feels like we’re doing everything right: watching films with subtitles, listening to podcasts on the way to work, highlighting useful words in news articles, taking lessons regularly. Yet there is still no real change in confidence. No big...
Hi Reader Well it's not actually my birthday, but I celebrated the first year of MLC this month (with cake of course!) It feels strange to write because I've been teaching English for over 10 years for other language schools and companies. One year ago, I went all in with my own business. In the same week, I travelled to Mexico, became a digital nomad and launched Mega Language Coach. Whether you call it bold or a little bit crazy, I knew I was ready for a change. Since then, I’ve taught...
