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.

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, You may have realised by now that I love writing (newsletters, poems, essays, stories, journaling). So as my 30th birthday rolled around, I became even more reflective than usual and wrote about 3 important lessons I've learnt so far. I hope they help you too! 1.You have to do it with fear.Fear is normal. It is human. And it rarely disappears. Learn the language. Travel the world. Start the business. Fall in love. I have done all of these things with fear. Not fearless, but with...

Hi Reader Summer may be fading away and lots of us think about returning to offices, routines and predictability. However, I want to keep some of the magic of summer and take some spontaneous sunshine into September with me! I think there are always ways to find bubbles of joy and ways to make the mundane a little bit more magical ✨ In language learning it may involve finding a new podcast for your commute, or using some bright coloured highlighters to add interest to those endless grammar...
