Скачать или смотреть English lessons 15 min a day. Micro learning, asynchronous

You can call me crazy, but I truly believe that even 5 minutes is enough to start speaking English.

The goal of my students is to start speaking English and gain freedom while traveling, without depending on translators. But the main obstacle is the schedule and sitting for hours in front of a computer on Zoom — lessons get rescheduled, canceled, because who really wants to sit in a lesson for an hour after work in the evening? Not me.

You can’t find courses in language centers or with private tutors on weekends — the time is always chosen to suit the teacher, not the student.

During a 60-minute lesson that you finally managed to attend, your concentration drops after 10 minutes and reaches its minimum by minute 30. At that point, you’re not thinking about Present Simple anymore — you’re mentally choosing dinner.

To find a solution to this, I canceled all my classic lessons and decided it was time to change the system. Yes, I lost regular clients and part of my income, but what matters more to me is that my students reach their goal — to start speaking English.

How can we integrate learning into life, instead of adjusting our whole schedule around it?

That’s how I came up with the idea of asynchronous microlearning: 15-minute lessons every day, without the need to meet on Zoom. Classes take place on a platform, answers are checked automatically, and then the lesson is sent to me for review. This way, I created an environment where the student studies at a convenient time, and I give feedback afterwards. Thanks to short lessons, motivation doesn’t drop and concentration doesn’t have time to fade. Work happens at the peak of focus. After 15 minutes, the student moves on with their day, feeling accomplished, without needing to rush anywhere.

Happy students are already traveling with their new knowledge and putting everything into practice. Thanks to the frequency — 6 times a week — the material doesn’t get forgotten.
