Everyone faces the moment when they need to clean out their home.

How can you articulate that something is worn out and no longer in good shape?

Find out today and learn why this topic is a universal connection moment.

You've come so far with your English. Books in English, movies, TV shows, no problem. But there's

still that pause before you respond. That moment gives it away. You're not a beginner,

but you're not quite fluent yet either. The Connected Communicator online course was built for this

final gap. You'll take a virtual road trip with us across the United States to meet dozens of

Americans with different accents, professions, and worldviews.

You'll train with real unscripted, pre-recorded conversations on challenging topics,

like politics, culture, gun rights, and more. Plus, we have new AI partners to practice

with any time and live community speaking events every week.
