Exciting things.

At the moment I'm on vacation in Honduras.

I'm on Rowatan Island, scuba diving for the next week.

So far the diving has been fantastic. I've gotten my

advanced certification and also certification in enriched air diving. Nitrocks.

When I return to San Francisco, we'll be working on several new exciting things.

At the moment, our two new teachers, Kristen and Chris, are working on new lesson albums.

Kristen and I are finishing the movie lessons.

As you know, my Effortless English Club lessons include two sample movie lessons.

In these lessons, you have the text from a real Hollywood movie.

For each scene, there's also a vocabulary lesson.

I explain difficult phrases, especially idioms and slang.

Then there is a Listen and Answer mini story lesson, or more than one.

This is the most powerful lesson.

In the mini story we ask a lot of questions

while telling a story. You answer the questions.

As you hear the questions and answer them

you effortlessly learn vocabulary and grammar

and you learn them deeply

some lesson sets also include a point of view lesson in which we tell the same story

using different grammar, past, future, etc.

Chris and I are working on a core fluency lesson album.
