Here are the situations where we can help you learn and thrive:

Are you a student?

 

Our approach is specifically designed for these sorts of frustrating dilemmas:

You’ve tried everything.

Textbooks? Check. Workbooks? Check.

YouTube, blogs, simple nose to the grindstone? Check, check, check.

But the dry rules of grammar, punctuation, spelling, and essay writing just won’t stay in your head.

You’ve explored grammar organically . . .

but when the chips are down, you can’t say why a sentence doesn’t sound right, let alone fix the problem.

In this case intuition only takes you so far, and in life you want to go all the way.

All you need is a nudge in the right direction.

You are smart and creative . . .

but struggle with dyslexia, with paying attention, or with the standard, conventional ways of learning.

No curriculum you’ve found seems to meet you where you’re at or teach you in the ways you learn best.

Are you a teacher?

 

The video lessons and exercises from Marie and Thomas are particularly well suited to these contexts:

You know good grammar is important . . .

but every time you present it, your students grow bored.

The textbooks you’ve been assigned are dull, even deadly, but you don’t have the time or capacity to reinvent everything yourself.

You’re overworked and overwhelmed . . .

but you still want to meet the needs of your students.

You'd love a curriculum that they can do largely on their own.

This isn't merely a practicality, but also, and more importantly, a way of them taking responsibility for their own learning.

You know that you need to teach grammar . . .

but grammar was never really taught to you.

When you were in school, teaching grammar was out of fashion, but you still managed to pick up relatively good English.

Explaining it to your students, though, feels much trickier than you’d like it to be.

The People We Serve Best
