“Why Is English Is So Difficult To Learn?”
The Problem Isn’t You… It’s The “System”
Most people do not struggle with learning English because they lack intelligence — but because the traditional “system” that they have been given… is broken.
I Created GiveMeSomeEnglish!!! To Fix That Problem
.
What you may look like if you use the WRONG English Vocabulary
Communication Is Not Simply About Words...
The language you use reveals far more than Vocabulary & Grammar — it reveals your Level of Intelligence; your Values; and even your Moral Compass.
.
So… Would you rather learn from someone who only teaches you to speak as they do — not taking your wants, needs, or values into consideration?
.
Or…
Would you rather learn from a Teacher who Knows the TRUE Meaning & PROPER Usage of Words & Phrases better than most people on the entire planet… Who can help you to Communicate in a way that is a True Reflection of Who YOU Are at your deepest levels?
“Why English Is NOT Difficult To Learn”
How Does It Work?
(Part 1 — The Framework)
Through decades of both study & practical work — with a mind that is specifically wired to see patterns and the disruptions in them — I could not ignore the flaws in the traditional “system” of grammar and how it is taught, which are the very reasons for most confusion that English learners experience.
.
So I created “The Common Tongue”. It’s purpose:
.
1. To Fix That Which Can Be Fixed In Traditional Grammar
2. To Eliminate That Which Is Un-Necessary And Can Not Be Fixed
3. To Teach The True Meaning & Usage Of Words & Phrases
4. To Be An Actual System That INTUITIVELY “Makes Sense”
You Do Not Need To Learn Anything New…
.
You will instead — through every lesson — UN-learn the mistakes you were taught previously (the ones that you already intuitively knew were wrong).
.
You will discover a language that is truly alive with possibilities of expression, like you may have never thought possible before.
.
What Is The Difference Between
A “Good Speaker” And An “Orator”?
“An Orator knows exactly the words that he or she will use; Knows the true meaning & usage OF those words; And ONLY uses words & phrases in this way… (Or else does not speak.)…”

What Is The Difference Between
A “Good Speaker” And An “Orator”?
… [continued from above]
“An Orator does not only say words that SOUND powerful… They fill the space with the power behind the words that they say.”
~ Cloud — “The Teacher”
How Does It Work?
(Part 2 — The Method)
Where The Common Tongue provides the structure — “Enlightened English” provides the method for how to fill that structure so that it is one’s own.
.
It Was Born Of A Simple Yet Solemn Oath — That No Student Should Ever-Again Hear The Words: “That’s just how it is.”
.
The Enlightened English Method rejects mechanical repetition and passive memorization. It, instead, reveals WHY English works as it does — how its Words, Metaphors, and even its Punctuation reflect thought itself.
.
Here, Learning becomes Discovery. Every lesson is designed to awaken Comprehension; not mere correction — to bring Awareness to The Meaning Behind The Words, and the energy they carry when expressed.
.
So you will not-only learn to speak English — you learn to Think, Perceive, and Communicate through it… With Purpose.
.
…
.
You Will OWN The Language That You Use To Communicate With The World.
Many Paths — One Destination
Classes…
Classes are like Conversations, but with specific goal in mind. We focus on topics based on your needs, or simply what you want to learn about. It could be any of the English skills (Reading, Writing, Speaking, Listening), or something like building Vocabulary or increasing your comprehension of Grammar. Your Choice!
Courses…
Grammar; Lexis; Pronunciation; TOEFL iBT Exam; And more! Some courses are included with membership. Others — such as “TOEFL Excellence” — are stand-alone courses. But members always receive discounts on stand-alone courses. (Courses you do on your own, but I’m here to answer any questions along the way.)
Conversation…
Many English learners simply want to keep their skills & knowledge fresh with regular conversation. If that’s your path — I’m here for you! (We only need to decide on a schedule and what you would like to talk about.)
Coaching…
You can think of Coaching as a combination of all three of the other options combined. This is for people who do not simply want to “improve their English”, but who want to become Excellent Communicators.
My Promises To You
I Will Show You — Through
The Common Tongue…
That English Grammar can actually be logical. You will see that it is not a chaotic mess of arbitrary rules, but an almost mathematical system that most never truly comprehend — one that becomes intuitive when comprehended as an actual SYSTEM. It becomes Simple, Elegant, and even Interesting!
I Will Teach You — Through
Enlightened English…
To build a Personal Lexicon that reflects who you truly are. Together we will shape your vocabulary & phrasing to suit your authentic self and the contexts where your language matters most. This is not imitation & memorization — it is You compiling a set of tools to express Your Voice, as You Truly Are.
I Will Teach With Respect & Courtesy…
You come to learn — not to be spoken-down-to by a teacher who treats their students with an air of superiority — because they are the teacher, and the student must listen to them! This is NOT how learning happens. TRUE Learning (AND Teaching) begin with Listening.
For me to do what you expect from me — I FIRST need to learn from you. Your goals, your Experience, and your Perspective. This ensures that what you learn from me is: Relevant, Resonant, and Useful for You.
I Will Meet You At The Depth Of Learning You Choose…
Whether you only wish to learn the meaning & usage of words & phrases — or you want to journey into the deepest depths of esoteric Knowledge hidden within the Metaphors that make-up the majority of the language — the choice is yours. I do not make those decisions for you.
You are “The Passenger” — I Am “The Guide”. You Tell me where you want to go, and I will take you to your destination in the most memorable and unique way for the kind of “adventure” that you want to have.
Everyone Has Specific Learning Needs
You now know about my System & Method — and you know about the Philosophy that guides them both. This should make it easy to see that what I do is entirely unique in the world of English language instruction.
(So far, I have never met anyone else who does what I do)
My approach to English instruction may not be for everyone — and that’s okay. But I know that it is PERFECT for many. And since you’ve already made it this far — perhaps it is EXACTLY what you have been looking for.
(Even if you didn’t know that such a thing was even available)
“After having lessons with ‘The Teacher’ — I am not interested in having English lessons with any one else!”
