How is it that those who study English formally often speak less fluently than those who haven't? In my essay "The English Problem," I've uncovered at least 18 ways English teaching falls short globally. It's time for change!

I'm reaching out to those who care about improving English learning, especially for non-native speakers. Your support could help bring a neuro-friendly approach to the forefront and challenge outdated methods that hold learners back.

Please take a moment to like, comment, or share this post. Every interaction helps spread the word, and together we can make a difference in English teaching reform!
