(This is a cross-post from our Dave and Amy Goods FB page).

Here we go! ✨ Announcing the new English for me! Picture Dictionary 2. The first of many new books.

We’re so happy to be able to bring this gem to market after all the challenges faced in preparation. From basic detail input of information and settings to activate the online store, to commissioning fresh lively illustrations, all the way through to designing and laying out the artwork from scratch.

Why start with PD2? It’s simple, we took a look at stock levels of our original series of books then cross-referenced that with which books get used the most. That way, we only need to do minimal re-prints of the previous books.

This year, we anticipate having PD2 and 2-3 more books from the series fully updated and available.

The first (and biggest) step on our road to refresh, was a video and photo session - the stars of which were our wonderful kids.

It allowed us to gather true representative imagery of what really happens within the classes at our school and create some short, sharp and very shiny content to convey exactly what we do.

Hello FB. It's been a while.

We've been hard at work teaching - but also in the background working on a brand overhaul from the ground up, along with a series of updated goods.

Take a look at our new home page, there's a lot of information there to take in, including fresh videos showing a brief glimpse into our classes - all the way from beginners up to advanced speakers and returnees.

Lots of updates to come, stay tuned over the next few weeks while we add links to all the new content, features and projects.

Thanks for your time! D&A.

P.S. Here's a link to our blog post about the updates too!

Our life now:

Life in Lockdown I advise my kids to savor the moment, because life is always changing. Life has certainly changed now. Like everyone, we locked down suddenly. We shut our four English Schools and moved online. Golds’ Gym, our regular hangout, shut. Our boys’ soccer and kick boxing, closed. Pian...
