What others say

What others say about Spoken English Learned Quickly

I raised my TOEFL score from 60 / 70* to 121 / 115 in ten weeks.

"By using the Spoken English Learned Quickly course and its suggested use of a newspaper [see More English Study], I raised my TOEFL score from 60 / 70 to 121 / 115 in ten weeks. I immediately dropped my English classes for college credit courses."

"The Spoken English Learned Quickly emphasis on listening and speaking produced excellent results for me. Speaking out loud taught me how to think in English. The lesson tapes helped me with my pronunciation."

I know beginning students who have successfully used the course. Yet, the course was extremely valuable for me as an advanced student.

"Now, 14 months later, I have been recommended for a job as an English-Russian medical interpreter."

G.G., U.S. College student from Moldova

*A 60-70 computer-based total score equals a 340-357 paper-based total score.

I've been using Spoken English Learned Quickly [with H.....] and I can tell you, I've never seen anything like it in my 14 years as an English teacher! H....'s pronunciation increased amazingly fast! I can hardly wait to use it with more people!

[Later he wrote, ]

The course has been a success! I've never worked with anything so [good]. [One person] agreed to be my student. Two weeks later there was a group...with not less than 10... I had tried to teach English [to this group] before but it was totally different! I almost had to beg to get two or three students. [This time] everybody was excited and they loved it...

The more I know the method, the smoother it becomes.

A.R., English teacher in Brazil

I was 45 years old when I came to the United States. I studied English with ESL lessons. But for two years I could not pass the tests for my electrician's license. After I started using the Spoken English Learned Quickly lessons I passed two electrical tests. I got two licenses and got a job as a journeyman electrician.

V.T., an electrician from Russia

I'm really impressed [with Spoken English Learned Quickly]! That is wonderful!

D. R., St. Petersburg, Russia

I am H. M., on 12-February-2007 I had seen your website. The way of teaching is very nice and useful to me because my nature of job is marketing but I had studied in my Mother tongue. I am not in a knowledgeable person in English. I am a talented person in marketing but commutation skills are all in my mother tongue but i am not success in my work due to the lack of english knowledge (read/speak/writing also)

Please help me how to improve my skill in English

H.M., country not given

[We answered]

Thank you for writing. I produced Spoken English Learned Quickly (SELQ) for people exactly like you. You are a professional, you must study on your own without a teacher, and you have studied English in school but you have difficulty speaking. SELQ is exactly what you need. If you use it for two hours a day for six months, you will be speaking excellent English. (In fact, if you write me a letter every two months and let me know how you are progressing, I will post it on my Others Say page.)

Here is what I suggest.

1) Read the student information page in your mother tongue if it is available on the home page. If not, read it in English from Information for the Student

2) Read the book Learning Spoken English.

3) Copy SELQ so you can use it on an iPod™ or portable MP3 player. See the download link.

4) Because you can already write in English, your ability to read and write in English will improve just as fast as you learn to speak fluently. You will not need to spend more time practicing writing.

5) Start learning fluent English, and become the success you want to be in your work. Use only the SELQ lessons until your English pronunciation is perfect (probably 3 or 4 months). Read the Lesson Text in the SELQ lessons out loud frequently. Then, when your pronunciation is good, also start reading an English newspaper out loud each day. You will find newspaper links in the Learning Spoken English book.

I've just collected the money. I am very happy to receive your reward. In fact, this excitement is the first time I've ever met.

I would like to say thank you very much for your promise. Honestly, at the beginning I was doubt to do the translation as I told myself the return might not guaranteed.

But even I thought I might not get the reward, I've already learnt a lot in the process of translating the fables.

Thanks again.

I know many people wonder if my offer is genuine. I don't blame them because there are so many scams on the internet. But I am a follower of Jesus and He wants me to treat people like He treated them. That means I must always keep my promise.

Thank you ever so much for sending me your CD “Spoken English Learned Quickly.” It’s really a big help for me when studying English.

Dear P.K.

I would love to be in your website and let Peru grow with your divine CD´s and English Course. Please send me a free copy to teach and sell them to.

thank you very much.

I've read your two articles on ESL vs. spoken English and found them to be very good in terms of clarity and correctness. I especially liked your example with the sprinkler system.

[You can read the two articles on this website: A technical comparison of Spoken English Learned Quickly and ESL and Why ESL doesn't work (very well). Also look at the book Learning Spoken English.]

Lack of spoken English is exactly what happened to me and my sister when we came to the U.S. and started attending ESL classes. In fact I didn't really try speaking English for the first two years, because I was always with my Russian buddies and the Americans didn't accept us. (You know how it is in middle school. You're weird if you're not wearing the right sneakers, or especially if you can't speak English well). The same was true in ESL classes. People try to stick to their own kind when they're in a strange place, especially if they are in a foreign country. Russians were the only people I could talk to. So that's what I did. To this day I am below my American peers in spoken English ability. I can express and articulate my ideas just fine, but it is much slower than what I want it to be.

You are doing a great job by training people to speak while they learn English.

V.T., an American student who immigrated from Russia

Obrigado!!
Eu estou maravilhado com esse curso de Inglês. É demais pessoal !! Muito obrigado por isso. . . . estudo Ingles quase todos os dia . . .

I have reviewed...Spoken English Learned Quickly, and must say that I am quite impressed with it. I would like very much to use it with a Vietnamese family I am working with. They are reading and comprehending fairly well but correct grammatical and clear speaking is a problem. It appears your system would greatly [alleviate] that problem.

J. W., Teacher, U.S.

I write to you mister and I hope learning English language by your help to me. I hope learning English by free because I am poor.

A.B., Morocco

[We answered, ]

Dear A.B.
Thank you for writing. We hope the course will be a great help to you. We are glad that we can give it to you for free--you will never need to pay any money.

I am impressed by the number of languages you have included and made learning English available to almost all major cultures of the world. It must have taken years to make such a sophisticated product. What intrigued me immediately is your Israeli Hebrew version for learning English. It goes either way. Since the text is bilingual one could use it to learn modern Hebrew.

D.B., University language instructor -- Paris, France

I basically wanted to use [Spoken English Learned Quickly] for developing English for a school I am involved with.

I have been [seeing on the internet] lots of CDs with TEXT and songs and stories. But I never had a chance to see a material ... which was voice enabled like the one you have.

Secondly your importance on the spoken and not on the Grammar is a good approach as I personally feel - this will help students of any level.

S.N., Saudi Arabia

i wish to sell the CDs and request you to include my name in your seller's list.

K.B., Morocco

I have gone through your website. I like the course. It's really very effective. But there is a doubt I am having. Exactly, what does 'Spoken English Learned Quickly' name refers to.

What meaning does this line has. Is this sentence grammatically correct? I meant to say that I can understand, spoken English Learn Quickly or Spoken English can be Learn Quickly. But I have a doubt regarding this sentence of yours.

[We answered]

Thank you for your very interesting letter. First, we are very glad that Spoken English Learned Quickly is helping you speak English.

You actually gave the correct answer. The complete sentence would be "Spoken English (can be) learned quickly." "Spoken English" is a noun, and "can be" is the implied verb.

This is why learning English by speaking it is so important. In spoken English we rely on many "implied" words (especially verbs) to shorten sentences. This is particularly true in advertising.

V.C., India

I'd love to translate from English to Malay for you if you still require a translator. I believe your 'Spoken English Learned Quickly' CD would be very handy and beneficial to me and my students as I am teaching Spoken English in Malaysia.
