How to learn English on your own: the case of the President of Kyrgyzstan

There is nowhere without English now. Knowledge of a foreign language opens up new career prospects, and it's a shame to use gestures abroad. It is a pity that this thought did not come during my student years, when there was more time and motivation. Now poring over textbooks is no longer with your hands.

A good option was proposed by the President of Kyrgyzstan Almazbek Atambayev. Recently in Moscow, he held a meeting with compatriots and shared his personal experience while discussing new educational programs. "I am 60 years old, I learned English through the Internet and now I can communicate in it,— Atambayev said. — I didn't even have a teacher, because I don't have enough time. I learned English through Puzzle English".

Enlightenment on the couch

Not only is personal lessons with a tutor an expensive pleasure, but it is also not easy to fit them into your schedule. Sometimes there is no time to even meet with friends, let alone go to a tutor. And the Puzzle English online service allows you to synchronize learning with your own rhythm of life. There was a free minute — I took a linguistic step forward.

In addition, you can always spur yourself with a personal plan. The program makes a weekly list of tasks according to your goals and level of language proficiency. By the way, you can easily determine it using a universal test. For the timely performance of exercises, the internal currency is credited — "puzzles". They can be spent on connecting paid services or exchanged for valuable gifts.

Mine is yours to understand

Ask any knowledgeable person, the best way to comprehend a foreign language is listening to the speech of its native speakers. Therefore, Puzzle English focuses on this aspect. Movies, music videos, YouTube blogs, excerpts from films - all recordings are equipped with English and Russian subtitles for high—quality assimilation.

A great way to self—test is video bases. The video is divided into separate phrases, and after watching each of them, you must repeat the phrase using the suggested words. Playback can be slowed down if necessary. Moreover, these are not some mothballs that are shown at school, but modern content: music videos, interviews with celebrities, Western TV shows, episodes from popular movies and TV series…

For the mind and heart

However, you will not be satisfied with one so-called listening. Even if your task is to learn only oral speech, nothing sensible will come out without knowledge of grammar. The lessons recorded by Puzzle English teachers cover all grammatical subtleties, from the basic to the most sophisticated. And according to the results of viewing, you will be recommended to perform the appropriate exercise. At the same time, any unfamiliar word that you meet on the vastness of the site can be added to your personal dictionary and then trained at your own pace.

Just do not think that Puzzle English is focused on self-forgetful geeks. There is enough of all kinds of language entertainment here. For example, you can show off your erudition by clashing with a friend or a random user in the intellectual quiz "Duel of Minds". Or play "danetka", determining the correct translation of the word at speed.

Do you need help?

In the end, if you still feel that independent research is not enough, you can always turn to a professional for help. For this purpose, the "Ticher Method" service has been created. The educational process consists of alternating self-study and tutoring.

Moving from simple to complex, you first study a certain topic on your own, and then during an online lesson with a teacher you analyze the mistakes made. After that, you receive individual recommendations and tasks for fixing the material. During the course, several exams are conducted to determine whether you are ready to move to a more difficult level. There are seven courses in total, including children's, for people with different levels of language proficiency.

In order for the training on the "Ticher Method" to proceed without any restrictions, it is worth choosing the "All Inclusive" tariff. It gives unlimited unlimited access to all the features of the site. If you are confident in your abilities and know for sure that a year will be enough for you, connect the "Subscription", for which the discount is now valid. So it will be much cheaper than buying services separately.

By the way, please note: the promo code picture gives a 20% discount on all payments in Puzzle English, except for the connection of the "All Inclusive" tariff and classes with a teacher.
