✨ Grammar in Conversation Course: https://courses.espressoenglish.net/grammar-in-conversation-course-A2-B1/

A lot of English learners can get 100% on a grammar quiz...

...but have difficulty using correct grammar when speaking. 🤔

⚠️ The problem is that speaking is different from studying.

When you're doing a grammar exercise, you have plenty of time to think. You can focus on one sentence, remember the rule, and choose the correct answer.

But when you're speaking English, your brain is doing a LOT more at the same time!

You need to...

understand what the other person is saying

think of what you want to say

remember vocabulary

put a sentence together

pronounce the words correctly

And while you're trying to do all that... you end up making grammar mistakes 😓

When you're having a conversation, you don't have time to think about the grammar rules. So how can you use English grammar more easily and naturally?

The new Grammar in Conversation Course uses a simple 3-step method: See - Learn - Speak

First, you SEE the grammar used naturally in a conversation - making it easy to understand how native English speakers talk.

Then you LEARN the grammar though my clear explanation, using examples from the conversation.

Finally, you SPEAK - practice using the grammar yourself, now that you have a good understanding of how it works.

That's how you go from knowing grammar... to using it naturally!
