Description

This is a clear, short and fun course on spelling - just 1 hour. I value your time!

  • Please DO NOT sign up if you are looking for a long comprehensive course.

  • Also DO NOT pay until you are sure you like this format - please first listen to the free introduction and the 3 free lectures (Lectures 2, 4, 10).

  • Of course nobody can teach everything in one hour. But if you have NO TIME and need to improve many spelling mistakes in ONLY 1 HOUR - this course is for you!

The course represents an innovative, science-based method invented by me, Dr. Paxson. Unlike the traditional ways of teaching spelling through memorization or largely random letter blends, this method uses proven spelling frequencies (scientifically called “generalizations”) to focus on what is systematic and important.

My method systematizes English spelling into clear patterns, then presents these patterns as vivid, memorable rules. Not like your usual grammar or spelling course.

I depict profound content for you in a visual, exciting, easy to remember ways. You will not be bored!

The course appeals to different areas of your brain to emphasize the learning material. I employ audio, text and visual methods (even cartoons, pictures and music!) all at once, to enable you easily absorb the material with different senses to enhance your learning.

Please only take this course if you prefer course effectiveness over course length, not if you are looking for a comprehensive course. Even though my innovative method, as expressed in my book, covers almost the entire universe of English spelling, I have not converted my entire book into video lessons. This course is short and focused. The overall approach to efficiency in my method, as reflected in this video-course, is inspired by Richard Koch’s “The “80/20 Principle,” Tim Ferriss’ “The 4-Hour Work Week,” Benedict Carrey’s “How We Learn” and other bestseller efficiency-enhancing theories.

Have you tried other methods but are still challenged by spelling? Whether as a native speaker or an English language learner, whether due to dyslexia or ADHD, whether due to memory issues or boring teachers, whether due to an intense work or study schedule or, to the contrary, procrastination, whether due to a demanding career or costly resume spelling mistakes when applying for a job or college – it does not matter why!

Do not miss out on what helped others, just spend an hour to try this method.

This course includes:

· Engaging lessons, each covering one or more spelling structures

· A short video describing the fascinating story of how this method was invented

· A scientific description of the method, with supporting references and analysis (an except from my book)

· A flash-kit for each lesson (a list of words related to the lessons, for flashcards).

Each episode targets one or more spelling structures. Each spelling structure mastered in the course becomes a key to many spelling situations at once. Lessons are visual and memorable. They include “recaps” at the end of each lesson to secure your newly acquired knowledge.

Even without the additional materials included in the course, in less than an hour, I will empower you with a number of tools to conquer large areas of spelling. Let’s reach your goal of improving your English spelling together.

Who this course is for:

  • Busy professionals and students
  • Native speakers seeking to improve their English spelling
  • English learners of intermediate and advanced levels
