Dear Students,

As the year begins, it's natural to set ambitious goals (and we genuinely hope you achieve them all!)

💪 However, remember that consistency beats perfection. Taking regular, small steps is better than not moving at all. Even learning just 5 new English words a week can make a big difference in the long run.

💛 Here's to staying consistent on your English learning journey throughout 2025!

We’re excited to announce that our team will be expanding in 2025, and we currently have three open positions:

🔗 Student Recruitment and Experience Manager
🔗 Operations Associate

These roles are perfect for individuals who are motivated to develop a high-quality nonprofit program, eager to be challenged and grow daily, and passionate about making a difference through our mission 💪

Read more about each position and apply through the links provided above.

🇺🇸 This week, we feature a word that sparks much discussion: inauguration.

Let's see what the future brings us!

Slay, skibidi, sigma…

These are the top three kids’ slang words of 2024! One of them even has no meaning (and likely exists just to confuse older generations 😀).

Do you know these terms? Share your thoughts in the comments!

P.S. You can learn more about these words in this article!

The word of the week is here! Don't confuse it with 'гепард'—it's 'cheetah' in English 😄

And please remember, in most cases, one mistake can't jeopardize your whole life. So, be kind to yourself ❤️
