This session is an opportunity to discuss ideas presented in my recorded tutorial:


SelfDirectedLifeLongLanguageLearning (SDLLLL) Main Presentation

Why not listen ... and then see if you would like to join this FREE session, to discuss these ideas further ...

Here's the introduction to the presentation:
Many of us begin learning languages as children in schools - where teachers make the big Language Learning decisions: language level, learning materials and study methods.

As adults - busy professionals and students in non-language disciplines - we know that excellent communication skills are vital to professional and personal success. The continued improvement we need requires Life-Long diligence. The good news is that adult Language Learners have the opportunity to take on both roles - the role of the Learner (of course), and also the role of the 'Learning Director'.

This presentation invites you to carefully consider your own situation and needs, and to strategically select short, frequent new 'habits' which will easily fit into your busy days, and guarantee your continued growth in English - as a Self-Directed Life-Long Language Learner.

This presentation is accompanied by a PDF handout.
