We have never seen such an amazing response. Nearly 100% say that the training completely exceeded their expectations.

Brilliant! I was especially interested in how sounds can connect without interrupting the flow of the language… The precision and playfulness in how Geoff made us execute tasks gave amazing results.

Geoff Lindsey’s workshops are an electrifying experience. Don’t miss the magic moments of concentration and exhilaration.

Prof. Masanori Toyota Emeritus, Kyoto & Kansai Gaidai Universities, Japan

A hugely insightful course! Geoff Lindsey deconstructs some false premises and fills some glaring gaps at the very basis of international English language teaching.
