If learning English really worked, why does it disappear when your career is on the line? Many adult learners use English regularly and feel comfortable in low-pressure situations. They can read, listen, and prepare answers in advance. However, during important moments — such as job interviews, meetings, or conversations with senior colleagues — English may suddenly feel difficult to access. This experience often leads learners to believe they need more vocabulary, more grammar practice, or more courses. While language knowledge is important, high-stakes situations introduce additional factors. Pressure, responsibility, and fear of making mistakes can affect how people think and respond. As a result, familiar words may not come out as expected. This does not mean that learners lack ability or effort. It highlights the difference between knowing a language and using it confidently under pressure. Recognizing this gap can help learners better understand their experience and reflect on why progress sometimes feels inconsistent, even after many years of study. Written by Anatoly Glazkov

Why Learning English Can Still Feel Difficult After Years of Study? Many adult learners have studied English for a long time. They learn vocabulary, practice grammar, use apps, and attend classes. Yet in important moments — such as interviews, meetings, or conversations with native speakers — they may still feel nervous, stuck, or unable to express themselves. When this happens, the usual conclusion is simple: “I need to learn more.” However, this experience suggests that language knowledge alone is not always the issue. In real situations, speaking is influenced not only by what a learner knows, but also by how they feel and how they see themselves while speaking. Under pressure, confidence can drop, thoughts can slow down, and familiar words may feel inaccessible. This is why some learners say they know English “in theory,” but struggle to use it when it matters. Recognizing this gap can help learners better understand their experience and reflect on why progress sometimes feels slow or frustrating. Written by Anatoly Glazkov

Who wants to sound like a native English speaker from the United States? Maybe you're wanting to visit the United States. Maybe you're wanting to move to the United States. Maybe you got a job in the United States and you want to be able to communicate with people in your new neighborhood. Or maybe you already live in the United States but were born in another country, but you want to learn how to sound more like you live here. You want to talk to people in the grocery store, book store and more! But your accent is bothering you. Have you ever had someone from the United States really judge your pronunciation? Really listen to all the sounds you make when you speak? Then let you know what letter sounds that you say wrong in American English? Then actually teach you how to say American English letter sounds clearly and correctly. So your nouns, vowels etc sound really clear and understandable. Not like.. 'Sort of like American English' but really American English. That way your listener knows exactly what you're saying without confusion, hesitation, assumptions, mis understanding. Wouldn't your listener appreciate that? Wouldn't that make the conversation more free flowing and more enjoyable? Check out my tutor profile and book a lesson of mine. I've been tutoring students around the world since 2018 to sound more American.
