English Grammar Launch: Upgrade your speaking and listening (Udemy.com)

Learn English grammar through lectures and listening and speaking practice, so you can confidently speak English.

Created by: Anthony Kelleher

Last updated November 2025

Our take

Based on the ratings of 46,657 students, a sample of their written reviews and the syllabus, as the course stood in November 2025. No course pays to be reviewed.

Anthony Kelleher's course is a nine-hour grammar program for intermediate learners who care more about speaking and listening than writing. The syllabus shows 23 sections, nearly all built from four short lectures, each on a single structure such as present perfect, used to, relative clauses or had better. Every structure comes with listening and speaking practice, and the course includes PDF transcripts and MP3 downloads, so it works as something to play anywhere as much as something to watch.

Reviewers keep coming back to clarity. They describe clear explanations, everyday examples and a speed that is easy to follow, and one mentions the sample sentences and MP3 files. He gets credit as an engaging teacher who is specific with examples. One learner says it made their English click. Complaints in the sample are small: one reviewer reports breaks in the videos, and another says the start is difficult unless you follow the instructions closely. Only about 640 of 46,657 ratings are one or two stars.

It is a steady, practice-led way to work through spoken grammar, and nearly 196,000 students have enrolled. It was last updated in November 2025. It is not a full grammar reference, though. There are no quizzes or graded exercises, and the topic list is a hand-picked mix, with "Such" and "So and such" appearing as separate sections. Good for intermediate learners who want to hear and say the grammar. Beginners, and anyone who needs tests, should look elsewhere.

Best forIntermediate learners who want short, example-heavy grammar lessons plus MP3 files to practice speaking and listening.
Skip it ifYou want quizzes, graded exercises or a full grammar reference, since this course has no quizzes or practice tests.

Pros

  • Each structure gets four short lectures, so lessons stay focused and easy to fit in
  • Listening and speaking practice for every structure, with MP3 downloads and PDF transcripts
  • Reviewers praise clear explanations and everyday example sentences at a followable pace
  • Strong ratings: about 58% of 46,657 ratings are five stars and 33% are four

Cons

  • No quizzes, assignments or practice tests, so there is no built-in way to check progress
  • Topics are a hand-picked mix, not a full A to Z grammar syllabus, and some repeat (Such, So and such)
  • One reviewer reported breaks in the videos, and another found the start difficult
It made my English click in my head. Now it’s flowing smoothly ,it’s not broken anymore
FRAN, a student

Needs pre-intermediate to intermediate English plus a desire to improve through practice, per the course requirements.

I am glad that I came across this English class. Your explanation of how to use these words needs to be very helpful to me, as English is my second language. I have just started to learn it, and I am enjoying every bit of it.
