Course Description

This is an introduction to troubleshooting ESL skills: Basic English Language Course.  Its purpose is to fill in gaps in communication and give you knowledge of important topics like American culture and social skills, as well as trouble spots that are often skipped over in the English language classroom. It is a highly unique and extremely helpful smattering of solutions - but is not intended as a complete ESL course, nor is it for complete beginners.

Over the past 10 years of teaching adults and college students English as a Second Language, from my classes for beginners to intermediate and advanced students, I have made a note of common challenges. This collection of 60 of the best video lesson responses to these challenges are now organized in sequence with supporting materials and quizzes to help you, the learner, follow along and see your progress.

  • Includes a sampling of troubleshooting solutions across several  topics
  • This basic English language course includes 60 video lectures from 1 to 7 minutes long each, supplementary text materials (explanations to review and worksheets for practice), and quizzes
  • You can complete this basic English language course at your own pace. If you watch one video per weekday, you complete the course in 3 months. If you study intensely for 3-4 hours each day, you can complete the course in two days.

You will benefit from this Basic English Language Course if you are:

  • A high-beginner, intermediate or advanced English learner
  • Looking for a unique, engaging and easy to follow course
  • Looking for a springboard to accelerate your English skills for social, professional or personal reasons
  • Interested in American English culture, idioms and pronunciation

This course is not recommended for:

  • Very low level beginners in English
  • Students looking for a traditional, textbook-based, complete A-Z English course
  • Students under 13 years old
  • Students not interested in social situations, professional English use, or American English

Take this Basic English Language Course right now and improve your English skill.

This is definitely helpful to non-native English speakers. Gabby briefly explains various topics. Some of them are great, I particularly liked the one about intonation. Don't expect her to go into too many details, the videos are very short, some videos are more like a teaser, I literally thought that she would say, "If you want to know more about this topic, buy my other course". You can completely skip interview tips, they are 3 very generic questions and very generic answers. Gabby is good in giving quick points, she has a YouTube channel that you can find useful.

The video's image is poor and the sound is unstable. I mean the sound in some videos is loud than some others. Some of the video has no subtitle or illustration so it's quite hard for student like me to keep track. However, I like the teacher's voice and some videos are quite useful for me. Thanks.

it seems very good cost , in my point of view if some parts of the lectures supported by text appear on the screen during explanation it will be great helpful moreover I see if you have collected the conversation contractions in pdf sheet may be it help for the learners the conclusion the course is wonderful thanks

A superb ESL / EFL teacher!!! An awesome course! Very useful, informative & practical. I appreciate you've been sharing your knowlede and experience with the whole world.

By Samantha on 6/26/2016

I left this evaluation because the course provides important information regarding the way words, phrases, and letters are natively pronounced. Also, the teacher has a clear and captivating way of presenting the content leaving no doubts regarding the subject.

By Shaikpalur Anwar Hussain on 6/4/2016

Good going so far and hope to get even better value for the time spent on this course. Thanks, Debbie. Getting more interesting​ as the course progresses and the most important thing I learned is to know and pronounce my teacher's name, I am sorry Gabby for getting it wrong above. Thanks for everything.

The best english learning course ever i experience,the best parts in this course is course coductor (Gabby) she explanation was excellent,

By Anna Sukhorukova on 3/20/2016

I really enjoyed the course. However, there is a little bit confusing thing: quizzes often contain questions about information which wasn't explained in the lectures. It's not a big deal, you always can find this info online in other sources, but it makes you feel like you missed some lectures while you didn't. In general I'd recommend the course for anyone who learns English by yourself: there is a lot of useful information and the lecturer explains the material very well.

By Andrea Georgiou on 2/27/2016

this is basically for beginners

By Online Expert Academy on 9/14/2013

I've never think that English is so easy to learn and master until I bought this course. It's worth my money..So I give 5 stars. I'm here to urge anyone who want to improve their English just like me, please enroll this course now! Thanks Miss Gabby Wallace. You did a great job!
