- Speak it through twice using the framework
3. Win the Debate
Your tutor takes the other side and pushes back. Defend your position in real time.

The Class That Pays Off Most at Work
After starting to practice explaining points using frameworks, I was worried my speech would become too formulaic. But after a month, I realized that even without consciously using frameworks, my sentences became much more logical and clear.
Although I scored 7.5 on the IELTS, working with foreign colleagues still felt a bit challenging. I planned to improve gradually through experience, but the Advanced course speeds up this process. It's perfect for those who need to use English daily at work.
Language skills and being a good communicator are definitely different. Even in Chinese, not everyone in Taiwan can clearly express their points. I highly recommend the Advanced course for those with a solid foundation to systematically train their English expression.
