"It is never too late and you are never too old to start something new!" says Englishtown student Ellen Rema. Ellen began to learn English at the age of sixty, and in just a few years, she has made great progress!
Ellen chose to study on Englishtown because no evening classes were offered in the German country side where she lives. On Englishtown, she has conversation classes online and speaks with native English-speaking teachers
"Englishtown is a wonderful place for study," she says. Ellen began with the first level of Englishtown and quickly progressed. "I spent hours and hours studying," she said. "Maybe I wanted too much in a short time. I finished all my courses after 2 years, but I still had grammar difficulties."
Instead of giving up, she chose to continue. After another two years on Englishtown, she's still studying in the online classroom. "Studying online is never boring, but you need d practice, practice, practice!"
Ellen says studying English isn't all about hard work. It should a so be fun. I really like the online conversation classrooms," "I have learned so much about other cultures and traditions."
Ellen has be enable to put her English to use by visiting England five times! "I'm very thankful to Englishtown because my life has improved because of it." Ellen says.
