About the English curriculum

The English curriculum is a complete, self-paced course in languages, organised into 3 progressive levels and 9 modules. It opens with Foundations of Grammar foundations and Core methods in Sentence structure, moves through Applying Reading comprehension and finishes with expert-level work on Leading practice in Editing & revision and Mastering Academic writing.

Across the whole path you work through 27 individual topics — from Grammar foundations and Hands-on: grammar foundations at the start to Hands-on: academic writing and Common pitfalls in academic writing by the end. The levels are estimated at 6 weeks · about 24 hours, 8 weeks · about 32 hours and 10 weeks · about 40 hours. Each level assumes the one before it, so you can work straight through from Intermediate to Expert, or start at the level that matches what you already know.

It is designed for learners who want usable fluency and clear explanation, not phrase-book memorisation. Practice is cumulative: each module adds structures you immediately reuse, with models, errors to avoid and short production tasks.

Every module pairs a written summary with a worked example, a short quiz to check the idea landed, and a project brief drawn from real practice. You are never asked to take a concept on trust: the reasoning, the common mistakes and the situations where the approach stops working are all laid out, so you finish a module able to explain the idea rather than only recognise it.

What you’ll be able to do

How the English curriculum is structured

Intermediate 6 weeks · about 24 hours 3 modules 9 topics

Intermediate English

Start with Grammar foundations, Sentence structure and Reading comprehension. Each module explains the idea, shows a worked example and ends with a short project, so English becomes something you can do rather than something you have only read about.

Modules: Foundations of Grammar foundations · Core methods in Sentence structure · Applying Reading comprehension

  • Grammar foundations: Grammar foundations is introduced from first principles, with the few terms you actually need and an example that shows how the idea behaves in practice.
  • Hands-on: grammar foundations: Grammar foundations is where many English learners first get stuck, so the module slows down, isolates the difficult step and rebuilds it with you.
  • Common pitfalls in grammar foundations: Grammar foundations is introduced from first principles, with the few terms you actually need and an example that shows how the idea behaves in practice.

Project: Write a one-page explanation of Grammar foundations in your own words, with an example you chose yourself, and test it against the module checklist.

Advanced 8 weeks · about 32 hours 3 modules 9 topics

Advanced English

Build on the intermediate level through Vocabulary in context, Essay writing and Literary devices. The emphasis shifts from knowing the ideas to choosing between them — trade-offs, failure modes and the reasoning behind each decision.

Modules: In depth Vocabulary in context · Patterns and trade-offs in Essay writing · Scaling Literary devices

  • Vocabulary in context: Vocabulary in context is pushed past the textbook case: competing approaches, their trade-offs and the situations where each one breaks down.
  • Putting vocabulary in context to work: The module examines Vocabulary in context closely, including the assumptions beneath it and what changes when those assumptions stop holding.
  • Common pitfalls in vocabulary in context: Vocabulary in context is pushed past the textbook case: competing approaches, their trade-offs and the situations where each one breaks down.

Project: Produce a short case analysis in which Vocabulary in context drives the recommendation, including the alternatives you rejected and why.

Expert 10 weeks · about 40 hours 3 modules 9 topics

Expert English

Work at the edge of English through Spoken English, Editing & revision and Academic writing. The modules assume fluency and ask for judgement: designing, critiquing and defending work at a professional standard.

Modules: Frontiers of Spoken English · Leading practice in Editing & revision · Mastering Academic writing

  • Spoken English: At expert level Spoken English is treated as a field of judgement: current practice, contested positions and the evidence behind each.
  • Hands-on: spoken english: Spoken English is examined at the frontier, with an emphasis on open problems, rigorous argument and decisions you can defend.
  • Common pitfalls in spoken english: At expert level Spoken English is treated as a field of judgement: current practice, contested positions and the evidence behind each.

Project: Write a professional-standard brief on Spoken English — argument, evidence, limitations — plus a plan for taking the work further.

Explaining English to someone else in plain language is the clearest signal that the Expert level has landed.

Once you have finished, the English path is a reasonable foundation for translation, teaching, writing and communication roles. Because the curriculum is generated and kept as a structured outline rather than fixed videos, you can revisit any module, regenerate the outline at a different depth, or save it to your library and work through it over weeks rather than in one sitting.
