I personally endorse it completely. I grabbed all AJ's audio courses and suddenly my improvement went up.
It has truly helped me on a daily basis to overcome  English struggles. It will also help you. Keep in mind every day practice is a must.

Make sure you want to raise, develop your own speech performance. Get it yourself. Try it yourself.

The truth will come out.

My Effortless English story is amazing! Because although I am an English teacher, I wasn’t fluent in English and felt I was not confident. I can tell you that after about six or seven months with Effortless English my English INCREASED a lot.

I couldn’t stop listening to the powerful lessons. I became addicted to the lessons. I’ve been doing what AJ asks me to do every day and every month. Now I feel more confident and I run an English school in Brazil. With Effortless English my career went up very fast. I met more people on the internet.  I can understand native speakers easily, watch movies, etc, it’s much better now. It’s like the doors of the world opened wide to me. And now, I just have to thank AJ Hoge for all the valuable information he has shared with me through the VIP program.

I started learning English when I was 9. At schools I had a lot of English tests and all of them were grammar tests. Our teachers always told us: “Grammar is the key to learn E”. I saw my friends who knew more English Grammar rules and got high mark in English. Other people said they were good English learners. I thought: “Oh. That’s right. I am going to learn all of the English grammar rules and
lots of vocabulary and then I will be a good English learner”.

I thought that learning English meant grammar rules + vocabulary. I started learning E grammar and new words. I bought lots of English grammar books and did most of the tests in those books. I considered those book as my treasures. I tried to remember lots of vocabulary.  I spent 7 hours each day trying to learn grammar rules and vocabulary by heart. It worked. I got higher English marks. I was happy and I thought that I had found the true way to learn English.

When I was a second year student at my university, I realized I needed to speak E well if I wanted to get a good job. I took part in an English class where I had chances to speak to English native speakers.  That was the first time I had spoken to an English native speaker. I felt very confident. I knew lots of grammar rules and vocabulary. But I was shocked. When an Australian girl asked me:

– How old are you?

I didn’t understand. I said:

– sorry.

She repeated:

– How old are you ?

I still couldn’t understand her. I started to feel worried but I tried to say:

– Again, please!

I looked at her face. She seemed to not understand why I couldn’t understand her but she still asked me again:

– How old are you?

I felt anxiety. What did she say? I had never known anything like that. “What is this ?” I asked myself. I wanted her to write it out but I didn’t know how to say it.  I thought about grammar rules, the present tense and English linguistics but I could not say anything.

Finally, I gave her a paper and a pen. Luckily she understood what I wanted.

She wrote it out: “ HOW OLD ARE YOU ?, WHAT IS YOUR AGE?”

Oh my God. It was a super simple sentence. Why couldn’t I understand it? I was hard to believe. When she spoke, she always connected words. It was normal but at that time I couldn’t listen and understand. It was strange to me. Then she asked me more questions but I didn’t understand them either. When she talked to other English speakers  I tried to listen but I couldn’t understand any thing. She used slang, idioms and all of them were very strange to me.

I came back home. I felt depressed. When I saw English papers in my house, I was very angry. I snatched those papers and tore them like a crazy person. I tore all my grammar books, threw them everywhere in my room and cried very much. I had a terrible headache. I felt sad, tired, bored. I flung myself down on my bed, cried..cried and then I fell asleep without eating my dinner.

Next day, I got up and decided to go out. I visited my old friend. We had not met for 4 months. I told her about my last terrible day and said that I would not learn E any more. May be it was too hard for me. I could not speak E well, ever.

She smiled and said:

– I know a method to learn English without learning grammar. We can learn English effortlessly. It is very exciting and effective. It is Effortless English. I have followed it for 2 months and my English skills have improved a lot.

– Really? It’s hard to believe what you say.

– OK. Don’t trust me. Just try it and you will be surprised.

Then she showed me the 7 rules to speak E fluently. I was curious and then I tried it. Effortless English was the opposite of all that I had known. It was exciting and practical.  I found that I had had a bad method to learn English when I started. Something was wrong with my method at the beginning. Thankfully, I found Effortless English. It helped me a lot.

I have been learning Effortless English since last year. I have improved my English speaking and I know I can now achieve bigger succees. This is the best English program that I know. With Effortless English we don’t take tests, we do not worry about grammar rules, don’t try to remember long lists of vocabulary.

We speak E well without worrying about any of them. AJ is the best teacher but I feel he is my best friend also. He is a friendly teacher. I am inspired by him to learn English.

In the past, I learned E 7 hours each day but I felt tired. I tried to remember lots of grammar rules and words but after a short time, I forgot most of them. I thought that I knew a lot of grammar rules and vocabulary but in fact I didn’t understand anything. I knew them but I couldn’t use them easily.

Effortless English is different. I learn, I understand and I can use what I learn. It changes all parts of my life. AJ teaches me how to speak English confidently and how to be a better person.

After 5 months, I can listen to English better and speak more fluently. I feel more confident when I speak to foreigners. My life changed. I changed my behaviour. I help other people to change their methods and to be a leader.

3 months ago I got a scholarship at my English center. Now, English is like a game and I am an addict. Fantastic. Learning Effortless English is one of the best choices in my life.

I have been learning Effortless English for 5 months and got success. I will continue to follow through and have a better life and bigger success. Thank you AJ. You gave me wonderful things!

I’m Georgiana from Spain and I’m an English teacher.  I teach English one on one via Skype and A.J. Hoge is a great inspiration. 

A.J. is a great leader and someone who inspires me to improve on personal and professional grounds.  I am part of the VIP and Business program and I am amazed by how many interesting things I get to learn every day.  The Effortless English Club is the best place to learn English. It’s also the best way to meet new amazing people from all over the globe and to get your everyday motivation and positive energy.

I studied at a school in my Country where most of the time I was forced to speak Italian and the rest of the time to do boring written exercises I hated.

I struggled to learn English using that method for at least 5 years but yet was not even able to say a word in English.

I was getting depressed, then I made the decision to search the Internet for something that could boost my speaking skills.

About one year ago I ran into AJ’s 7 rules for the very first time.  At first I was shocked by his innovative approach. At that time I was about to be fired because of a reduction policy, but after just 6 months of deep learning I applied for an internal interview in English. Guess what? I passed the test and that interview was a success!!!

I am currently working in an International environment because my Company is a multinational.

Effortless English has changed my approach to life both personally and professionally. Now I feel confident and strong when I speak, and my comprehension abilities  have increased massively.

Thank you Effortless English.

I was majoring in English in college and although I was getting pretty good grades on grammar and vocabulary tests, I soon realized I could not understand everyday English. Out of all the different classes I had only one that was dedicated to listening. Ironically, most students ditched that class thinking it was a waste of time — they wanted to study grammar and vocabulary the old way. At that stage I had been studying English for over 10 years, and yet I could only understand native speakers if they spoke very slowly and used easy vocabulary.

Needless to say, that was really frustrating. The message was clear. I was going to have to take action and look for better ways to improve my English.

One day, I came across A.J.’s podcast. I figured I would listen to a few episodes and I quickly got hooked. His ideas were different but they made a lot of sense. A few months later I eventually decided to grab a copy of the Original Course. I listened to the lessons at least 5 days a week for several months. I can’t say I kept track, but I know I never got bored. Then Learn Real English came out, and I really loved the concept too. I kept using both courses and it felt like I’d finally found the missing link.

Several years later, I can safely say that speaking English has become as effortless as speaking French. More importantly, I have learned so many great ideas and concepts that I use every day. Oh and did I mention our amazing community? There are truly great members who are always there to support you, and encourage you no matter what.

If you’ve always wanted to speak English fluently, then do yourself a favor, drop those textbooks and join us. You won’t regret it.

I am 66. “Not, so old, 66.” I traveled around Australia, despite not speaking English, because I was speaking always my own language. This was a big problem.

Now, I go to bed and get up in the morning with AJ Hoge. I believe after half year can I fluently speak English.  I would like to understand the histories of the buildings, what tour guides say, wherever I visit in the world or here in Australia. This is my important aim.

Above and beyond I would like to enjoy watching TV in English.

I’m a longtime member. I must have joined back in 2007 or so, if I remember correctly.
I’d recommend the EE system to anyone looking to improve their English without spending hours and hours trying to make sense of grammar rules and technical terms that can only be understood once you have developed a FEEL FOR CORRECTNESS. It’s also a great community, unlike on other forums and sites where people spend their time calling each other names and making stupid remarks.
Obviously, this is not a course for total beginners. If you don’t understand ANY English, or if you’re not familiar with our alphabet, you might want to use other materials first, but be sure to come back and check out EE when you’re a little more advanced, you won’t regret it.

My dear friend I know that you can have some doubt, at the beginning it’s normal.  I had them too! LOOOTS of doubts, because there are tons of bad courses, tons of useless rules and exercises that make you waste your money, time and energy and don’t teach you anything!

And those were my feelings when searching on the web for something new and powerful for improving my English.   I found AJ and his Effortless English System! I tried his lessons and I was amazed! So completely fascinated by the way this great teacher and coach “plays” with English-- making it intuitive, nice, and pleasurable to listen, to practice, to keep with you in every moment of the day!

Yes AJ has become my best friend! I love his lessons and I listen to him every day! Not because I want to “STUDY” 😛 just because I enjoy listening to all the great and empowering topics he chooses. And just having a great time with him and his lessons it happened, almost by chance that I’ve also learned English. Haha… Now I can understand native speakers even when they talk fast, or have strange accents. I can speak fast and with no effort even to native speakers. I watch movies in English with no subtitles, and most of all, I enjoy speaking English so much that I want English to become my “first” language! What to say? AJ is a special teacher, coach and leader, and I’ve been so LUCKY to meet him on the web!

My adventure with Efforltes English is very short.  I had been all the time in the “Comfort Zone”. What does it mean? I had been learning (with shorter or longer breaks) English since primary school (more than 20 years!!!). I hadn’t used English in practice. I hadn't had to. I was still angry at myself because I hadn’t had any progress.

I’ve been still (since my final exams and studies) on the same intermediate level. I was terrified when I heard somebody speaking English. I could understand just a few words from the whole conversation.

This year my boss said that I would take a part in business meeting in Finland. When I heard it I was shocked. But this information was for me a big kick to do something with my English. I started conversations with a native speaker. She recommended to me to listen to original movies in English because it’s the best way to improve speaking and listening. 

Fortunately, my husband found some of AJ’s movies on youtube. Through this way I found the Effortless English website.   I decided to become a VIP member. 

I’ve been listening to AJ’s lessons regularly.  Lessons help me to find motivation. Now I’m sure that I want to continue learning with the VIP Program. Of course, miracles didn’t happen. I still have some problems with vocabulary. BUT I SEE PROGRESS. I SEE THAT SOMETHING HAS CHANGED. I don’t feel “the chains” that had been blocking my development, improvement. With AJ’s lessons I will be able to speak and understand better.

Hello, my name is Ulla! Since I joined the VIP Effortless English programme I have made a lot of progress in my speaking and understanding spoken English. I’m 77 years old, and my first thought was: Why can’t older people learn or improve something new? What can I improve or learn? Why not freshen my sleeping English! I joined a conversation class and it was rather good, but not that much improvement for me. I joined a traditional English class with lots of grammar and vocabulary, that was really bad, no progress for me.

I searched for English programs on the Internet and I found the wonderful VIP Effortless English.  It became my key to confident speaking. It is so exciting getting new lessons every month and a lot of other things from A J Hoge! It is incredible! The more I listened the more I understood and the more I could speak. After five months, when my friends from Arizona visited us, I spoke fluently! But I have a lot more to learn. English is a very good language, you can use it everywhere on the globe. It is so positive for me, I could improve it despite my age!!! Now I’m not afraid or shy when I speak English! It has change my life in a highly positive way! I love VIP Effortless English and the community of members! I will continue to improve my English in VIP Effortless English programs! Thank you!

I always was looking for ways to improve my English. Step by step I got a lot of frustrations and it was terrible. I really wanted to speak fluently, easily and automatically. But… I couldn’t. Once I found a short video lesson about 7 easy rules of learning English, and it was interesting.

I decided to start learning by this method and today, after six months,  I achieved much better results than before. I have become more confident when I speak. I work in a big international company and use English every day. I’m happy, I can speak easily with everyone in our large network and have no fear.
All of these phrases and words comes into my mind automatically.

You know, every day in the morning when I have a bath I’m standing under the shower and speak with myself loudly. My wife ask me, hey man what are you doing, is there anybody else you speak with? I answer, no darling, it’s AJ’s phrases comes into my mind, like “get rid of them” or “don’t worry Heva” )).
Now I clearly understand why with Effortless English I got a much better result.  Because all of the E.E. teachers are exciting speakers and have a lot of positive energy and emotions.
Also I have a chance to meet with lots of interesting people around the world.
Finally, I recommend Effortless English for everybody, it’s a great opportunity to achieve success by learning English and listening to different useful stories and coaching lessons.

Hello! Let me share my experience with Effortless English with you. Two years ago I was about to go to Canada to visit my boyfriend and stay for many months. The idea of being in a different country where people speak English made me start looking for some options how to achieve a good level of this language.

I took out my old textbooks from school and began reading short conversations, repeating..but I could not hear because it was just a text. I also started filling out workbooks, browsing through my old exercise books with grammar explanations… It was all about memorizing grammar. It frustrated me. Then I went on the internet and typed some words into Google (like how to improve English, learn English at home or like that). This way I came across webpage Effortless English where I read about this program.   I read lots of positive reviews from many people. I did not wait any longer and signed up for the program.

I fell in love with A. J. Hoge’s English 🙂 because I could understand him very well.   I wanted to know and learn more and more. Then I started receiving lesson sets. Meanwhile I came to Canada and I started combining 2 things: listening to lessons (stories) and practicing in a real conversation.

I am living with Effortless English every day. First of all, it’s not about explaining grammar rules, but way more focused on phrases, idioms, combinations of words that make sense. That’s a big difference compared to old school methods. Since I arrived in CA I’ve been working in the childcare field where I need to talk a lot to kids. They need many explanations, stories, you learn from them, they learn from you.

Eff. English has been helping me understand better things from language I hear while working.   It has happened to me many times that heard someone’s talk using phrases or idioms which I wouldn’t understand by translating word by word. Thanks to Eff. English I know what it means! I remember the day when my employer told me that I had improved my English a lot. Also other people – Canadians told me the same. I recommended this method to my friends here. Of course we have to combine it with listening to/watching TV news, movies, reading….I can say that I feel more confident about speaking.

I like reading comments of other VIP members that are very encouraging and give me some inspiration for my life.

I am very grateful for discovering the Effortless English program, A.J., Kristin and Joe, you guys are great!!

On the past February, I started training with AJ and since then I’ve been impressed receiving my weekly course and lots of extra goodies which help me to become successful one day.

No complaints but daily happiness and positive thoughts by hearing AJ’s voice motivates me to go forward everyday. Each lesson gives the joy for listening a hundred times and become little by little part of me.

My English comprehension is growing and I feel more confident on expressing myself. I just need to work hard with an always positive attitude and why not using all AJ’s secrets tools.

Thank you for being my coach.

It is my pleasure to share with you reasons why I think that the program is the best.
