00:00:00.120 --> 00:00:06.760
My name is Lilia Reyes. I joined the Academy 
five months ago. And the reason I joined is  

00:00:06.760 --> 00:00:14.360
because I live in the U.S. I've been here 
for 25 years and people would still ask  

00:00:14.360 --> 00:00:22.160
me to repeat after myself or they would 
correct me. So that was discouraging.  

00:00:22.160 --> 00:00:29.960
And - It was like, "when am I going to learn 
this language, isn't 25 years enough?"
 

00:00:30.880 --> 00:00:39.720
So, I've been studying on my own throughout 
these years - all different resources,  

00:00:39.720 --> 00:00:44.040
including YouTube.
I follow different teachers  

00:00:44.040 --> 00:00:52.120
on YouTube and that's how I found Rachel. And 
right away, I realized that, she goes far and  

00:00:52.120 --> 00:00:58.840
beyond in detail with her videos.
So, she talks about some things that I've  

00:00:58.840 --> 00:01:08.160
never heard about before, like placement. 
And things that I heard before about like,  

00:01:08.160 --> 00:01:16.800
rhythm, intonation, linking. She explains 
it in a way that is understandable.
 

00:01:16.800 --> 00:01:25.000
The Academy is organized in a way that you can go 
on your own pace. If you're a hard working student  

00:01:25.000 --> 00:01:32.440
and if you're committed to perfecting your - 
your English, this is the place to be.
 

00:01:32.440 --> 00:01:38.160
They have all the resources. I wouldn't say 
there's only one thing that works - because  

00:01:38.160 --> 00:01:44.920
it's like, it's like a big puzzle.
All pieces come together to make a great course.  

00:01:44.920 --> 00:01:55.600
And, it is possible to pursue for your - to 
train more - speaking the language nicely.
 

00:01:55.600 --> 00:01:59.840
I encourage everyone to join the 
Academy because, it works.
 

00:02:01.360 --> 00:02:13.560
It's a great method. They offer you teachers 
feedback. They have this, what they call  

00:02:14.080 --> 00:02:20.200
"Play it, Say it" method, which works great. And 
with that method, you don't need a teacher.
 

00:02:20.200 --> 00:02:27.280
I know that some people are studying in another 
country - in different countries and you don't  

00:02:27.280 --> 00:02:33.360
have someone on your side to ask a question.
So, that's why they made these Drop-in Hours. The  

00:02:33.360 --> 00:02:39.360
"Play it, Say it" method, you can try it. Then, 
you study your module and then you'd write down  

00:02:39.360 --> 00:02:44.680
your questions and for the Drop-in hour you bring 
up those questions. Then you'll be one-on-one  

00:02:44.680 --> 00:02:55.520
with the teacher to answer that question.
I encourage everyone to join the Academy.
 

00:02:55.520 --> 00:02:59.840
I think that if you invest in 
yourself. You invest in your education,  

00:03:00.480 --> 00:03:03.960
you're investing in your future.
You can dream big and yes,  

00:03:03.960 --> 00:03:13.600
it is possible to - to finally go get in 
the level of being that you want.
 

00:03:13.600 --> 00:03:18.240
I highly recommend this Academy. 
Simply, because it works.
