What makes it different

Four things no one else offers together

01
Personal speaking feedback — from a real human
Every speaking lesson includes a practice prompt. You record your response, send it via Voxer, and receive individual audio feedback from Aaron — a certified CELPIP trainer — within 48 hours. No AI scoring. No generic tips. Real ears, real feedback.
02
Built for your schedule, not the other way around
Every other program with real coaching requires you to show up at a fixed time. This program is designed around the reality of working two jobs and a busy life. Everything is available on your schedule — no classes to reschedule, no sessions to miss.
03
A clear 3-month roadmap — not just content
Most self-study options give you material but no direction. This program includes a structured week-by-week schedule so you always know exactly what to work on. No guessing. No wasted time on the wrong things.
04
A coach you already know and trust
Aaron has been helping CELPIP candidates through his podcast for over two years. You’re not buying access to a faceless tutoring company — you’re working directly with the same certified trainer whose advice you’ve already been following.

The honest bottom line

What you’re actually paying for

The cheap options ($200–400) give you a classroom experience with no personal feedback — you’re one of 10 to 15 students and nobody is listening to your speaking and responding to you specifically.

The options that do include personal feedback from a certified trainer start at $875 and go well past $1,000 — and they all require you to show up on their schedule.

This program delivers certified coaching and personal speaking feedback at group class prices, designed around the life you’re actually living.
