Hi! I'm Stefanie, The English Coach. 

You and I both know...

  • Traditional English classes don't make you fluent.
  • If you don't practice, you don't improve.
  • Grammar books don't teach real communication skills.
  • Fluency is worthless if you don't feel confident.

That's why I created English Full:Time...

I used to hate my hair. It was never pretty enough, thick enough, long enough, or straight enough. And it was always too flat. I used to have a super complicated hair styling routine that involved multiple hair products, blow drying, straightening, and teasing my hair to give it more volume. I wanted to look like the girls in the magazines. But Ren never cared for that look. He always told me he preferred my natural wavy hair. But I never listened... until recently. Finally I started looking for ways to enhance the natural wave that my hair already has. The result? I spend MUCH less time on my hair, it’s wavier than ever, and has lots of natural volume... and I LOVE it. I have finally embraced my hair’s natural texture, and I’m no longer trying to fight it. I thanked Ren recently for helping me make this breakthrough, and his response was, “sometimes we don’t realize what we have.” So true!! We are so critical of ourselves. While you’re there admiring what someone else has, people are there admitting that very thing about YOU. Remember this the next time you try to put down your English. As I always say, you’re way better than you think you are, and it’s time for you to embrace how far you’ve come. ❤️
Someone sent me this picture via direct message, but I don’t remember who it was. I love seeing photos of how you study English with my videos, but sending them directly isn’t a good idea because... . ❌ I get lots of messages every day, so I might not see your photo ❌ Even if I take a screenshot, I never remember who sent the photo ❌It’s not easy to share your photo and tag you on my account so other people can see it, too . Let’s try something else instead...👇🏼 . When you want me to see your pictures and posts in English, tag my account on the photo using @theenglishcoach Then, use hashtag #englishfulltime in the description . This will create a collection of photos that are easy to access, PLUS everyone in our community will be able to see them, too! This means... . ✅ I will be able to see all your posts in English and know YOU posted them ✅ I can easily feature YOUR photos on my account and tag you to give you credit ✅ YOU can search the #englishfulltime hashtag or the posts I’m tagged in to meet and practice English with awesome people from our community! . Does this sound like something you want to try? Comment below if you accept this challenge! 😉🙌🏼
Lots of people say you know you’re fluent in English when you “dream in English.” Do you agree? I don’t... only because I once had a dream in Russian and I don’t even speak Russian 😅 But, also because I’m fluent in Spanish yet I NEVER dream in Spanish. So, what are your thoughts on this? 🤔
In English we say, “if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.” Anything that’s over-hyped is probably a downright lie. No, you won’t get fluent in 2 months. No, that course won’t be the ONLY thing you need to master English. And, sorry, there’s no “secret” that will easily eliminate your accent in just 5 minutes. Anyone who gets good at anything’s has spent hours, days, and YEARS obsessing over, studying, and practicing that skill. Success takes work— plain and simple. Who else is tired of English schools, programs, courses & teachers promising things they can’t deliver? Enough is enough. It makes me sad that so many people are being lied to, and then you’re left feeling inadequate and incompetent when you don’t “measure up.” Just know I’ll never lie to you like that... because you deserve the truth, and you’ll be able to accomplish so much more with it. ❤️
I was shopping yesterday and I found a shirt that I kinda liked. A couple minutes later, I found the exact same one, only it had shorter sleeves. Immediately I thought, “wow, looks like these two were cut from the same cloth!” I was thinking of it in the literal sense, but then I remembered that that phrase is actually a really popular idiom in English. We use it when two people are very similar. Like, “my best friend and I are so alike! We’re basically cut from the same cloth.” Did you know this idiom already? Tell me in the comments 😉🙌🏼
So, what do you think of my new shirt? 😜
