[0:00]Yay. I'll start by telling you guys my story. What actually changes your English. So, first let me introduce myself. Obviously, I'm Tayana, Tayana Ortiz. You guys know me as Miss Honey. I've always taught English to online students from around the world. Since since I turned 18, so for 5 years now. What I noticed about most of my students and the same problem that they had was that they would study English for years. They would come to my classes and say, Teacher, I've been studying grammar and going to English classes for 5 to 10 years, and I still have trouble speaking. I can understand, but I can't speak. Um, that was always the issue. I don't know why I can't speak yet. And it's because you're not speaking. It's always I've always said speaking is the only way to speak. You can't speak if you don't speak. There's no other way to reach fluency. When you're learning to speak a new language, you're going to make mistakes, and it's the only way. And I, in my English lessons, have always applauded mistakes. So, this this particular student is very interesting because she didn't speak very much English. Um, but she still spoke all the time. She didn't know much English, but she would just speak and speak and speak to the point where she would make so many mistakes, and I would correct her every time. She would continue to make them, and I would continue to correct her. But instead of feeling down when she heard those mistakes, she would just keep talking. And I remember just after three months of speaking with her twice a week. And she improved faster than any other student that I've ever had. But it's because she wasn't scared of making mistakes. She went from level A2 to B1 in three months. the biggest problems my students would encounter were: not having a safe space to practice, feeling too shy or scared to start, not being able to find the motivation to join lessons and speak, and the biggest one - not having enough money to pay for weekly/daily speaking lessons. I've always loved teaching English because my students always felt so comfortable speaking with me. And they always told me how grateful they were to have found me, a very kind, fun, patient teacher who doesn't focus on grammar rules and homework. Someone who just focuses on speaking. I would just speak the entire lesson, and I would correct them, and I would connect with them. Because that connection made the conversation so much more comfortable. When I had my TikTok account, I started teaching online, um, but I realized sooner or later that there are so many of you and only one of me, and I can't teach all of you. I just don't have enough time. And that's exactly how my community came to be. Because I didn't just want another English course. I wanted a place where you would speak. All of these teachers, they sell courses. They say this course is going to help you learn English. You're going to learn English with this. Which might be true. You might learn English. But to speak English is very different than just learning. So if you want to speak English, you need to speak it. You need a safe space where you feel comfortable speaking, like my students had with me. A place that feels human, not like a classroom. A place where you don't feel judged or rushed or overwhelmed, where you just feel motivated to keep learning. So, I wanted to create a space where English learners could... have a safe space to practice, feel confident and comfortable to start, because it's hard to start, like I said. When you're not good at something, it's very difficult to be a beginner. to find the motivation to join lessons and speak, even when you're feeling unmotivated or tired. That's what this community is about, motivating each other. Posting your wins, your achievements, and sharing them with each other to keep inspiring others to do the same. And of course, I wanted them to be able to afford to pay. Speaking and learning is for everyone, this is for you, no matter where you're from, how much money you have, you belong here. The only way you will ever become fluent in English and get a higher salary and more job opportunities and travel wherever you dream in the world, make international friends, watch movies and series and YouTube videos in English, it's by speaking. So, I created just the place for you to do so. Because conversation clubs are the closest thing to real life. where you're not memorizing, you're using the language. You're not studying alone. You're interacting with real people. And this method works because it's very simple. Um, you speak, you make mistakes, you get corrected, and you improve. Speaking English brings lots of opportunities, and that's just the truth. And the question is not if it brings opportunities. It's whether you'll be ready or not. A place where you're surrounded by other English learners, teachers who guide you, correct you, and create a safe space for you to learn. Daily, weekly, and monthly dynamics that keep you motivated. And a place where speaking English is is exciting. It's not scary or boring. It's very exciting. And of course, like I said earlier, you would normally be paying $25 for a class. Say one class per week. In a month, that's $100. And in a year, that's $1,200. And yeah, that's very expensive. So now, let me show you guys this community that I have. Here in the community is where everybody interacts. This is where the motivation and um getting inspired by other learners happens. So everyone in the community posts in here almost daily. So we have tips. We have lots more to see here. Now inside of the classroom, here you're going to find all the valuable resources for you to practice your English with activities for each of my videos, and transcripts for you to translate into your own language, and the PDF, of course. Then we have the calendar. This is where we have all of our conversation clubs. So as you can see there's a lot. There will be more as more people join, but this is how many we have at the moment, which is, I'm pretty sure it's 18 conversation clubs per week. So this is where you practice speaking with teachers and other English learners from around the world. And there's lots of different teachers, lots of different topics, and it's a really fun place to be. Here. All right. So these are the prices for the English community that I am about to give you access to. One quick note about pricing: if you choose the annual plan, it comes with a 50% or sorry, 57% discount compared to the monthly plan. So yeah, basically you're paying for 4 months, but getting 12. This 57% discount equals to $16 per month, which is so much better and so much cheaper than what we were mentioning before. for a normal regular speaking lesson with a teacher weekly, once per week, that ends up being $1,200 US per year. And for this one, $199 is just a steal for starting to speak English. You get all the resources unlocked instantly, and everything in the monthly plan, but with the best price for committed learners.

[10:01]Also with the annual plan, you get a bonus. Also, the platform automatically adds VAT or local taxes for international members, depending on your country. So just be sure to check this before you pay the full price, check how much it adds in taxes for you. And once you join, remember your price stays locked forever, as long as you remain a member. So every time I launch, the price will go up. It will keep going up every time I launch, but if you join now, your price stays locked. So, I know I have my community is from all around the world. So I know you guys need a little look at another price that isn't US dollars. You can try it out for a month, and if you don't like it, you can leave. Even if you don't like it, $39 is something that you would pay for one or two lessons with an English teacher. Now this is what you pay for a full month of English speaking clubs. Are they by levels? So no, the conversation clubs are not by levels because in real life you have English conversations with people who have different levels than you. So speaking to someone with a higher level is going to improve your English, but also, it's going to help the person with a higher level of English to help you. I don't want to make mistake, but it is the only way. That's right, it is the only way. Ooh, welcome guys. Let me say hi to you. Okay. Welcome, I Han. You joined for a full year. Welcome, welcome.

So I'll talk to all the new members who are joining this week, um on Sunday, April 26th. Hey. It's it's very. And everybody's so sweet guys. I swear you're going to love them. Amazing. And what these conversation clubs are just places to connect and make friends and learn and I absolutely love them. Itzel, Paola, Yarimana. Bienvenidos. Welcome, welcome.
