My final message of 2018

January 1, 2019 by Mr. Vig

As the sun sets over a cloudy America, I wish you and your family a very happy, healthy and wealthy 2019.

I thank you for your attention and your trust. I hope my lessons and motivation made your journey with English at least a small bit easier.

And this time next year, as you think back to today, may we both be to say, “I am wiser now than I was then.” Read More >

What do you say to an American on Christmas?

December 28, 2018 by Mr. Vig

Did you know that some people in America have stopped saying “Merry Christmas?”

If your English is “too simple” .. here’s a solution

December 6, 2018 by Mr. Vig

This is my parents’ backyard in Virginia.

Behind the barn and the mist, that’s Castleton Mountain.

These aren’t the Alps or the Rockies, so you won’t exactly need a Sherpa or an oxygen tank to get to the top. Read More >

A question from a student and why I told him it’s a bad idea

November 14, 2018 by Mr. Vig

Here’s a question I got from Jan:
Good evening Mr. Vig, I am writing to you to find the best way how to prepare for the FCE exam which I will take in 15th December 2018. It will be lovely if you can help me find a person who can help me.
And my answer:
Hi Jan,
I’m not a big fan of certificates (unless you need one to get into university or apply for a job).
I’ve prepared many students to take the tests, and it was almost always a mistake.
You can read why here: https://mrvig.com/5-reasons-why-you-dont-need-another-certificate/
