It might be cold and wet where you are, but that's just another excuse to knuckle down (=seriously apply yourself) to an English challenge.
Ready? I hope so.
Starting on October 13th, we are relaunching our most popular challenge, the "30 for 30" Challenge.
Together, we’ll practise, reflect, and stretch our English in new directions — one question at a time.
What’s the challenge all about?
Every day for 30 days, you’ll get a thought-provoking question.
Your task? Respond to it in written, audio, or video form.
Each response should take you no more than 30 minutes — but by the end of the month, you’ll have built a habit of using English every single day.
And if you complete the challenge…you’ll win a prize: a free 30-minute 1:1 lesson with me (Alastair).
Why a “30 for 30” Challenge?
Because most learners don’t struggle with knowing English — they struggle with using it.
This challenge is designed to push you to:
🗣️ Use English every day – Build a powerful daily habit that actually sticks.
💡 Think in English – Explore creative and meaningful questions, not textbook drills.
🎧 Improve in every skill – Respond in writing, speaking, or video — and practise the skills you need most.
🤖 Get AI feedback – Use our AI writing assistant (included for free) to sharpen your English instantly.
🌍 Connect with others – Share your answers with learners from 100+ countries who are on the same journey.
When does it start?
🗓️ Challenge dates: Monday, October 13th – Tuesday, November 11th
🕛 Registration deadline: Midnight, Sunday, October 12th
You’ll also have lifetime access to the challenge materials, so you can go through everything at your own pace—even after the challenge ends.
Who is this challenge for?
This challenge is perfect if:
✅ You want to build a daily English habit
✅ You like learning through creative, meaningful tasks
✅ You want to practise not just writing, but also speaking and video
✅ You feel motivated by a clear goal (and a prize at the end!)
✅ You’d like to join a supportive, global community of learners
Do I need to share anything?
Yes — but only inside the challenge space.
You’ll post your daily answers (in writing, audio, or video). Other challenge participants can see them, but this is a private, supportive group — not public sharing.

- Built a habit of daily English use
- Learned how to express yourself more clearly and naturally
- Joined a global group of curious learners doing the same thing
