was made for activation and skilll development
You already know English.
You just do not use it freely yet.
Alex Academy exists for one reason: to help adults activate the English they already understand and start using it with confidence in real life.
Not for exams.
Not for perfect grammar.
For work, travel, conversations, and everyday situations where English matters.
Most adults who come to Alex Academy say the same things:
“I understand English, but I freeze when I speak.”
“I know the words, but they do not come out.”
“I am afraid of mistakes.”
“I learned English at school, but it never became usable.”
This is not a lack of knowledge.
This is a lack of activation.
Years of traditional learning train people to recognise English, not to produce it.
Recognition feels safe. Speaking feels risky.
So people wait to be ready. They wait to be perfect.
And they stay silent.
I've been teaching English and working as an interpreter since 1989. English is my second language.
I've studied and used multiple languages, including Russian, French, German, Swedish, Latin, and Italian.
I also struggled while learning: I learned English under pressure, correction, and fear.
I chased perfection.
I sounded “correct” but unnatural.
I understood everything, yet hesitated to speak when it mattered.
Later, real life taught me a hard truth: perfect English that you cannot use is useless.
That realisation changed how I learn and how I teach.
Language is a skill, not a subject.
Skills develop through use, not explanation.
Confidence comes from repetition, not rules.
Fluency grows in low-pressure environments, not under constant correction.
Children do not wait to be ready. They speak first. They improve while using the language.
Adults can do the same, if the method respects how the brain actually works.
You do not start from zero.
You start from what you already know (even if it's just a little).
The work is structured, but not overwhelming.
The practice is regular, but realistic.
Mistakes are normal and expected.
You listen.
You repeat.
You speak.
You build automatic responses.
No memorising lists that stay passive.
No pressure to be perfect before opening your mouth.
Alex Academy is for adults, usually 30+, who:
• Understand English but hesitate to speak
• Feel blocked by fear or perfectionism
• Learned English years ago and feel “rusty”
• Need English for work, travel, or daily communication
• Want fluency, not endless studying
Age is not a limitation. In many cases, it is an advantage.
Adult brains build stronger connections when learning is consistent and meaningful.
At Alex Academy you will find:
• Courses designed to activate passive English
• Speaking sessions without pressure or constant correction
• Daily routines that fit real adult lives
• Free resources to help you start immediately
• A learning environment built on trust and support
You will not be pushed to learn “everything”.
You will be guided to use what matters.
The goal is simple:
To help you speak English naturally, confidently, and without fear.
Not someday.
Not after another course.
Now.
You already have more English than you think.
You proved that by reading this page.
The next step is not learning more.
It is using what you already have.
And I can help you do exactly that.
