New courses: Lawyer's English Language, and International Legal English

By Di on Gennaio 5 2022

We are excited to announce the addition of two new courses to learn English for law.

Legal English is very different from general English. The vocabulary is often centuries old and only used in legal settings today. Even the grammar can be different. If you are a lawyer or law student working in English, we now have two courses that will give you the language you need:

Price increase from April 1st, 2021

By Matthew on Marzo 24 2021

Over the past 4 years, The English Farm has maintained consistent pricing. However, there are significant costs to hiring the best teachers and creating the best online learning space. 

Therefore, The English Farm will increase prices from April 1st. 

We are investing in a number of exciting developments. We are updating our site to be faster and easier to use, producing tools to help you learn better, introducing new courses and learning exercises, and improving training for our teachers. 

More new teachers coming soon

By Matthew on Marzo 10 2021

Hi everyone,

Thanks for using The English Farm. We know that lessons are difficult to find these days, especially at short notice. We recommend that you do your best to book ahead of time where you can, and if you're unable to make a lesson, please cancel as soon as possible to free up the slot for someone else. We have also asked our teachers to add as many slots as they can to meet the demand.

Happy February to you all! In the northern hemisphere, February is the month when you start to notice the sun coming back to the land. It's no longer dark at 3–4pm. I'm guessing that in the southern hemisphere, you're beginning to feel fall in the air. A month of transition no matter where you live, including here at The English Farm.
