  • These days Elena Mutonono is an experienced business coach who helps online English teachers to gain independence and control over their own careers, but Elena's journey started as a learner of English herself. In this conversation I ask Elena about how she learned English, making the step to becoming an English teacher, then teacher trainer and what challenges online English teachers face when trying to work in a crowded and demanding job market.

    I am from Ukraine and I found the whole monologue of Helena amazing touching and inspiring. I almost cry sometimes, she made incredible progress and the way she tells about is so relevant.
    Thank you both for this podcast ❤

    Wow, Elena was one of my English teachers in the American college in Crimea☺️👍 She taught phonetics and we loved her lessons and herself as a teacher! I still have very warm feelings about her as a teacher 😃 I stumbled on this episode on Spotify and was quite surprised ha ha. Elena and Luke, hello from the UK, Liverpool 😊

    What an episode, Luke!
    I felt emotionally connected to her experiences on learning English. I loved her explaining the relation between reading music and reading words. She has done an extraordinary journey through language. As always, Thanks Luke!

    I would like to speak English like Elena. I'm originally from Russia, but I started studying English seriously when I moved to the USA 20 years ago. I was 44. At an advanced age, it is very difficult to switch to a new language, because the memory “refuses” to remember a large amount of new information.

      Hello, I'm from Morroco, I'm 39 years old, I just started learn language, don't give up, you have environnenent that you can practice your language with any one, you are in U.S you can improve any time just not tell the negativity to yourself, my native language is Arabic I'm so far with English but thos moments in my work I need foreing language for i can continue in my work, I started learning by obligation but I also started like this language . I don't know whay our society and parents didn't mention that learning languages can open your mind and a lot the door to find opportunities and can contact ather peopele in ather countries

    Luke, thanks a lot for another one great episode! If I may ask, did you hear any accent in Elena's speech? It seems that her pronunciation is mostly american, but some words come with slight russian/slavic accent. It would be interesting to know your opinion as a native english speaker. In any case, I think Elena did a fantastic job! Hats off!

    Don't know where to leave a comment, so I'll leave it under the latest video. Apparently, this Advanced English Summit has a limit of 100 people on Zoom, and even though I tried to join on time, in fact, before the scheduled time, I was not able to get through. I was really looking forward to this thing, so I feel a bit disappointed. So, I guess, tomorrow I'll start joining 30 minutes in advance and I wanted to give a heads up to my fellow LEPsters out there. I know it's a free summit, so we get what we paid for, but I think 100 is a ridiculously low number. I think the organisers could afford 200 euros to upgrade their account or maybe find somebody who already has one.
