About this listen

Are Duolingo and Rosetta Stone failing you?

Are you having trouble grasping the complicated rules of the English language?

Do you want to expand your vocabulary and be able to describe things using more than just one or two words on rotation?

When it comes to learning a new language, studies have actually found that memorizing words doesn't work in the long term.

But then, why does the traditional education system still follow this gut-wrenching pattern of memorizing words when it only sets students up for failure?

As we keep looking for an answer to that question, it’s time for you to try a new approach - one that will finally stick...

In The No-BS Guide to English Vocabulary and Effective Communication, you'll discover:

  • How you can develop your vocabulary to feel confident in your speech
  • How to memorize words without memorizing them
  • PLIAR framework - the golden blueprint for learning new words that you can implement and master for any language
  • The secret behind long-term retention of vocabulary
  • Mistakes to avoid while writing and speaking, allowing you to sound like a native English speaker
  • How to communicate better and deliver proper messages
  • An interactive tone of voice that makes you feel like you're talking to a real person, further boosting your learning
  • Bonus: a quiz to determine your current English level
  • And so much more...

Vocabulary can be developed and improved. It's not something you're born with.

Just because traditional methods didn’t work for you, it doesn’t mean you should give up. Everyone learns differently, and sometimes all it takes is discovering that one special tool to experience a major breakthrough.

By far the best audiobook on vocabulary out there

I was a little skeptical when I was buying this book as it is fairly new and not a tested product, but I decided to go with it anyway. I went over the entire audiobook (It is really well structured by the way) and I have to say this -

What AMAZING content!

The authors teach us the right way to go about building a stupendous vocabulary. The book is equipped with a step-by-step plan and routine to carry out all of the lessons. The pronunciation part has some really cool tricks and hacks. I never knew spellings would be so easy to crack down!

The book is full of knowledgeable advice and it definitely looks like the authors know what they are talking about. I am glad I went for it.

I also loved the narration as it was very clear and had proper pauses when needed. This is my first audiobook and I'm already in love with them.

The book also has a bonus section on fluency and communication. Interesting stuff there too. The video links were really helpful. Just so so much condensed information which is easy to understand too. Loved it. If you are confused as to which audiobook you should go for, then, without a doubt, go for this one. You won't to disappoint a bit.

Hope to see many more books in the ENG Wizards series...

The vocabulary blueprint is solid

Got the audiobook during the pre-launch phase. Went through it a couple of times. The weekly vocabulary plan is actually a great strategy to steadily learn words, retain them and use them in day-to-day conversations. Awesome listen. Thumbs up all the way!

Definitely has something special to it

I have tried a ton of vocabulary guides and this is the one I would recommend to anyone who wants to master the language. Fun and informative at the same time.

Perfectly laid out pathway

Everything inside this guide is so clearly explained (with proper action steps) that even a 5th grader can understand it. Kudos to the entire production team from the authors to the narrator. Well done.

A real confidence booster

The course itself is engaging and useful. Extremely well condensed and organised. So much content in 3 hours. I learnt so much more than school.

A long and unordered list of words. Useless

The spelling of the words is not given. It makes this book useless as an audio book. This list of words is not ordered by theme. Though, it is very difficult to get the content even after having listened each part several times attentively. Maybe this content is valuable, the way it is unorganized makes it impossible to reach.

This is the vocabulary guide you need

No fluff. Very effective indeed. The narration is professional and this feels like a well thoughtout course. This is the book many of you have been looking for. I loved it and I will be going through it a couple more times.

What's great is that it isn't overwhelming at all. You surely will have information to take away from it. This is what I was looking for - straight to the point and simple to understand. Great product again.
