Free Masterclass

Why Spoken English Sounds Different from What You’ve Learned.

One live session, in English. The shortest honest way to find out whether this way of working suits you.

01Why a written phrase and its spoken form come apart.
02Reading a phrase in notation, with its stress marked.
03Where linking and reduction happen, and how to hear them.
04How to carry the same analysis into your own listening.

Register your interest

Name, email and time zone. You are contacted with the details once the date is fixed.

So the session is scheduled at an hour you can attend.

A few sentences is plenty. It shapes the examples used in the session.

The date and the number of places are not set yet, so this does not reserve a confirmed seat.

How it works

Four steps, in this order.

There is no instant checkout. The masterclass comes first, and enrolment is only discussed after a conversation.

01Join the free masterclass

One live session, in English. It is the shortest honest way to find out whether this way of working suits you.

02Apply to the program

A short application. It asks what you want from spoken English and how much time you can give it.

03A qualification conversation

Applications are read individually. If the program looks like a fit, the next step is a short conversation to confirm that.

04Enrolment

Only after that conversation. Dates, group size and fees are confirmed with you directly — nothing is charged from this page.

Questions

Answered as far as anything is settled.

Is this a beginner English course?

No. It assumes you already have English — grammar, vocabulary, reading. It addresses the part that usually remains: understanding and analyzing natural spoken English.

Is this accent reduction or accent training?

Not in the conventional sense. The aim is not to replace how you sound with a target accent. It is to give you an accurate model of how spoken English is constructed, so that you can hear it, analyze it, and make your own decisions about your own speech.

What level of English do I need?

Enough to take part in a basic conversation in English, since the training is conducted entirely in English. There is no placement test, and learners are not sorted into levels.

What language is the training in?

English, throughout — sessions, materials and written work.

How long is the program?

Roughly three months, in three phases: sounds and symbols, words and stress, then connected speech.

What does it cost?

Fees are confirmed directly with applicants for the cohort they are joining. No price is published here, because none has been fixed for a published cohort.

What happens after I register for the free masterclass?

Your registration is recorded as an interest entry. The masterclass date and the number of places have not been set yet; when they are, you will be contacted with the details. Registering does not yet reserve a confirmed seat.

What happens after I apply to the program?

Applications are read individually. If the program looks like a fit, the next step is a short conversation to confirm that before any enrolment is discussed.

Do I need the LINGU.LAND software?

No. The tools support the analysis; the teaching does not depend on them.

Will I be fluent at the end?

That is not a promise this program makes, and no honest program could make it. What the three months are built to give you is the analytical foundation to keep improving on your own, without a teacher.

Background

Four to five years of development, applied with real learners.

HACK.CENT grew out of four to five years of development work on how spoken English can be taught as a system of sound, rather than as a set of habits to imitate.

Over that period the approach was applied with around thirty people. Of those, fourteen to fifteen reached a level at which they could help teach the material to others — which is the outcome the program is designed around.

These are the founder's own records from developing and applying the method. They are not presented as independently certified or peer-reviewed scientific outcomes.
