Although passing CPE had been my dream for a very long time, it was not until I took Paul Newson’s course when I understood that it may come true. If I had to choose one word to describe the course, it would probably be the word abundant. Because, really, it contains plenty of information and opportunities for growth and the truth is that I was probably able to use only half of it, but it turned out to be enough for an A! The amount of useful high-level vocabulary provided in the course is just exceptional, and it is presented in a way which helps to incorporate it in an essay or a speaking task. I suppose preparation for the writing tasks is an uphill struggle for most of us. It helped me a lot that the feedback given on the essays I handed in was constructive and detailed, and I had all my follow-up questions answered. The atmosphere during our speaking sessions was incredibly warm and friendly. I was always looking forward to them and felt increasing motivation and concentration afterwards. It is obvious that preparation for CPE is not something that can be served up on a silver platter. There is a great amount of hard work any student is required to do by themselves. What Paul does is he encourages independent study and gives clear instructions on how to do that successfully. What is also special about Paul is that he is a dedicated and highly professional teacher who leads, supports and inspires by his own example. I certainly recommend his exam preparation courses to everybody who has decided to go for it. And a huge thank you to Olga Smekalova, who was always there to help out with organizational and technical issues!

When I saw information about the Intensive Online Course with Paul, I immediately signed up for it. Now it’s almost the middle of the course and I would say that every day I become more passionate about English and CAE due to the way tasks and activities are given to us. Moreover, Paul and Olga are very supportive and I can get help almost 24/7. All skills are being practiced equally. Namely, I have a great opportunity to talk to Paul and my coursemates, which is very beneficial for me. Saturdays are devoted to writing and our papers are checked and analyzed in a short period of time. I addition, we even get marks for our papers as though we took the exam and got the results. That is awesome because we can see the full picture of our readiness for the CAE exam. What is more, videos on YouTube and exercises on TestPad are informative and practical and they are available three months after the course finishes, which is really great! Those students who feel that they are not ready to take the CAE yet can continue training. Although, I believe that most of us will be able to pass it after the last lesson of the course owing to the intensity of it. I cannot imagine how I will live without the streaming lessons, discussions and friendly atmosphere.

I would like to thank the entire team of Newson’s school for all your support within your intensive distant courses. Once met I made it clear for myself I wished to study with Paul. Being highly professional and really passionate about teaching he is the person who can encourage for achievements with full awareness of how to put his students at their ease and how to help them to achieve their goals. I personally have been looking for conversational classes to get my language polished along with getting trained for the structure of higher level Cambridge exams. I must say that with this course you have to be ready to work really hard, sometimes pushing yourself into it despite probable personal situations that life may bring up, but please don’t stop and never give up, for what is really important is that each time whatever you misunderstand or just feel like sharing you have this feeling of being a part of a big family, being supported all way through. The course itself is well structured with a huge variety of tasks and tactics applied in order to improve your skills, and what is really important is that it is students oriented. Made in a format of the marathon it does what it does and once in a while makes you feel highly involved, I guess mostly because you can see your progress. I wish I could say this and much more to a wider audience, but all in all I must say I am not intended to stop here, even when the course is over I would like to go further hopefully under your guidance. Thank you for doing a great job!

«Поначалу я отнеслась скептически к трёхмесячному курсу по подготовке к CPE, не в отношении способностей Пола, а своих)) так как срок показался мне достаточно сжатым. Потом уже в ходе занятий я поняла как это работает. В первую очередь, если не делать регулярно домашнюю работу, общая подготовка может пострадать. Но! Пол учит главному, – тактике сдачи экзамена) он учит «ловить рыбу», а не «есть» ее)) Тут я поняла всю прелесть этого курса. Многим мешала работа, дела, и прочее чтобы выполнять домашнюю работу, однако главному все на курсе научились – как готовиться к экзамену, на что обращать внимание, чего ждать на экзамене. Поэтому смело могу заявить, что если делать все как говорит Пол, делать все задания заданные на дом – 3 месяцев хватит чтобы подготовиться к экзамену, если присутствовать только на занятиях и делать все с ним – 3 месяцев хватит, чтобы понять как двигаться дальше уже без его помощи, чтобы «поймать рыбу»)))))»

The course was very informative and really helpful. Paul is one of very few natives who puts his heart and soul into teaching. He was very motivating, supportive and inspiring and guided us through all the difficulties. So did group administrator, who was available 24/7 and dealt with any technical problems. The course was very well planned and structured and one of the main advantages was an opportunity to get detailed feedback from professional. Also, Paul shared some exam strategies and tactics that really work and you can’t find any book which suggests them. The main difficulty for me was working with Test Pad, cause I’m more used to paper stuff. I wouldn’t change anything except maybe adding a bit more context, I think it would be a good idea to base each week on a particular topic and tasks related to it. But in general, the format of the course was very suitable for me and fulfilled my expectations. Want to thank everyone who was involved.

If hesitant students-to-be are not compelled by what your astounding success rates show, well, I’d rather not know what would. Having checked some online courses out before enroling in this one (I felt like a “wino driving a bumper car”, roaming the cluttered myriad of online courses) . . . I thought “huf, just *another one*”. Boy, was I ever more wrong! The moment I watched Paul’s promo video on VK, I WAS IN—and I’m so glad I did! I enjoyed every bit of it (sometimes throve on it) and cannot recommend it enough! Paul’s lessons give so many invaluable tactics—and opportunities to hone them—that with but a little of effort from your part, you are bound to gloat over Cambridgr and their exams. Plus Olga’s guidance and live lessons are just as terrific, too! So do yourself a favor and don’t get bogged down in other courses that do not live up to their boastful claims.

When I once came across Paul’s page in vk.com and binge-watched some of his videos , it dawned on me, it was my dream teacher-enthusiastic, charismatic, and professional. The only problem of Paul is that it seems impossible to clone him, so that more students could improve their language skills with Paul. In that sense, such format as a mass learning online CAE marathon seems like a way out. But this marathon is not only about drilling tons of Grammar and Vocabulary activities. We also get his lectures daily with all the strategies and tips, needed for successful CAE pass, thoroughly explained. The lectures links are at your convenience whenever you have some free time on hands to watch them. Even the most boring tasks, explained by Paul, blow you away like an action Hollywood movie, not only because they are fun but also full of useful content, which you’re unlikely to find in any coursebook. Not a single second is a waste of time.Any questions occurred could be asked freely, and are usually answered by Paul during weekly live streams. I also find speaking practice extremely inspiring, uplifting, and joyful. What I like most, is that positive spirit of Paul makes you believe in your success! He politely points out at the advantages and drawbacks of each participant during the practice. The only disappointing thing is that all good things come to an end, so does the marathon.we are half done by now, but we’re already pretty sure we can do really well in the exam and with his helping hand, pass CAE with flying colours!

Когда было принято решение сдавать САЕ, я начала смотреть видео Пола, где он рассказывал про разные части экзамена. Видео очень информативные и интересные. Возник вопрос: почему Пол не организует онлайн интенсив по подготовке к САЕ, ведь он может больше дать участникам, чем другие организаторы подобных курсов. И, о чудо, через некоторое время появляется пост о наборе в такую группу. Счастью не было предела, сразу же было принято решение участвовать. ( хотя на тот момент я уже определилась с участием в другом интенсиве). Курс превзошёл мои ожидания. Я и не рассчитывала получить так много за такие деньги. Ежедневные лекции создают полное ощущения присутствия на реальных занятиях. Пол не только объясняет материал, даёт много интересных конструкций и выражений, а также даёт советы по выполнению заданий на экзамене. Ведь очень важно знать, что тебя ждёт на экзамене, и в каком формате ты должен всё выполнять. Это залог успеха. Ну и языковая подготовка, конечно, куда же без неё. Разговорные занятия просто огонь. Они дают полное осознание того, что от вас хотят услышать на экзамене. Пол создаёт различные ситуации, в которых можно оказаться, так как разговорная часть проходит с партнёром, от которого не знаешь чего ожидать.Ведь прекрасное владение языком и полное отсутствие понимания формата разговорной части не приведут к хорошим результатам. Пол всегда подбадривает и вдохновляет во время разговорной практики, что вселяет уверенность. Еженедельные стримы с Полом держат в тонусе. В письменных работах всегда есть комментарии, что нужно исправить, как улучшить, над чем поработать.Темп выполнения очень демократичный, что важно. Ведь многие сочетают учёбу с работой и семьёй. Техническая поддержка просто на высоте, готовы придти на помощь в любое время дня и ночи. В общем, прибываю в полном восторге от курса и могу смело рекомендовать его тем, кто действительно нацелен сдать САЕ.

В декабре начался долгожданный интенсив по САЕ с Полом. Я бесконечно счастлива, что принимаю в нем участие! Пол, прекрасный преподаватель, с потрясающим чувством юмора и мощной заряжающей энергией, мотивирующей на дальнейшую работу и движение только вперёд! К моему приятному удивлению, я получила от этого курса гораздо больше, чем могла бы ожидать. Интенсив с Полом, это не просто бесконечное выполнение экзаменационных тестов, а бесчисленное количество интересных идей и техник выполнения заданий, поддержка и подкрепление мотивации! Хочется сказать огромное спасибо за бесценный опыт, интересный курс, теплую, дружелюбную атмосферу и поддержку! Отдельное спасибо администратору, Ольге за своевременную помощь и понимание!

Joining Paul’s CAE course in December 2017 was definitely one of the most significant events of the year for me! Why did I join it? I am a teacher of English and a mother of two kids. More and more often I had a feeling that I was degrading and soon would speak no better than my pre-intermediate students. What did I want? I felt I needed motivation (probably some “magic kick”) for further development. I desperately needed speaking practice with a native as well as with advanced students of English. What did I get? Far more than I had expected! I finally found the motivation to read dozens of articles from British magazines and watch and listen hours of British videos and podcasts. I also learnt some invaluable techniques for passing international exams and use many of them in lessons with my students. Thanks to Paul’s explanations many advanced grammar points have finally become clear to me. And, last but not least, I met some fantastic teachers of English who are, like me, concerned with their professional development. Thank you, Paul, for the excellent course!

Ever had that ‘been-there-done-that-got-the-Tshirt’ mood concerning your English studies? If you are one of the lucky buddies whose English is decent C1-C2, then you’ve definitely been plagued by the dilemma of what is next? I’ve chosen CPE with Paul mainly as a recreational activity because for starters, English studies are a life-long journey, so why not have it in a pleasant and inspiring company? Secondly, when preparing for an exam all you need is the structure drill and those tiny nitty-gritties that can either make you or break you on the exam day. Of those, we had plenty. Paul explained the technique, we practised under the Master’s supervision and then implemented in the holistic test. What I personally found most fruitful, is the most thorough and meticulous guide to writing and speaking. The feedback was awesome & detailed, and providing you deliver your writing submissions on a regular basis, you have nothing to fear of at the exam. As for speaking, we laughed our heads off and many of my groupmates felt much more fluent and at ease by the end of the course. Mission complete! Overall, it is a highly commendable course with lots of insights and takeaways. I am uber-happy I was lucky to have this short-run marathon to excellence and blessed to meet outrageously fantastic people on the course.
