About Charlie
I have always been very curious and convinced that there are no limits to learning. This curiosity constantly generates many ideas, and over time, I've learned to execute a filtering and motivational testing process with them. When they pass the test, there is no idea that does not materialize.
Whenever I have to define myself in a sentence, I do it with 'I am passionate about learning.' Like books or now the internet, teaching is one of the best sources of learning. I believe we learn from every moment, every experience, and every person, which has led me to become passionate about teaching.

If you had asked me 30 years ago if I knew how to create a website, play every instrument well enough to write songs or jam with friends, edit video, achieve and maintain a fit body, skip rope like a pro boxer, place a car and the moon in the living room with Augmented Reality, etc., my answer would have been no. But my next statement would have been, 'but I will learn it.'
Over time, I have developed a technique that enables me to learn anything much faster than others. Here, during the process of learning English, you will also 'learn how to learn' anything as quickly as your motivation levels allow.
Two weeks after the 'website bug' hit me, it was rolling and full of elements such as music, animations, and interaction with users. Keep in mind that 25 years ago, the information available and the digital tools we have today were not as developed and 'infinite'.
So how did I go from not having any idea of what a server was to creating something that required graphic design, animation, programming, and more. Was it perfect? No, but it was impressive enough to have 6.000 visitors per day. Perfection came quickly afterward, driven by motivation and a learning pattern I figured out. Like the website, everything else has gone through the same process.
Today, if you ask me, 'Do you know how to...?' and my initial answer is 'no,' my immediate response instead of being 'but I will learn it,' will be 'give me one or two weeks.' The reason is that over 30 years of learning so many different things and over 10 years of teaching have helped me recognize the learning pattern.
Are you going to learn perfect English in two weeks? No. Not everything can be mastered to perfection in such a short time. However, you will learn much faster than everybody else. But remember, motivation is a key factor here, even though 'homework' with me is different and adapts to your day, it's necessary. Let me worry about keeping you motivated.
Taking the first step to learn anything is not easy, but if you are reading this, it means you did it—congrats! Now, I will ask you this so you can understand the feeling of ‘knowing how to learn’: Do you remember when you took the driving test to get your license? Do you recall that feeling when you arrived on your first day at your first job and had no idea about anything? How did you feel after a few years? And now, how do you feel, when driving is second nature to you? It's automatic, right? So, let's go then, let's learn some English and 'learn how to learn' during the process!
