At Virtually Fluent, we’re not just interested in teaching English and understanding the language, but we’re also fascinated by our learners and their ways of learning the English language. We’re constantly trying to improve our teaching methods and understand how learners want to learn the English language and why.
If you have the time, we’d appreciate any responses to our various research quizzes below. All data collected is protected by our privacy policy and solely used for the purpose of language research. If you’re interested in collaborating with us in-depth, please contact us.
