The gap

You understand English. Speaking it is a different story.

You read and understand most things. But when you speak (or write quickly), something changes.
You reach for a word and it isn’t there. You say the simpler version. The sentence comes out, but it doesn’t quite sound like you.
That’s not a level problem. That’s a passive vocabulary problem. This newsletter works on that.

Most weeks, one email. A real phrase, a pattern, a moment from a lesson. Something short enough to read between tasks and specific enough to actually use.

If you’re just starting out in English, this probably isn’t for you yet.

What you get

When I try to speak English, I feel the same way, especially in important situations. Your emails feel like what I need right now.

Even when I’m busy, your emails push me to keep improving and try new things in my English learning.

It’s the only English content I actually read regularly.

About me

Hi, I'm Tetiana.

I’ve worked with Ukrainian adults on spoken English for over 20 years. I know where the hesitation comes from, which mistakes matter, and which ones don’t. That’s what shapes every email I write.

The name “Thinking in English” means two things: I’m thinking out loud, in English, about English. And you’re working toward doing the same.

I've worked with Ukrainian adults learning English for over 20 years. That experience shapes every email I write.
