By changing the way she talked and thought about herself, Kari Romeo was able to turn insecurity into joy, doubt into confidence, and shame into self-love. This is the story of how she became a more happy, confident woman. Kari believes that every human being has unlimited potential and that the key to unlocking that potential is learning to love ourselves. For most of her life, Kari doubted her abilities, her self-worth and struggled with a poor self-image. To the outsider, she seemed quite successful, giving little indication of the almost constant negative discourse going on in her own head. When Kari finally learned to love and appreciate herself, she found her pathway to success and happiness. Now she brings simple steps to help others release themselves from their judgmental prisons and open a world of unlimited potential.

One can learn to communicate in English in a couple of weeks. A small number of words and basic grammar is enough to cope with everyday situations. Language is correct when others can understand it.
Piotrek has been a teacher of English and a translator for over 10 years. His experience involves classes with children aged 3 and lectures at a college of management. His approach is a blend of humor, simple – rapid communication and only useful materials – life is too short for boring learning.

Ақын Мақпал Жұмабай поэзия мен музыканы егіз деп есептейді. Ол бұл дәрісінде неліктен поэзия мен музыканы бір бірімен табыстырғанын түсіндіреді. Оның пайымдауынша, өлең әу бастағы болмысында музыкалы болды. Жер бетінде пайда болған өркениеттердің әдеби тариxы солай дейді. Ақындар өз өлеңдерін әуендетіп айтты. Оны әсерлі жеткізу үшін музыкалық аспап қолданды. Ақын деген ғасырлар бойы біз білетін бүгінгі “қалам мен қағаз ұстаған ақын” бейнесінен өзге болды. Олардың сол замандағы образы төрт элементтен тұрды: сөз, дауыс, музыка, аспап. Мемлекеттік «Дарын» Жастар сыйлығының лауреаты (2006 ж.), ҚР Президент қоры грантының иегері (2016 ж.)
