I couldn’t afford live classes, so I took the Self-Paced Vault and honestly expected to get bored and quit. The placement test dropped me into the A2 grammar course and the modules just… made sense. Auto-scored quizzes after every unit meant I always knew if I’d actually understood something. I finished the full ladder on my phone during commutes. A year ago I couldn’t write an email in English; last month I passed my university’s B1 entrance exam.
