About Course

English for Adulting: Real Skills for Real Life” is a revolutionary 8-module course designed specifically for teens and young adults (ages 15-19) who need practical communication skills for independence and success. Unlike traditional English classes focused on literary analysis, this course tackles the real-world writing and speaking challenges every young adult faces: crafting professional emails that get responses, writing proposals that earn money, navigating complex adult paperwork, acing job interviews, and building a professional online presence. Each 4-week module combines humor, multimedia engagement, and hands-on projects that produce immediately useful portfolio pieces—from digital business cards and LinkedIn profiles to conflict resolution scripts and health advocacy toolkits. Students graduate with a comprehensive digital portfolio showcasing their professional communication abilities, plus the confidence to handle everything from salary negotiations to medical appointments. This isn’t just English class—it’s adulting bootcamp that transforms communication anxiety into career-ready confidence, giving young people the exact skills employers desperately seek and life demands.
