ACTET has launched MAKO ENGLISH introducing the ‘Learner First’ approach to language learning, offering a direct way to learn online which goes beyond the boundaries of traditional institutionalised education. It is not only direct because it is one-on-one, teacher-to-student. It is direct because it is undiluted. It puts the pure communicative style of language teaching, which has been evolving since the 1940s, into a new context: the integrated online social media learning platform.
