What Makes EnglishConnect Unique?
In EnglishConnect, we “seek learning, even by study and also by faith” (Doctrine and Covenants 88:118). Together we develop English skills in an environment of faith, fellowship, and growth.
Faith
In EnglishConnect, we act in faith to seek the Lord’s help in learning English. As we seek the Lord’s help to learn English, we can grow closer to God and experience the Savior’s enabling power. In each lesson, we study and apply a spiritual principle of learning. The Spirit is the true teacher, and we can seek gifts of the Spirit to help us learn, including the gift of tongues (see Doctrine and Covenants 46:8–26).
Fellowship
In EnglishConnect, we invite the Spirit as we love, teach, and support each other. We build friendships and help each other stay motivated. Together we increase our confidence, learn from our mistakes, and celebrate our progress. As we learn from the Spirit, we will “understand one another, and [be] edified and rejoice together” (Doctrine and Covenants 50:22).
Growth
In EnglishConnect, we do more than learn English; we also increase our capacity to learn and teach. No matter where we begin, we work hard and partner with God to achieve our goals. We act in faith to practice English daily. We strive to learn “by study and also by faith” (Doctrine and Covenants 88:118) in all areas of our lives.
