What is Drill?
Drill is a speaking-focused, 25-minute long, online group language lesson. Each Drill is taught by a live Drill Instructor in a round robin style where students are kept on the edge of their seats as they’re guided through a series of increasingly challenging memory retention and pronunciation exercises.
The teaching method of Beepboop’s online Drills is influenced by pedagogical work pioneered at Dartmouth College by Professor John Rassias. This method, while eccentric, is proven to get students comfortable speaking a new language extremely fast.
What Makes Drill Unique?
Speak More
During a 25-minute Drill you'll speak ~300 words and "mouth" 1,000 words
Memorize Faster
Drill is designed to keep you on the edge of your seat and have your brain operating at 100%. It's not easy, but you'll be amazed how much you'll retain after just one 25-minute Drill
Messy Hair Don't Care
This is an online, audio-only class, so don't worry how you look. We won't see you! Audio-only classes help improve listening comprehension skills and create a more comfortable environment for making mistakes
