How come the lessons are free?
Well, not everything in this world needs to cost money. I volunteer a lot, and since Halloween is my favorite holiday, I decided to open up my virtual classroom to the world and have children from various countries have fun online. Unfortunately, 2020 hasn’t been kind to us, so even if you are inside, even if trick-or-treating is not a possibility this year, it does not mean that we cannot have an online party! So join my free online English lessons for kids this Halloween and meet children from all over the world!
