The challenge is built for learners at roughly A2–B1 level or higher — you should be comfortable reading simple English and following basic conversation. If you're a complete beginner, we recommend waiting for our beginner track (launching July 2026).

No. Your $97 includes full access to the Teacher AI app for the 30 days — no recurring charges, no free trial to cancel, nothing to unsubscribe from. If you're already a Teacher AI subscriber, your plan is paused during the challenge and resumes automatically on day 31.

Shayna recorded hours of voice and lesson content. We used that to build an AI clone of her inside the Teacher AI app — you can speak to her like you would on a phone call. The clone knows exactly what lesson you're on and will practice that material with you, give feedback, and keep the conversation going.

Both — and that's by design. When you join through this page, every daily question is answered by all three teachers: Shayna from Espresso English (US English), Greg from English with Greg (Yorkshire-rooted British English) and Anna from English Like A Native (modern British English). So each lesson exposes you to two flavours of native English in the same topic — most learners benefit from understanding both, even if they prefer to speak one. Your speaking practice in the app is with Shayna's AI clone, so your daily conversations stay in her US English.

The theme is "The Good Old Days" — 30 questions about childhood memories, the places and people who shaped you, and your relationship with the past. Everything from "What was your dream job as a child?" to "What's a smell that reminds you of your childhood?" to "If you could visit any moment in Britain's past, what would you choose?" Each question looks simple, but you can answer at any level — a few sentences or a long story, whatever fits where you are today. All three teachers — Shayna, Greg and Anna — answer every question themselves, so each day you hear three real stories in natural English (American and British) before it's your turn.

Every morning, an email lands in your inbox with the day's question and a link to the lesson on your personal course portal (Teachable). Inside the portal you'll find three video answers — one each from Shayna, Greg and Anna — each with their own vocabulary breakdown, plus written materials. Then you open the Teacher AI app and have a real conversation around that topic with Shayna's AI clone — speak as much or as little as you want, for as long as you want.

All four hangouts are recorded and available for 30 days. You can watch them back anytime.

About 20 minutes: roughly 5–8 minutes of video, then 10–15 minutes of speaking practice. You can do it on a lunch break, commute or walk.

A smartphone works best (Teacher AI has iOS and Android apps). You can also use the web version on a laptop. If you can use WhatsApp and a smartphone, you can do this — we'll help you get set up on day 1.

Yes. The Teacher AI app has a History tab where you can scroll through every conversation you've had with Shayna's AI clone — read the transcript, listen back, and see the corrections you received. Downloading transcripts isn't supported right now.

Yes. If by day 15 you don't feel you're speaking more English, email us and we'll refund you — no questions asked.

You keep lifetime access to the 30 questions, daily lessons, and videos. The Teacher AI app subscription continues only if you explicitly choose to subscribe — we'll send alumni a special offer around day 28.
