THE NAKED SNAIL PRESENTS:
Rewire your English! for Beginners
Welcome to this SLOW, but ENJOYABLE journey of learning the English language!
Here is what we'll do in this course:
- reprogramme your MINDSET to learning
- listen to and read about interesting topics
- find CREATIVE ways of remembering words
- look at grammar from NEW PERSPECTIVES
- learn to SLOW DOWN
- play with the English language
- become patient and NON-JUDGEMENTAL with ourselves
- get closer to the language through CULTURE
... and we're going to do all of this in English!

COMPREHENSIBLE INPUT
Here at the Naked Snail Movement we learn through comprehensible input. What is that?
Input is everything you TAKE IN. In the case of a language: reading and listening to a lot of English texts, but in a fun and playful way.
Comprehensible means UNDERSTANDABLE – which means that you can easily understand the text, even if you don't understand every single word.
This is how babies learn their MOTHER TONGUE.

Your Naked Snail Guide
DR. DORA HALAS (DLA)
Founder of the Naked Snail Movement
Teacher, Coach, Educator
Musician, Choir conductor, Director
I have worked for over 20 years in education, coaching, and the arts. I started the Naked Snail Movement in early 2024 to create learning spaces where people can grow naturally, through play and creativity, but in a deep way.
I believe that everyone can change and grow. It's a question of motivation, curiosity and practice.
Right now, I work as an English teacher, a choral conductor, and a leader of music projects. I am also training to become a teacher of Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) in Germany.
I am Hungarian, but right now I am living in Berlin with my family.
