What is Quest for English?

Learning a language is a long-term journey. My goal is to make the process interesting and engaging for as many students as I can. It’s important to practice every day. But it can be difficult to find ways to practice when you don’t have much time. Quest for English aims to help you eliminate the need to look for ways to practice.

This is why Quest for English is here. It is a place for learners of English to find self-study and practice activities that take ten minutes to complete. You can spend more time with each activity but you don’t have to. 

Each day, you can find a new activity. The level of activities varies but beginner and pre-intermediate students may struggle with some vocabulary and grammar discussed. Some activities also include suggestions for extension activities to make the activities more appropriate for advanced-level learners.

Each week you will see activities to practise speaking, writing, listening and reading. In addition to these core skills we will also cover grammar, communication skills, pronunciation, vocabulary, exam skills and study tips and resources on a bi-weekly basis. Every day has a different theme so that your English practice is balanced. You can also search for practice activities by skill practiced and topic.
