My English Uni

Microwin Monday is for the tiny study wins that don’t look impressive on paper, but quietly keep you moving forward.
Today, your microwin might be:

Sitting down for 20–25 minutes of focused work instead of avoiding it

Adding your deadlines or classes into a planner or calendar

Breaking one big assignment into smaller, doable steps

Going to a lecture or seminar you almost skipped

Doing one small admin task: emailing a tutor, asking a question, or checking your portal

👉 Your turn:
What’s ONE microwin you’ve had for your studies in the last week? It can be tiny. If it nudged you 1% forward, it counts.

You can share:

What you did (1 sentence)

How it made things feel even a little bit easier or clearer (1 sentence)

Remember: your degree is built from hundreds of these small wins, not one perfect day. 💬📚

3 days to go!

The free 3-week Pre-Sessional English Taster Course starts this Sunday, 14 June — and free sign-up is open now.

It’s designed for international students preparing for UK university who want to feel more confident with:

→ academic writing
→ reading
→ paraphrasing
→ critical thinking
→ UK study expectations

IELTS may help you get your offer, but university study asks for more than passing a language test.

This short taster gives you practical strategies, simple explanations and reusable resources to help you feel more prepared before you arrive.

You’ll get:

→ 3 short video lessons
→ downloadable PDFs
→ weekly mini-tasks
→ example answers
→ a free 20-minute consultation at the end, if you’d like one

**Starts this Sunday, 14 June.**

Free sign-up here:

IELTS gets you through the door.
This helps you feel ready once you’re there.

Please share with anyone starting a UK university course soon.

After 35 years teaching and supporting international students, I've watched the same thing happen. every September.

Brilliant international students arrive — passed IELTS, offer letter in hand,
ready to begin — and within weeks they're drowning. Not because they can't
speak English. Because nobody ever taught them what UK university English
actually sounds like.

I've been quietly building something to fix that.

More this week. www.myenglishuni.com

Eid al-Adha Mubarak to all our students, families and friends celebrating.
Wishing you peace, reflection, joy and time with those you love. From all of us at ME+U.

🎓 Something exciting is coming — and it's completely free.

If you're an international student heading to a UK university this September, you might be feeling a mix of excitement and nerves right now — especially about academic writing and what's really expected of you.

It's a free 3-week online course starting in June, designed to help you:
✅ Understand how UK academic writing actually works
✅ Read and use sources with confidence
✅ Build a real argument — the way your tutors will expect
