Past Tense of Banana offers the smallest online class size with a guaranteed maximum of four students, so each student gets quality time with the teacher every session. We do not work with textbooks.  All our sessions start from what the students already know. We don't waste time teaching what has already been learned. We use an approach to learning that is close to acquiring English rather than studying it. We introduce our students to all verb forms and grammar rules from the start; slowly explaining them over time. This gives the student the greatest amount of time to learn the verb forms naturally in their own time. 

Working with books forces a student to learn English by following a set route. In reality, people use a variety of sources to learn English these days, so there is no set route. Past Tense of Banana works on a modular system, allowing students to fill in the gaps in their knowledge. Also, we use a lot of AI and online activities to keep the sessions dynamic and relevant.  Simply put, we don't need books in modern English teaching.
