Meet Your Hosts
Cara Leopold and Annemarie Fowler are two seasoned online English teachers who have both lived in France! Here we are in Paris together in May 2018.
Cara Leopold is originally from the UK and is the creator of the Leo Listening movie club.
Like you, she also struggled for years to understand French movies without the subtitles.
Nowadays, she lives in France and understands 99% of what she hears. Fast speech isn’t a barrier for her to fit in.
Not only has she taught English in France, she has a Master’s degree from a French university, has worked as an export assistant in a French company, and is a volunteer Carbon Conversations facilitator in her town.
She does what she wants, with who she wants, in French!
Annemarie Fowler is the founder of Speak Confident English and the creator of Fluency School as well as the Confident Women Community, where she helps women become confident and fluent in English.
Throughout her 20+ year career in English training, Annemarie has grown from an ESL/EFL teacher to an Academic Coordinator providing teacher training and creating materials, and then on to the Deputy Director of a language college in Washington, D.C.
In 2014, Annemarie launched Speak Confident English so she could focus on her passion: helping women overcome feeling shy in English so they can be successful in achieving their dreams, move forward in their careers, and feel comfortable in a new English-speaking country. She firmly believes that English should not be a barrier to success.
Annemarie has a bachelor’s degree in linguistics and her Master of Arts in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) from The New School in New York, NY. She has worked as an English language teacher and coach in Pakistan, Germany, Czech Republic, France, throughout the United States, and online.

Frequently Asked Questions
When is the workshop?
It’s happening live on Thursday January 25th 2024 at 6pm CET/9am PST/12pm ET.
What if I can't come live?
No worries, you will receive a recording of the workshop a couple of hours after it finishes. You’ll also get a workbook and the slide deck. Once you have downloaded these materials, they are yours to keep forever.
Do I need to be able to understand Netflix without subtitles before I join?
No, of course not. During the workshop, you’ll learn how to improve your listening skills with Netflix. You’ll also get advice on what to do about the subtitles. One of the goals of the workshop is to help you use subtitles without guilt when you need to. And to build the confidence to turn them off as well.
Why should I pay to join the workshop when I can just watch Netflix?
The question is – do you understand what you’re watching on Netflix? And is just watching Netflix helping you improve your English? In many cases, learners believe that it helps, but it’s often a waste of time, especially if you can’t catch many of the words and expressions. This is why we’re offering this workshop – to help you turn Netflix into a learning tool so you can understand native speakers better and express yourself with more ease.
