How Bob's teaching method began
In 1992, two friends asked Bob to prepare them for an interview at the New Zealand Embassy in Moscow.
Bob was then a postgraduate student at the Kazakh Academy of Architecture and Construction. He turned his room in the student residence into a classroom, and more learners soon joined.
Those first lessons grew into Bob's English Grammar in 10 Days method, registered under copyright certificate No. 12672.
