To My Fellow Word Wranglers,
 

I hope this message finds you well! Can you believe I've been teaching on Cafetalk a year and a half and almost 2,000 lessons? I’ve enjoyed every minute of our lessons together (more than you know!). Recently, I’ve found it harder to keep giving you all the high-quality lessons you expect from me. Your feedback has helped me see this, too. Because of this, I have decided to make some important changes to help me continue to provide the best lessons for each of you.
 

1. New Students: I will no longer be accepting new students. This decision will help ensure that each of you continues receiving personalized attention, which makes our lessons so special.
 

2. Current Students: Don't worry — our lessons will continue as usual!
 

3. Gradual Changes: Starting next week, I will begin phasing in updates to my lesson descriptions and pricing to better align with the actual content and the effort involved.
 

4. Price Adjustment: Many of you mentioned in the survey and in lessons that the prices were too low given the quality of the lessons. Therefore, I will adjust the prices slightly to reflect the value provided.
 

5. Longer Lessons: We will move to longer classes with more time between them. This change will help us explore topics more deeply and learn without hurrying. I apologize if you prefer the 20-minute lesson length. I believe it’s too brief to provide the thorough practice that benefits you most.
 

Thank you for your ongoing dedication and feedback, which have been key to our success. If you have any questions about these changes, please do not hesitate to contact me.
 

Warmest regards,
 

Manning
