Testimonial

New student testimony forwarded from teacher Dick Towell

First and foremost, I would like to take this great opportunity to thanks our heavenly father for his love and guide throughout this journey of learning without him I wouldn't make it this far. To the manager and the staff of WEI thank you so much for allowing me to study English and the bible for free. I can't express the happiness that my life has right now for completing my bible study it is progress for my spiritual growth and a blessing for my family. This is not the end of my journey with the bible I will spread the good news that I have learned from my study until brother Jesus return to get us home into heaven. Thank you all so much for everything may God continue on blessing you all for the good work that you have done in the life of so many people including me. Hope to see you all in heaven.

I am very pleased to know you and to be one of your students. Your course is very interesting for me because instead of learning English, I am learning the Bible at the same time. So, thank you very much for your support.

WEI Teacher Testimonies

One of the remarkable things about being a WEI teacher is that, while being called “teacher” and various other terms of honor, I find myself learning from my students. I am taught by the hard question. Figuring out how to respond non-defensively, non-argumentatively, with an open mind, not cutting off communications by the tone of an answer, has made me grow. I am taught by the simple question. Often the simple statement or question from a student awakens in me the beauty of the Gospel and its message. I am taught by “advanced” discourses written by students who have incredible depth of understanding and insight communicated in their reading lesson essay questions. Amazing. I am taught by students “disclosing” sincerely deep personal information and experiencing them applying the Gospel to themselves and their situation. God is near. God gives the increase. I am taught by the rhythm of working with WEI student lessons arriving, grading, and responding to essay questions. Surprise, smiles, more surprise, and the presence of opportunity to witness the unexpected happening and being shared by the students brings joy to my heart. I am taught that “I am being taught” by this opportunity to be a World English Institute teacher. I am being taught to rejoice that a few people created the World English Institute website tool for Internet Evangelism. Many more keep it going, many teach, and we all get to go around the world to far off places finding people who want to learn English and then discover they have found God. I am taught myself to be an instrument in the WEI system, taking “prospective” students and helping many become “real” students. I am learning new personal skills to help attract and retain many who make that “first click” so easily on a free English course. And as the “claimed student” checks out the WEI lessons, always being optimistic and positive that the Gospel seed is being sown and watered, that I am “fishing” for Jesus, and that God will give the increase. I am taught to see God working through me and the WEI tool to change people’s lives. I have been changed and taught by God that I too can go into all the world and preach the Gospel. I can feel glad and fulfilled in this work that has changed my own life profoundly.
