This is a new way of learning and totally experimental. I am not teaching like any of the traditional methods. So, we have not used much of the book reference, grammar or assignments / examples or practice sheets.
The video is about 1 hour covering the major syllabus. However, it is advised to learn at your pace and take it slowly, understanding the words, trying to relate and not hurry up in winding the videos.
