Have you ever been embarrassed in front of friends or the people you work with, because you pronounced a word incorrectly? Are you “sometimes unsure of yourself in a conver- sation with new acquaintances? Do you have difficulty writing a good letter or putting your true thoughts down on paper? “Tf so, then you’re a victim of crippled English,” says Don Bolander, Director of Career Institute. “Crippled English is a handicap suffered by countless numbers of intelligent, adult men and women. Quite often they are held back in their jobs and their social lives because of their English. And yet, for one reason or another, it is impossible for these people to go back to school.” Is there any way, without going back to school, to overcome this handicap? Don Bolander says, “Yes!” With degrees from the University of Chicago and North- western University, Bolander is an author- ity on adult education. During the past eight years he has helped thousands of men and women stop making mistakes in English, increase their vocabularies, im- prove their writing, and become interesting conversationalists right in theirownhomes. BOLANDER TELLS HOW IT CAN BE DONE During a recent interview, Bolander said, “You don’t have to go back to school in order to speak and write like a college graduate. You can gain the ability quickly and easily in the privacy of your own home through the Career Institute Method.” In his answers to the following questions, Bolander tells how it can be done. Question What is so important about a person’s ability to speak and write? Answer People judge you by the way you speak and write. Poor English weakens your self-confidence — handicaps you in your dealings with other people. Good English is absolutely necessary for get- ting ahead in business and social life. You can’t express your ideas fully or reveal your true personality without a sure command of good English. Question What do you mean by a “com- mand of English’’? : Answer A command of English means you can express yourself clearly and easily without fear of embarrassment or mak- ing mistakes. It means you can write well, carry on a good conversation — also read rapidly and remember what you read. Good English can help you throw off self-doubts that may be hold- ing you back. Question But isn’t it necessary for a person to go to school in order to gain a com- mand of good English? Answer No, not any more. You can gain the ability to speak and write like a college graduate right in your own home —in only a few minutes each day. Question Is this something new? Answer Career Institute of Chicago has been helping people for many years. The Career Institute Method quickly shows you how to stop making embar- rassing mistakes, enlarge your vocabu- lary, develop your writing ability, discover the “secrets” of interesting conversation. Question Does it really work? Answer Yes, beyond question. In my files there are thousands of letters, case his- tories and testimonials from people who have used the Career Institute Method to achieve amazing success in their busi- ness and personal lives.
