We're excited to announce a brand-new bonus opportunity tied to the success of our growing 1:1 Sessions product! To recognize the ECs leading the way in personalized coaching, the Top 3 ECs with the highest number of completed 1:1 Sessions each month will receive a $100 USD bonus. This is a great opportunity to showcase your expertise, connect with learners, and increase your earning potential while supporting one of Slang's fastest-growing products. Be sure to review the full details in the EC Policies and start crushing those 1:1s! G
As part of our ongoing effort to simplify your workflow and reduce reliance on multiple spreadsheets, we're excited to announce that class materials are now directly linked inside the Teach App. From now on, you'll be able to open the relevant material straight from the class event you're about to teach, making preparation faster and more seamless. Huge shoutout to Andy Ortiz for leading this valuable improvement!
Please note that materials are currently available from Beginner 1 to Advanced 3, while Soft Skills levels are still pending-for those classes, please continue using the regular Class Materials file. As with any new release, your support is key: if you notice any mismatch between the class topic and the linked material, please report it to your CTA right away so we can fix it quickly.
Over the past few days, we reviewed several cases related to the pending feedback comments report and identified two key points: it was not fully clear that No Shows must also be documented in the Teach App, and we've also detected a possible technical issue causing some comments to disappear, likely when learners switch series. A new Slang Bite is being created to align everyone on when and how feedback should be added, and we are also investigating the product issue with the Product team. Given these factors, CTAs have been authorized to proceed with the current hour revision process, and no admin work deductions will be applied to the ECs included in this report. Once the Bite is released and the issue is resolved, we will reinforce feedback completion as part of the regular monthly process. Thank you for your collaboration and understanding as we improve this together.

As the new cycle just started, please make sure to share the General Guide with your students. This will help them understand key aspects of the learning experience, including how to use the scoring feature correctly, how to contact support, and how to navigate Zoom effectively. Please use the appropriate version depending on the level: Beginner-Elementary Intermediate-Advanced (links in Class Materials file). This simple step helps ensure smoother classes and a better overall experience for everyone.
or Opportunity: Technical Workshops - Aviation Maintenance * We're preparing to launch a new client program focused on Technical English for Aviation Maintenance, and we're looking for ECs interested in supporting this initiative either through curriculum development in May or by teaching workshops starting in June. These workshops focus on real-world application of English in aviation contexts, such as interpreting manuals, reporting technical issues, and explaining procedures. We're seeking ECs with experience in technical English or similar specialized contexts. If you're interested, please DM Erika with your relevant experience and availability. This is a great opportunity to contribute to a high-impact, industry-specific program.

NEWSLETTER
Over the past months, we've shared several individual reminders regarding payment documents and invoice submissions. After onboarding sessions and multiple follow-ups, we need to reinforce the importance of following the correct process. From now on, any payment submissions with issues such as files not sent in PDF format, incomplete emails, Doc Soporte mistakes, incorrect amounts, or missing/incorrect invoice information will be reported to your CTA, resulting in a 10% deduction in your Admin Work score. Please remember that support is always available-feel free to reach out with questions before submitting. We're happy to help and encourage you to double-check everything to ensure a smooth and accurate process.
We've received reports from several ECs noticing missing comments from previous classes when adding feedback to Premium learners. This is especially relevant in Premium, where learners may move between schedules throughout the cycle, meaning that by the end of a series you may be working with a completely different group than at the start. For this reason, it is essential to add feedback comments immediately after each class. This ensures accurate tracking of learner progress, helps other ECs understand learner history when transitions happen, and prevents incomplete feedback records.

Great news our feedback system just got even better thanks to Andy Ortiz! The Feedback Comments feature now includes a new option called "Learners Pending Evaluation", which will help you easily track and manage pending feedback as soon as you join a series. This improvement is designed to make group feedback more organized and simplify your admin work. A big thank you to Andy for continuously improving our processes!
Please note: there is no need to add comments in Practice groups, and for Executive students, you should continue using the trackers as usual.

CESDE classes will continue until the first week of June. We're aware of some attendance challenges and kindly remind you that these are adult learners balancing work and assignments-please don't take it personally and continue classes as usual with professionalism. Their contract ends in early June, and we don't yet have confirmation about renewal. We'll keep you posted as soon as we have updates.
Team Updates: New Faces & Farewells
Practice Classes: Booking Is Now Required 17
Starting in May, learners are now required to book Practice classes before joining. Previously, learners were able to enter classes without prior booking, even after the session had started, which occasionally led to an uncontrolled number of participants. This update helps us ensure better class organization and a smoother learning experience for everyone. Please support us by communicating this change during your Practice classes and reminding learners to always book their sessions in advance.
As we kick off another month of 2026, we want to take a moment to celebrate our growing Slang family and acknowledge those who have moved on.
Welcome to our new teachers: We're excited to welcome Juan Pablo Arango Ramirez, Girish Vijayan, and Maria Fernanda Romero to the team! Your expertise and energy are a valuable addition, and we look forward to seeing you thrive in your classes.
Farewell and thank you: We also say goodbye to Lucca Scaravilli, Alejandro Gutierrez, Shanice Martin and Ana Maria Jaramillo who have moved on from Slang. Thank you for your dedication and contributions—your impact on students and colleagues will be remembered. We're thrilled to continue building a strong, supportive community and can't wait to see what this year brings for everyone.
A big Happy Birthday to all our amazing ECs who celebrated their special day this May! We hope your year ahead is filled with success, joy, and unforgettable moments. Thank you for all that you do-here's to another fantastic year!
