Pay your fees and you’ll be well and truly rogered.
Roger that.
*raises the jolly roger*
Yay! They’re teaching Engrish now. It’s the way of the future, folks!
You do not waste you time with annoying rules, such as the rules of grammar.
A little knowledge is an Engrish thing.
lol fail teaching
Engrish wins again!

La conejita? Could this be a scam?
No, she is not a scam, if that is what you are saying.
No, unfortunately this IS an English school in Mazatlan Mexico. I looked it up. You can also tell that the person writing this was thinking in Spanish and just translated it into the English thinking it’s written the same way.
Have a look at the exclamation marks. He starts out with the upside down (!). Which is something done when writing in Spanish. He also calls himself teacher Roger, which is something you would call a teacher in Spanish. In English he would need to say Professor Roger.
…..ouch!
I like your new avatar.
Thanx! I changed it for la conejita. I am now cute and fuzzy, instead of being a big black alien head.
Wait, what? You don’t have to change for me. I just mentioned that I liked your old avatar better, when you were a cat.
Now I am a cute cat! (and I wanted to change anyways! Since Meowth has gone, I have noticed the absence of kitten-ness, and I wanted it back)
Hey, at least it’s guaranteed!
And the typed “explanation” below is spelled worse than the original Engrish.
I find a single 6 months to be much too fast. Leaves me feeling a bit dizzy.
Well, if you’re married it lasts a lot longer, but it costs a lot more.
How true in many ways.
I had been, but illness and death changed all that.
I’m sorry! I hope things are getting better.
Thank you.
Nothing is ever the same after someone close to you goes. I hope you heal as well as possible, and that your life gains balance and joy.
That is true.
You are very, very kind.
The correct translation should have been “In only 6 months”. The word they are translating is “Solo” which means a single item, but when it has an accent on the first o’ it means only. He probably forgot to put the accent when he looked up the translation.
Didn’t he used to be a Dread Pirate?
Roberts, that’s Roberts you’re thinking of, The Dread Pirate Roberts. I’m glad we have la conejita here to interpret for us, because I wasn’t sure exactly what this advert was for: learning how to circumvent rules that annoy us, for example “Do not take cakie things from shops without paying for them”, or “If you eat more calories than you expend through metabolism and exercise you will get fat”, yes, I’d really like to learn how to avoid that annoying rule.
If you do learn how to void that rule (If you eat more calories than you expend through metabolism and exercise you will get fat) you will not only become thin but also very famous and rich, assuming you pass that information to the rest of humanity.
If you lean back in your chair and look at the logo, it kinda looks like a clown.
I’m thinking babelfish myself. You plug a sentence into an online translator and you get a word-for-word translation, not a grammatically correct one. I cannot tell you how many times I’ve caught someone claiming he can speak Spanish, but use a construction that makes it obvious to even my middling Spanish skills.
Of course, the result would be the same as a person translating words directly, but it’s hard to see someone learning another language that well without actually picking up some grammar. I’d expect a person to confuse it a bit, not just go straight up Spanish structure with English words.
I talk too much, but you get the picture.
That’s a known side effect of thinking babelfish. Quit thinking babelfish before it’s too late, and the effects become irreversible!
Well, I didn’t learn the Spanish, so I guess that’s why you didn’t give me in English everything what I mean. On the whole, I’m probably better off.
As a future ESL / TESOL teacher this makes me faceplam….
learn english is hard!!! hahahahaa!!! im sure this is from China.
English hard, easy engrish.
Here’s a bit of unsolicited advice: Try a little more reading and a little less thinking.
Finally, we have an explanation: Roger is a Plumber of Satan, handing out the Tools of Satan.

At least he got the apostrophe in the name of the place correct. Otherwise it would look like a British tabloid headline.
English is a monster of a language to learn. Engrish, apparently not.
learning english is quite easy, there arem any tutorials on the internet and some audiobooks too “.`
