My friend and I tackled Headway Elementary together as a casual duo-study project, and we stretched it over six months—partly because life got busy, but also because we added extra movie nights where we’d watch films in English and discuss them using the book’s themes. The course itself is designed for roughly 80-120 hours of study, but we probably logged closer to 150 with all our tangents.
The listening exercises were our favorite; they’re sprinkled throughout and make the pacing feel dynamic. If you’re someone who enjoys mixing structured lessons with real-world practice, you might naturally take longer but retain more. We didn’t rush, and by the end, we could handle travel conversations effortlessly. No regrets!
Headway Elementary took me eight weeks of intense focus—I was prepping for a trip and needed basics fast. The key was treating it like a part-time job: two hours daily, five days a week. The early units on introductions and present simple felt quick, but modals and prepositions slowed me down. I paired the book with their online quizzes, which helped solidify things. Honestly, if you’re disciplined, two months is doable, but give yourself grace if some topics need extra time. The blend of reading and listening kept it from feeling dry, though—I still hum the audio track tunes sometimes.
Headway Elementary is one of those courses that feels like a journey rather than a sprint. I went through it a few years ago when I was brushing up on my English, and it took me about three months of steady study—around 4-5 hours a week. The book’s structured into units that cover grammar, vocabulary, and practical skills, so it’s not just about memorizing rules. You’re actually applying what you learn in conversations and exercises.
What I loved was how it balanced repetition with new challenges. Some units flew by because the material felt familiar, while others, like the past tense section, had me revisiting exercises until it clicked. If you’re consistent, I’d say 2-4 months is realistic, but it really depends on how deeply you dive into the supplemental workbook or audio materials.

Have you ever felt a pain that consumed your entire being?
A pain that latched onto your heart and felt as if it shattered it into a million pieces?
A pain that you try to shove down deep, but in the end, you weep until your eyes run dry and there should be nothing left inside of you?
And yet, you somehow come out unscathed.
You're still alive to see another day, to sleep, to eat and to live.
And then comes a boy. One that shatters my soul, and makes me feel again.
Trapped in the walls of Windamere Academy, I know there's something wrong with this place, and yet here I am. One thing is for sure, everyone seems to bond over how much they all hate me.
A senseless tragedy struck Alanis Roswell, wiping out her greatest dream: having a family. Alanis will never know how it feels to hold her own baby.
So, her career became her main focus, giving it her all. Everything went well until she met Brody McLean. He was so charming, so easy to fall in love with. But when he told her about his dream of becoming a father, Lanie decided to push him away.
Brody McLean was gorgeous, rich, successful. But he wanted to find the right woman and start a family.
Was Alanis Roswell the woman he was looking for?
On the seventh day after my daughter goes missing, I kidnap an entire kindergarten. I lock away all 27 students and two teachers in a classroom.
I tell the police that if they can't find my daughter, I will kill a kid every 30 minutes.
The principal falls to her knees, wailing and begging, "It's not my fault that your daughter is missing. Why should other children pay for it?"
I glance at my watch. "29 minutes left. Find her."
I know she's in this kindergarten.
I donated 45 million to the city's best kindergarten, but my daughter failed the enrollment interview. She was a polymath.
Furious, I demanded an explanation from admissions. She hurled an assessment file at my face. "Your daughter's brilliant, but you're the exact opposite! You're dead last among the parents!"
She continued, "The others have tech domes! You're nothing but a regular Ivy League graduate! Your degree's worth about as much as toilet paper!"
The other teachers laughed as well. "If we admit her daughter, it's going to look bad on the other kids. She can't take that responsibility."
"Yeah, I can't believe she's demanding an explanation from Ms. Johnson. Her husband is the kindergarten's biggest stakeholder. He can make sure her daughter has nowhere to go."
The admission teacher shoved me away. With disdain in her eyes, she said, "Out of my sight if you know what's good for you. My husband is picking me up in his Rolls-Royce. His car plate alone is worth more than your life! It's lucky 777! Only one in Georgeport!"
Three sevens? That was my husband's car. I laughed mirthlessly and texted my husband. "I had no idea you had another wife behind me."
While on vacation, I return to my hometown to help my parents harvest pears. After seeing my Instagram post, my son's homeroom teacher, Ernest Dugan, sends me a private message.
"So you sell pears, Mr. Miller? The kindergarten hasn't finalized next month's fruit supplier yet, so we'll order from you. You won't suffer any loss from this deal. I'll pay five dollars per pound. You just need to arrange transportation and deliver them to the kindergarten."
I almost laugh out loud. My family's pears are the famous Green Jewel variety; they are known as the "Hermes of pears". They sell for over 100 dollars per pound on average. Five dollars wouldn't even cover the cost of a single pear.
Even though Ernest is being ridiculous, I still reply politely, "Sorry, all of our pears are reserved. You'll need to find another supplier."
To my surprise, Ernest immediately posts photos of my family's pears in the parent group chat.
He writes, "Next month's fruit selection for the kindergarten will be upgraded to Green Jewel pears. If anyone wishes to buy some for personal consumption, feel free to place orders below. The price is five dollars per pound."
The chat group buzzes with activity as parents rush to place orders one after another.
Three days later, they block the truck carrying my shipment to Windford. Determined to force the sale, they surround the vehicle and refuse to let it leave.
Before they can ransack the truck, several military-plated vehicles arrive and seal off the road. A group of officials steps out with stern, angry expressions.
One of them coldly demands, "These are pears specially ordered for this weekend's state banquet. Who said you could lay a finger on them?"
