What is the Rich Morning Show?
The Rich Morning Show is an online English training program for beginners and younger learners.
Each lesson features a video (the Rich Morning Show – roughly two minutes long), followed by questions, mini-lessons, and personalised revision exercises.
You can access up to 20 lessons per month.
If the concept seems similar to the Gymglish learning platform, this is no coincidence – they are run by the same company.
How does the Rich Morning Show work?
Each morning, you’ll receive a lesson with a new Rich Morning Show, along with a personalised selection of listening and writing exercises in English.
When you complete and upload a lesson, you’ll receive your corrections, including your score for the day. Don’t worry if you can’t remember everything – these points will come up again in future lessons.
The next day, you’ll receive a new lesson. As you advance through the course, Rich Morning reviews the things you found difficult so that you remember them for the long term.
There is also an online help centre and user forum.
Who is the Rich Morning Show for?
This is aimed squarely at beginners and younger learners. Intermediate and advanced learners will not benefit from this.
What does the Rich Morning Show cost?
The first 2 lessons (including corrections) are free. If you want to continue, you will have to decide on which paid offer best suits your needs.
This table shows the current costs, based on the length of the contract.
For some reason, this information isn’t available in English, so I used the German version.
It shows the prices for different months (Monate) and the cost. You always have up to 20 lessons per month.
Summary
It’s good to see something like this aimed at younger learners and beginners. They provide an entertaining environment that doesn’t resemble a classroom.
As with Gymglish, the lessons change dynamically depending on your answers, which I think is a wonderful concept.
The only criticism from me is that I think the video speech is sometimes a bit fast for beginners. I feel that a tad slower would be better.

that sound cool! i just started studying german i was wondering if you have any suggestion for me, you know something like this!
Hi Luca,
Thanks for your comment. I’ve just checked and Udemy have some free and paid courses – haven’t looked at them myself, but might be a good starting point.
Hi Derek,
That is a great concept. Especially for beginners. Getting a lesson each day is excellent and 2 free to start with is a great way to get the product out there. Will definitely help young kids I think.
I am learning Spanish thru duolingo and its fun this whole language thing. Thanks for a great post 🙂

Hi Kev,
Thanks for your comments. I also think it’s good to see something special for the younger learners.
Hope the Spanish goes well and that you keep having fun with it.
Hi Mr Smith, do you have the outline of this course?
I wonder what will they teach for the basics English, is it like fundamental grammar or just learning words.
Thanks
Hi and thanks for commenting.
It’s not easy to provide a course outline, as it changes depending on your ability.
I would suggest trying out the first two free lessons and see how you like it.
Great review here, Derek. I like it a lot. I like how the system sends you a new lesson EVERY single morning. Consistency is what helps you learn and grow, and clearly the creators of this system know how to aid that process! I like the 2 free lessons as well. It’s a good way to see if you’d like the system or not. Thanks for the awesome review 🙂 You answered all my questions and concerns.
Hi Brandon,
Thanks for your comments. The “little but often” applies to so many learning situations. Glad you found the review helpful.
Never heard of this before, do you recommend this for people that are learning English as a second language? And can they start the training on their own or do they need like a tutor there to help them?
Hi there,
Thanks for your comments and questions. Generally speaking, having a good tutor will help but isn’t needed for this online course.
As mentioned, this is really only suitable for beginners. For intermediate and above, please check out Gymglish, a different product by the same company.
I think it is brilliant to have a resource like this for the young and inexperienced. The fact that it is an online platform means that there is less pressure when the pupil is learning to get things right first time.
I like how honest you are with your summary too.
Thank you for sharing it with us.
Best wishes
Hi Roselle,
Thanks for your comment. Good point about the reduced pressure.
