C.S Lewis' Mere Christianity
Postman's Amusing Ourselves to Death
Postman's Amusing Ourselves to Death
Mere Christianity by C.S. Lewis is one of the most powerful explorations of faith and human identity in the modern world. In this course, we use Lewis’ timeless work to engage with the deepest questions: What grounds our morality? Where does identity come from? What role does faith play in shaping meaning and purpose? Lewis does not offer quick answers — he invites us into bold, uncomfortable, and transformative questions. This course is for those ready to think deeply, confront doubts honestly, and discover clarity about who they are and what they believe.

Postman's Amusing Ourselves to Death
What happens when screens become our teachers, preachers, and storytellers? In Amusing Ourselves to Death, Neil Postman reveals how entertainment culture distorts truth into amusement — and how this addiction erodes critical thought, morality, and identity. This course doesn’t just analyze media; it confronts your own scrolling habits, your relationship to distraction, and the way stories shape who you are. The challenge is clear: reclaim depth, reclaim focus, and reclaim yourself.

Orwell's Animal Farm
Postman's Amusing Ourselves to Death
Zhuo's the Making of a Manager
Disguised as a fable of farm animals, George Orwell’s Animal Farm unmasks enduring truths about power, corruption, and human nature. This course examines how leadership rises and falls, how truth can be rewritten, and how easily freedom is lost when vigilance fades. More than literature, it is a mirror — calling you to confront authority, question narratives, and consider your own responsibility in shaping the future.

Dick's Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep?
J.R.R. Tolkien’s The Lord of the Rings is more than epic fantasy — it is a meditation on courage, corruption, and the cost of standing for good in the face of evil. Through fellowship and betrayal, hope and despair, Tolkien reveals timeless truths about sacrifice, loyalty, and the resilience of the human spirit. This course explores how power shapes identity, how morality is tested, and how destiny is forged in the choices we make.

At HERIO, writing is more than grammar — it’s how you shape thought and identity.
At HERIO, writing is not just about producing correct sentences — it’s about discovering your voice and shaping your identity on the page. From brainstorming to final draft, every step becomes a practice in clarity, conciseness, and expression. You’ll learn to build arguments with logic and flow, refine style across academic, business, and creative contexts, and use grammar as a tool rather than an obstacle. Writing here isn’t only a skill — it’s a mirror of how you think, what you value, and how you want to be heard.
Our programs connect writing to real outcomes: essays that persuade, reports that inform, proposals that influence, and reflections that reveal character. Feedback-driven practice sharpens tone and voice, while cross-cultural awareness prepares you to communicate in global contexts. Every course is anchored in internationally recognized standards such as CEFR and IELTS, ensuring credibility and rigor. But beyond benchmarks, you’ll leave with something deeper — a writing identity that equips you for both immediate success and lifelong impact.
