    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How can I master English in Alameda, CA and is possible to go light in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study using special programs, you have 4 main options for learning English interactively in Alameda, CA. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, check centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are less pricey.) Your second spource can be local private language academies that are cheaper and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, government-supported learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Finally, you can look for a private English tutor in Alameda, CA. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Alameda, CA and online English tutors.

    🎟 Is it cheap to learn English and what do English tutors charge?

    For university and college courses you can estimate English course cost as one-tenth of the yearly tuition (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the overall charge for 45-48 lesson hours each semester. Language academies and individual English tutors charge $30-55 for hourly group lesson, with private classes starting around $50 or more. Some of the better priced English tutors can be found online, with rates on Preply averaging 14 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor location, experience and specialization. Average student satisfaction for English lessons on Preply is 4.9 out of 5 stars.

    📚 What level of English do I need to sign up for a course?

    When considering college and learning center classes be prepared to show a language test profeciency score or take an entrance test to determine your level. 'Canned' classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework volume and testing, so research those in advance. With personal English tutors you can read reviews and get a good idea for whom the tutor is effective with and which other expertise they make available (like classes for adults, etc.) For better flexibility, choose a tutor from those teaching online.

    🔥 Why is English so hard and are there ways to learn it more effectively?

    Standardized language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn English. As proven by others before, you can gain basic English fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback 5 hours a week you will be able to understand everyday phrases, have simple conversations, get proficient in daily routines in about a year. Physical language immersion is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a fast and fun way of acquiring the basic knowledge of English. After attaining basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have English tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced speakers.

    🤷 How long does it take to learn English?

    Some people have a natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in English will take at least 600 hours of active use. The required duration of time can differ by a lot depending on your existing level of English or proficiency in other languages in the same group. After alphabet and basic reading it is recommended to use the language as often as possible: watch news and movies, start a journal or write posts and comments using your new language skills, try to communicate with native speakers to speak with, try additional ways to think and speak in English out loud. If this is not easy you can also take conversational English classes online.

    🤳 How many possibilities do I choose among when I select the right English coach?

    In language learning academies, it's possible that you can choose your own tutor (from a limited pool). Online, absolutely! The largest selection of approved English tutors with video profiles and real student reviews is available on online language learning resources like Preply.

    🗓 Will I be able to fit lessons in my busy schedule?

    Colleges usually run classes twice a week over a semester (15-week period). Language schools usually have shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, you can take as few as one lesson a year, as many as several a day - and as many (or as few) as you want during any time of day, on weekdays and/or weekends.
