Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

🌆 How do I improve my English in Bakersfield, CA and is possible to go light in terms of commitment?

Besides self-study with special programs, you have several principal opportunities for learning English interactively in Bakersfield, CA. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, read about centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are cheaper.) Your other possibility can be local specialized language academies that are better priced and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, non-profit learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Finally, you can opt for a private English tutor in Bakersfield, CA. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Bakersfield, CA and online English tutors.

🎟 Is it cheap to learn English and what are the ballpark lesson costs for English tutors?

For university and college courses you can estimate English course cost by dividing annual tuition by 10 (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the rate for 45-48 course hours each semester. Language schools and individual English tutors charge $30-55 an hourly group lesson, with individual classes starting around $50 or more. Some of the less pricey English tutors can be found online, with costs on Preply averaging 14 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor country of residence, availability and popularity. Average student satisfaction for English lessons on Preply is 4.9 out of 5 stars.

📚 What are the requirements for English language skill level 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. All classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework volume and tests, so research all such requirements 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 add-ons they make available (like classes for students of A, B, or C leves, etc.) For better flexibility, choose a tutor from a wide selection of those teaching online.

🔥 Why is English so difficult and are there ways to learn it the easy way?

Standardized language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn English. In reality, you can gain basic English fluency in 300 hours from zero knowledge. Studying and getting feedback a few hours a week you will be able to understand most sentences, express yourself, shop and place orders in about a year. Relocating is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a ready and affordable way of acquiring the basic knowledge of English. After acquiring basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have English tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced learners.

🤷 How long does it take to get better at speaking English?

Some people brag about their natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in English will require at least 600 hours of dedication. The length of time can differ quite a bit depending on your existing level of English or proficiency in other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is best to use the language as often as possible: watch TV, write by hand and online using your new language skills, seek native speakers to speak with, try more ways to think and speak in English out loud. If you're struggling when starting a discusssion you can also take conversational English classes online.

🤳 Can I pick my own English tutor?

In learning centers, there's a likelyhood you could choose your own tutor (from up to a dozen teachers). Online, certainly! The largest selection of verified English tutors with video profiles and comprehensive reviews is available on online language learning platforms like Preply.

🗓 What time of day and on which days are classes available?

Colleges typically structure classes two times weekly over a semester (15-week period). Language schools make available shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, the number of lessons is really up to you, with early morning, day, evening and night classes available, on weekdays and/or weekends.
