    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How do I skill up on English in Birmingham and what does it take in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study using special programs, you have a few key choices for learning English interactively in Birmingham. 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 2nd spource can be local private 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 look for a private English tutor in Birmingham. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Birmingham and online English tutors.

    🎟 How expensive is it to learn English and what are the ballpark lesson costs for English tutors?

    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 cost of fifty or so class hours each semester. Language centers and private English tutors charge $30-55 per hourly group lesson, with private classes starting around $50 or more. Some of the more affordable English tutors can be found online, with rates on Preply averaging 14 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor location, experience and languages the tutor can teach in. 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. Predetermined curriculum classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework level and testing, 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 best flexibility, choose a tutor from many teaching online.

    🔥 Why is English so difficult and are there ways to learn it faster?

    Formal language instruction practiced in schools is not the most effective way to learn English. Realistically, 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 many sentences, speak on some level, get proficient in daily routines in about a year. Relocating is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a rapid and easy way of acquiring the basic knowledge of English. After mastering basic skills, online marketplaces like Preply have English tutors who specialize in intensive classes for intermediate and advanced level practitioners.

    🤷 How long does it take to get better at speaking 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 study. The length of time can differ by a lot depending on your available level of English or knowledge of other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is recommended to use the language as often as possible: watch videos, try typing using your new language skills, seek native speakers to speak with, try other ways to think and speak in English out loud. If it's more difficult than you had imagined you can also take conversational English classes online.

    🤳 Can I pick my own English instructor?

    In language learning academies, there's a likelyhood you could choose your own tutor (from a limited pool). Online, always! The largest selection of pre-screened English tutors with detailed profiles and real student reviews is available on online language learning resources like Preply.

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

    Colleges as a rule structure classes twice a week over a semester (15-week period). Language schools usually give shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, you can choose your own lesson frequency and time, on weekdays and/or weekends.
