    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How do I improve my English in Burnaby and what are my options in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study using special programs, you have a few main opportunities for learning English interactively in Burnaby. 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 a little more affordable.) Your other option can be local specialized language academies that cost less and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, non-profit learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Last, you can find a private English tutor in Burnaby. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Burnaby and online English tutors.

    🎟 Is it expensive to learn English and how much should English tutors ask?

    For university and college courses you can estimate English course cost by dividing annual tuition by ten (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the rate for 1/2 of a hundred lesson hours each semester. Language schools and independent English tutors charge $30-55 per hourly group lesson, with private classes starting from $50 or more. Some of the less pricey English tutors can be found online, with tuition on Preply averaging 14 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor country of residence, experience and specialization. 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. Planned classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework level and testing, so research the details in advance. With personal English tutors you can find reviews for whom the tutor is effective with and which other expertise they make available (like classes for students of A, B, or C leves, etc.) For better flexibility, choose a tutor from those teaching online.

    🔥 Why is English not easy and are there ways to learn it faster?

    Formal 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 a few hours a week you will be able to understand common words, be understood when you talk, shop and place orders in about a year. Finding native speakers is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a ready 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 learners.

    🤷 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 require at least 600 hours of practice. The required duration of time can differ quite a bit depending on your current 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 television, try typing using your new language skills, try to communicate with native speakers to speak with, try as many as possible ways to think and speak in English out loud. If this is not easy you can also take conversational English classes online.

    🤳 What are my options when choosing the English coach?

    In colleges and universities, there's a chance you can choose your own tutor (from up to a dozen teachers). Online, certainly! The largest selection of approved English tutors with full profiles and customer reviews is available on online language learning 'supermarkets' like Preply.

    🗓 What's the best time to schedule classes?

    Colleges as a rule offer classes twice a week 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.
