    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How do I improve my English in Dubai and what does it take in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study using recorded courses, you have several principal opportunities for learning English interactively in Dubai. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, research centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are cheaper.) Your second resource can be local specialized language academies that cost less and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, government-supported learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Fourth, you can find a private English tutor in Dubai. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Dubai 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 by dividing annual tuition by 10 (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the cost of 1/2 of a hundred class 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 more affordable English tutors can be found online, with tuition on Preply averaging 14 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor geography, ratings and specialization. Real student rating average 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 tests, so research the details in advance. With personal English tutors you can find out in advance for whom the tutor is effective with and which other specializations they make available (like instruction for beginners, etc.) For maximum flexibility, choose a tutor from those teaching online.

    🔥 Why is English so challenging 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 several hours a week you will be able to understand many sentences, have simple conversations, socialize in about a year. Physical language immersion is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a fast 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 students.

    🤷 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 require at least 600 hours of active use. The amount of time can differ a lot depending on your already acquired level of English or familiarity with other languages in the same group. After alphabet and basic reading it is a good idea to use the language as often as possible: watch videos, write by hand and online using your new language skills, look for native speakers to speak with, try other 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.

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

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

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

    Colleges as a rule run classes twice a week over a semester (75-day period). Language schools give 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.
