      Why choose Henly V.
      "i'm learning Spanish from Henly, and i'm at the very beginner level now. I highly recommend his class to you. If you are someone at the beginner level who learns a foreign language, you may know it's always hard to keep track of learning the new language until you go up the next level. And that's why people always give up and lose their interest before they go up. But Henly's class is always fun and enjoyable. He has a passion for teaching language and i can see he is also enjoying the class. He understands and knows how language works and how the language can be authentic. I'm really expecting upcoming classes with Henly :)"

    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

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

    Besides self-study with special programs, you have a few key opportunities for learning English interactively in Manhattan, NY. 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 better priced.) Your second option can be local commercial language academies that cost less and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, not-for-profit learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Last, you can choose a private English tutor in Manhattan, NY. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Manhattan, NY and online English tutors.

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

    For university and college courses you can estimate English course cost as 1/10th of the yearly tuition (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the cost of 45-48 course hours each semester. Language academies and private English tutors charge $30-55 an hourly group lesson, with private classes starting around $50 or more. Some of the more affordable English tutors can be found online, with costs on Preply averaging 14 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor country of residence, experience and specialization. Average reviews 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 prove your profeciency level. 'Canned' classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework commitment and tests, 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 specializations they make available (like instruction for beginners, etc.) For more flexibility, choose a tutor from a wide selection of those teaching online.

    🔥 Why is English so hard 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 5 hours a week you will be able to understand common expressions, have simple conversations, socialize in about a year. Relocating is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a rapid 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 learn English?

    Some people seem to have a natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in English will demand at least 600 hours of practice. The actual range of time can differ quite a bit depending on your current level of English or familiarity with 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 television, write by hand and online 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 a greater challenge than you had anticipated you can also take conversational English classes online.

    🤳 Can I choose my own English instructor?

    In learning centers, there's a likelyhood you could choose your own tutor (from a limited pool). Online, certainly! The largest selection of tested English tutors with extensive profiles and real student reviews is available on online language learning 'supermarkets' like Preply.

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

    Colleges as a rule offer classes two times weekly over a semester (15-week period). Language schools as a rule 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.
