    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How to learn English in Pittsburgh, PA and is possible to go light in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study with mobile applications, you have several primary possibilities for learning English interactively in Pittsburgh, PA. First, universities and community colleges are an especially good idea for in-state residents. Also, ask about the centers for continuing education and professional studies (they are a little more affordable.) Your 2nd spource can be local commercial language academies that charge less and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, international learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Fourth, you can find a private English tutor in Pittsburgh, PA. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Pittsburgh, PA and online English tutors.

    🎟 Is it affordable 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 fifty or so lesson hours each semester. Language centers and independent English tutors charge $30-55 an hourly group lesson, with individual classes starting around $50 or more. Some of the better priced English tutors can be found online, with costs on Preply averaging 14 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor geography, experience and specialization. Customer review average for English lessons on Preply is 4.9 out of 5 stars.

    📚 How much English do I need to know 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 level and exams, 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 add-ons they make available (like intermediate level practice, advanced students etc.) For better flexibility, choose a tutor from those teaching online.

    🔥 Why is English so challenging and are there ways to learn it in a better way?

    Formal 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 expressions, express yourself, do most everyday tasks in about a year. Offline interaction is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a ready and enjoyable 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 just have a natural ability and learn languages quickly, but for most to go beyond the basics and gain working fluency in English will necessitate at least 600 hours of dedication. The actual range of time can differ a lot depending on your existing 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 television, start a journal or write posts and comments using your new language skills, seek native speakers to speak with, try additional 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.

    🤳 What are my options when choosing the English tutor?

    In language learning academies, there's a chance you can choose your own tutor (from a limited pool). Online, always! The largest selection of approved English tutors with video profiles and true reviews is available on online language learning platforms like Preply.

    🗓 What's the lesson schedule like?

    Colleges as a rule run classes twice a week over a semester (15-week period). Language schools offer 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.
