    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

    🌆 How do I improve my English in South Pasadena, CA and is possible to go light in terms of commitment?

    Besides self-study with special programs, you have a few primary options for learning English interactively in South Pasadena, CA. 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 cheaper.) Your other spource can be local for-profit 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. Last, you can choose a private English tutor in South Pasadena, CA. If flexibility is key, you can compare local South Pasadena, CA and online English tutors.

    🎟 Is it cheap 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 ten (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the rate for 45-48 instruction hours each semester. Language academies and private English tutors charge $30-55 an 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 location, positive reviews and student demand. 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 demonstrate proof of your current level. Predetermined curriculum classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework commitment and graded tasks, so research those in advance. With personal English tutors you can read real feedback for whom the tutor is effective with and which other specializations they make available (like classes for adults, etc.) For better flexibility, choose a tutor from those who are teaching online.

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

    Standardized 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 five hours a week you will be able to understand many words, be understood when you talk, shop and place orders in about a year. Offline interaction is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a fast and affordable 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 speakers.

    🤷 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 take at least 600 hours of dedication. The amount of time can differ quite a bit depending on your current level of English or knowledge of other languages in the same group. As soon as you've learned the basics it is a good idea to use the language as often as possible: watch videos, start a journal or write posts and comments 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.

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

    In language centers, there's a likelyhood you could choose your own tutor (from up to a dozen teachers). Online, of course! The largest selection of verified English tutors with full profiles and real student reviews is available on online language learning resources like Preply.

    🗓 What's the lesson schedule like?

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