    Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

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

    Besides self-study with recorded courses, you have 4 primary opportunities for learning English interactively in Torrance, CA. 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 less pricey.) Your 2nd resource can be local private language academies that charge less and flexible in schedule and requirements. Third, not-for-profit learning centers usually offer cheaper group and more expensive in-person courses. Finally, you can opt for a private English tutor in Torrance, CA. If flexibility is key, you can compare local Torrance, CA 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 one-tenth of the yearly tuition (one course is usually 3 out of 30 credit hours offered) to get the price of 1/2 of a hundred lesson hours each semester. Language academies and independent English tutors charge $30-55 per hourly group lesson, with individual classes starting around $50 or more. Some of the more affordable English tutors can be found online, with rates on Preply averaging 14 and tutor rates varying widely based on tutor hometown, experience and specialization. Customer review average 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 prove your profeciency level. Predetermined curriculum classes vary widely in terms of textbook quality, homework volume and testing, so research those 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 intermediate level practice, advanced students etc.) For best flexibility, choose a tutor from many teaching online.

    🔥 Why is English so hard and are there ways to learn it more effectively?

    One-size-fits-all 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 many phrases, have simple conversations, do most everyday tasks in about a year. Finding native speakers is not a practical option for everyone, so online classes are a fast and easy 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 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 take at least 600 hours of active use. The actual range of time can differ significantly 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 recommended to use the language as often as possible: watch TV, write 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 instructor?

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

    🗓 What's the best time to schedule classes?

    Colleges structure classes twice a week over a semester (75-day period). Language schools usually make available shorter, 8-week, 12-week, and 16-week course sessions. Online, allows the flexibility to schedule lessons around your commitments, on weekdays and/or weekends.
