American Dialect Coach | IDEA Field Researcher | Phonetic Mastery I provide high-resolution American Accent Reduction and English Pronunciation training for professionals. As a Field Researcher for the International Dialects of English Archive (IDEA), I specialize in the technical analysis of global speech patterns. I bring this level of academic rigor to every session, offering a systematic approach to clarity that standard tutoring cannot replicate. With over 1,000 lessons delivered, I provide a systematic, data-driven framework that standard tutoring cannot replicate. I offer a technical phonetic blueprint for those who require absolute precision. Each session isolates specific phonetic targets based on your unique linguistic substrate. We drill the physical mechanics of the speech organs until the accurate placement is mastered and becomes second nature. Real-Time Auditory Tracking The second half of each session focuses on conversational application. I monitor your primary targets while simultaneously tracking every sound mastered in previous sessions, ensuring your pronunciation remains stable in real-world scenarios. Instant Correction I provide real-time feedback. We identify and correct pronunciation errors the moment they occur, preventing the development of "bad" muscle memory and ensuring rapid, permanent improvement. Stop settling for "good enough" communication. If you are ready to gain full control over your speech using research-backed tools, I am ready to train you.

Certified TEFL and IELTS (Speaking) teacher with over 5 years of teaching experience My name is Nalini, and I'm from New Delhi, India. I speak English with an American accent as we lived there when I was very young, and I learned to speak English there as a child. I now live in Italy, speak B1 Level Italian and B2 level Spanish. I have been a volunteer for English-Spanish language exchanges for the last 6 years, and have been learning Italian for 3 years. This has helped me to understand and adjust to different learning styles and needs of different students. We will go at your pace, and make sure you are comfortable during class. It is absolutely alright to make mistakes, I will help you with those and any doubts you have, and I will also encourage and motivate you a lot. I am patient and open-minded, we can talk about any topic you like, and the conversations will be interesting and light. Conversation is one of the best ways to begin "thinking directly" in English, and it removes the process of translating everything you want to say, and understand. We can have a relaxed conversation, you can ask questions, and use pictures, music or articles too. I want to help make things easier on your journey to your English goals. My focus is to help build confidence and fluency in English and help with your individual needs. The class will be personalized to your level and requirements. *If you don't see a convenient time slot, please send me a message and I will try to figure it out for you **Please note: I do not take lessons for children

French Teacher for Conversation & TCF Prep | Speak with Confidence Hello and welcome! Learning French is about much more than grammar and vocabulary. Sometimes, it's about finally feeling confident enough to speak without overthinking every sentence. Sometimes, it's about preparing for the TCF and achieving the score you need. Sometimes, it's about starting university or a job, building a new life, or simply feeling comfortable in everyday conversations. My name is Ryma, and I am a fifth-year medical student at Sorbonne University in Paris. Originally from Algeria, I grew up in a bilingual Arabic-French environment and have always been passionate about languages, learning, and meeting people from different cultures. Before moving to France for my studies, I took the TCF myself and obtained a perfect C2 score. Going through that experience taught me not only how the exam works, but also what it feels like to stress, learn and adapt. I can help you with: ✔ French conversation and speaking confidence ✔ TCF preparation ✔ French for studying and livining abraod. ✔ Pronunciation and fluency ✔ French for medicine, healthcare, and science Every student has their own goals and learning style, which is why I adapt each lesson to the person in front of me. My classes are supportive, interactive, and focused on helping you progress with confidence. I believe some of the best learning moments begin with a mistake, a question, or a moment of hesitation. Lessons can be conducted in French, English, or Arabic depending on your needs :)

Please read my lesson descriptions before booking. ********************************** GOOGLE MEET OR ZOOM ONLY (Zoom is limited to 30-minute lessons) I CAN'T USE ITALKI CLASSROOM BECAUSE IT DOESN'T WORK ON MY IPAD ********************************** Hi, my name's Allen, and I've loved words and language since I was a child. I'm 68, an American native English speaker, and I have a C2 level certification in German, which I acquired primarily through self-study. I was born in New York, but grew up in Canada, California, Virginia, the Philippines and Kansas, so I speak a neutral American English with little to no regional accent. I studied journalism, creative writing and German at the University of Kansas, and I like history, films and music. Although I’m not a professional teacher, I’m a native English speaker, and I can offer you a relaxed setting in which to practice your conversational English. The main thing is that you speak, and I’ll encourage you to relax and not be afraid of making mistakes. I’ll try to make corrections in a way that least interferes with your speaking. If you're learning German, I'm ready to help with any aspect of the language that’s causing you problems. Or, if you’d rather, we can just talk. I don’t teach beginners or children, and I don‘t offer a structured course in English or German. All lessons are via Google Meet or Zoom. No Italki Classroom. Please remember that it‘s not possible to cancel a lesson within 24 hours of the lesson time.

Ellen researched the topic in advance, helped me sharpen my ideas, and gave precise, practical feedback on pronunciation and on how I come across in the room. I left feeling genuinely ready. Highly recommended for anyone preparing for a high-stakes professional conversation or public speaking.

    I have been studying with Ed for more than three years, and finding him was a great success for me. My biggest problem was always listening. I knew grammar quite well and could speak, but understanding spoken English was difficult. Ed’s method is based mainly on real conversation. He helps you relax, stop worrying about mistakes, and simply start speaking. At some point, I was surprised to realize that we had already been talking for an hour, I understood everything, and the conversation felt completely natural. If you want to understand spoken English better and become more confident in speaking, Ed is a very professional teacher. He is also a very interesting person, and it is always enjoyable to talk with him about different topics. I do not often write reviews, but I am very happy to recommend Ed.

Primero comenzó con una evaluación de mi nivel de inglés, y como mi interés era el speaking se enfocó en esa área, fortaleciendo mis debilidades a través de ejercicios. Siempre mostró disponibilidad para ayudar incluso fuera de clases y me proveyó materiales de estudio. Por otra parte me ayudó con una presentación en inglés, lo cual agradezco muchísimo.

    James is an excellent teacher and a wonderful person. During our first lesson, he asked about my goals and suggested a plan. In our lessons, we work a lot on preparing for business interviews and learning how to talk about my work experience and projects. One of my main problems is nervousness. It is very difficult for me to answer unexpected questions. I start mixing up tenses and using the same words again and again. James helps me deal with my nervousness in a calm and friendly way. He also helps me sound more confident in English. It was especially important for me that he corrected my mistakes and pronunciation instead of only saying, “You’re doing great.” This really helps me improve and grow. I also really like the friendly and comfortable atmosphere during the lessons. We can laugh about some things, and this helps me stay involved and enjoy the learning process.

    Adam is turning into my English coach more than my English teacher. His new method aims to teach you a new way of learning a language. The ultimate goal of his classes is for you to become an independent student. He wants you to learn how to learn by yourself. The key point is to understand how the process of learning a language works and take advantage of it. Not only do his classes have plenty of content, but he also shows you a refreshing way of making notes, reviewing them, and making connections to transform all your passive English into active English. I've started using power tools like Anki, Obsidian, Youglish, Readlang and English-Corpora, a whole set of resources to take my English to the next level.

The lesson was engaging, and the material was well structured and perfectly suited to her level. I was also particularly impressed by Tom’s pronunciation. In my opinion, he has a very clear and easy-to-understand pronunciation, which is especially valuable for children who are learning English.

Frequently asked questions

How can I get fluent in English?

You can get fluent in English through consistent speaking practice with an English tutor who provides structured conversation and immediate feedback.

An online English tutor helps you build fluency by correcting mistakes in real time, teaching natural phrasing, and giving you regular opportunities to speak. They identify patterns holding you back and help you communicate confidently in real situations.

Most learners reach conversational fluency in 6–12 months with 3–4 English tutoring sessions per week. Your tutor can adjust lessons to focus on the speaking skills you need most.

How can I learn English online?

You can learn English online by combining lessons with an online English tutor and regular self-study practice.

Working with an English tutor online gives you personalized feedback, speaking practice, and guidance tailored to your goals. Between lessons, reinforce what you’ve learned through activities like watching shows, reading, listening to podcasts, or using language apps.

Most learners see steady progress by scheduling 2–3 sessions per week of online English tutoring and practicing for 20–30 minutes a day. Your English tutor can also recommend resources based on what you’re working on in lessons.

Are the English classes and courses suitable for beginners?

Yes, our English classes and courses are suitable for beginners. We understand that everyone has different learning levels and goals, and our experienced English teachers can adjust their teaching methods accordingly. Our beginner-level classes focus on building a strong foundation in the English language, including basic grammar, vocabulary, and pronunciation. Our teachers use various teaching techniques such as interactive activities, games, and multimedia resources to make the learning process fun and engaging.

Additionally, our one-on-one lessons allow beginners to receive personalized attention and guidance from their teacher. Our online platform also offers flexibility, which means that beginners can choose a suitable time and pace that suits their learning needs. Whether you are starting from scratch or have some prior knowledge of English, our classes and courses are tailored to meet your needs and help you progress to the next level.

How can I develop my English speaking skills?

You can develop your English speaking skills by working with an English tutor who specializes in conversation practice.

An online English tutor helps you improve by giving you opportunities to speak in every lesson, correcting pronunciation and grammar immediately, and teaching natural expressions used in real conversations. Regular English lessons build confidence and help you respond more naturally without overthinking.

Most learners see noticeable improvement with 2–3 English tutoring sessions per week. Your tutor can tailor lessons to practice the situations you need, whether professional communication, casual conversation, or presentations.

Can you learn English without a tutor?

Yes, you can learn English without a tutor, but most learners progress faster when they work with an English tutor.

An English tutor helps you:

  • 🗣️ Build correct pronunciation from the start
  • ✏️ Fix pronunciation and grammar issues before they become habits
  • 📅 Stay consistent with a clear study plan
  • 💬 Get real conversation practice, which self-study can’t provide

Many learners try to study only with apps, books, or videos, but it usually takes longer because you don’t get feedback, correction, or regular conversation time.

Using a platform like italki gives you access to experienced online English tutors for one-on-one lessons. When you combine English tutoring with extra resources such as apps or podcasts, your progress stays steady and more balanced.

How do I find a good English tutor on italki ?

Finding a good English tutor on italki is easy with filters.

  1. Narrow by price, native language, availability, and specialization (conversation, grammar, exam prep).
  2. Watch intro videos to check teaching style, and read student reviews to see how others rate their lessons.
  3. Start with a trial lesson to test compatibility.

A good English teacher adapts lessons to your goals, corrects mistakes constructively, maximizes speaking practice, and tracks progress. If the first tutor isn’t a fit, try another.

Yes, italki offers English tutors who specialize in different learning needs and goals.

You’ll find English tutors for beginners, English tutors for kids, and English tutors for adults, as well as tutors who focus on conversation practice, English grammar, or specialized areas like exam preparation (IELTS, TOEFL, TOEIC) and business English. Whatever your goal, there’s an English tutor for it.

How much does an English tutor cost?

English tutors on italki cost between $4 to $60 per hour, depending on the tutor’s experience and lesson format.

Many learners choose private English tutors because they provide personalized guidance, instant correction, and real conversation practice that help them progress faster than studying alone.

On italki, you have access to both community and professional tutors, making it easy to find an English tutor that matches your goals and budget. A 30-minute online English lesson typically costs between $4 and $10.

Is it worth getting an English tutor?

Yes, getting an English tutor is worth it if you want faster, noticeable progress in your English learning.

English tutoring is especially useful when you need guidance that adapts to your goals. With an online English tutor, you can focus on what matters most to you, rather than following a fixed course. An English tutor can help because:

  • 🎯 Lessons are tailored to your needs, whether it’s English lessons for beginners or English conversation classes
  • ✅ You get immediate feedback on pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary.
  • 🗣️ One-on-one sessions give you more time to speak and practice actively.
  • ⚡ Tutors adjust your English lessons and pace based on how you learn

Many learners combine online English tutoring with self-study, such as podcasts or reading, to reinforce what they learn and stay consistent between lessons.

Why should I use an English tutor to learn English with italki?

Using an English tutor on italki helps you learn the English you’ll actually use, not just textbook phrases, by focusing on real conversations, common expressions, and situations you encounter in daily life.

Your English tutor can help you practice conversation, review grammar, prepare for proficiency exams like IELTS or TOEFL, or build confidence in speaking, with lessons customized to your level and pace. They correct mistakes on the spot, suggest natural ways to phrase things, and explain cultural context, so you communicate appropriately in any situation.

All lessons are available anytime online, and most operate on a pay-as-you-go system, so you only pay for the English lessons you take. For learners looking for extra support, italki Plus also offers an optional subscription with features like AI-powered study tools, exclusive events, and discounts.

What is the difference between an italki Community tutor vs. Professional tutor?

The main difference between an italki community tutor and a professional tutor lies in their qualifications, teaching style, and focus.

Professional tutors are certified teachers with formal training. They offer structured lessons with prepared materials, covering grammar, vocabulary, and exam prep. They provide study resources and detailed feedback during online English lessons, making them ideal for beginners or students seeking systematic learning.

Community tutors, on the other hand, are native or fluent speakers without formal teaching credentials. They focus on English conversational practice, helping learners build fluency and confidence in a flexible, informal, and often more budget-friendly way.

Many learners use both: professional English tutors for foundational skills and community English tutors for speaking practice.
