Certified English and Russian teacher I'm a teacher that focuses on the students. I always try to make them talk and feel comfortable during the class. I'm not a strict person but I can be demanding in terms of studying, so the students could keep up moving towards their goals. I'm hard working and I prepare thoroughly for each class. I combine different types of activities to make classes dynamic and interesting. My working experience with kids and adults helped me to understand the nuances and key points. And also I study a lot as a teacher to be able to maintain and improve my professional skills.

Certified ESL teacher & coach with 9 years (more than 9,500 classes) of teaching experience! I've been teaching online with another company for 7.5 years and more than 8,000 classes. As a native English speaker, I understand that learning English will give the people I teach the ability to advance further in their lives than they would have the opportunity to do otherwise and I’m happy to be part of such an exciting prospect for each of them. Given the difficulty of learning a foreign language, I take time to get to know my students dreams, goals and needs and serve them as a coach as well as a teacher. I teach any level from intermediate to advanced with the highest degree of patience and respect honoring the time, commitment and willingness of those I work with.

Business English, Accent Reduction, General English, and Group Classes Available *NOTE* I DO NOT USE THE ITALKI APP. All lessons are held via Zoom. I also cannot respond to lesson requests less than 24 hours before the requested lesson time. Thank you for understanding! I love languages, traveling, and being outdoors. I've briefly studied many languages, and I speak Spanish at B2+ and Turkish at B1. I'm currently studying Czech. I travel whenever I can, and have been around the Americas and Europe. I also take every opportunity to be active by hiking, kayaking, climbing, diving, camping and cycling whenever I am in an area with natural beauty. I earned my degree in Education (with a focus on online learning and the adult learner), and earned my CELTA certificate in order to teach English full time. I love teaching English because I love languages and the process of learning them, and would like to help my students reach their goals in language learning. My Business English classes focus on making you more confident in your English business communication by actively discussing business topics. My general English lessons cover one topic each in a wide range of topics, including aspects of psychology, home life, current events, sports, environment and technology. All lesons are adjusted to meet the student's level. My main goal is to make students talk as much as possible, because only by actually speaking can speaking level be improved.

I have taught voice and piano in the United States and Costa Rica for some time. Other teaching language experiences have been with teaching English to Haitian refugees in Los Angeles in 1991, informally, tutoring and teaching English to Spanish speakers, and teaching Spanish to visiting guests in the country.

Certified teacher with 20+ years of experience | Conversational Lessons with guidance & feedback Hi! I'm Ricardo. I've been a professional teacher for over 20 years, in language institutes, schools, and as a private tutor. I was only six when I had my first contact with a foreign language (English), and languages and linguistics have been a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. I love private lessons because they allow me to focus on each student's needs and goals. My students often mention how calm and patient I am, and I believe this creates a comfortable environment where you can speak, make mistakes, and build confidence. My lessons are highly conversational and focused on helping you express yourself clearly and naturally. But we don't just chat! As we talk, I pay attention to pronunciation, intonation, vocabulary, and grammar. I believe understanding the structures you use is essential for communicating with clarity and accuracy. I'm also a language learner myself, currently studying Swedish, Finnish, and Romanian. This keeps me connected to the challenges and rewards of acquiring a new language. Having experienced many of the same difficulties my students face, I know what it feels like to learn a foreign language. My goal is to create relaxed, engaging lessons where you can talk a lot, receive useful feedback, and gradually become a more confident English/Portuguese speaker. I'm looking forward to meeting you and being part of your learning journey!

Friendly instructor dedicated to making learning natural, enjoyable, and effective! My favorite topics are culture, movies, sports, travel, video games, and technology. I love visiting art museums, so if you enjoy drawing or creating art, I’d love to see your work and hear about your inspiration! I also love athletics and played football and basketball and ran track through high school and into college. Professionally, I work in IT as a Product Director, so I’m always interested in discussing new and emerging technology. I also love traveling and recently visited China. My teaching experience began through a university program working with international students. I’ve taught English at different levels, from children just beginning to learn to tutoring native speakers in college. So, no matter your English level, don’t worry—we all have to start somewhere! My teaching style is flexible and depends on your goals. We can have casual conversations, prepare for a test, or focus on specific areas you want to improve. Even during casual conversations, I’ll actively listen and provide helpful feedback. I also love reading novels and articles with students. We can choose something that matches your level and work through it together at your own pace. My goal is to create a relaxed environment where you can build confidence, improve your English, and enjoy the process! P.S. I also created a daily English word puzzle called Word Golf by East Lumenz. You can find it with a quick Google search, and if you try it, I’d love to hear what you think!

    I've had nearly 50 classes with Aeva over the past year, and it's been wonderful every single time. As someone at an intermediate-to-advanced level, I was looking for well-organized classes with a clear direction, and Aeva has been the absolute best teacher I've found so far. She is super flexible but always keeps the lessons professional. She gives practical advice and support to help me reach my goals, and she is just a genuinely sweet and kind person. It’s really hard to find a teacher who is the perfect fit, but if you're looking to improve or maintain your English at a high level, Aeva is hands down the best option for you!

    I booked a session to prepare for moderating an executive roundtable dinner in English, and it was far more than a language class. 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.

    Mia is a wonderful teacher for my 8-year-old son. Her lessons are well-planned and engaging. In our latest session they read Hiccups from the Oxford Reading Tree, and Andrew learned useful new words and phrases like "get rid of," "upside down" and "patting," each taught with clear examples from the story. After every lesson Mia sends detailed feedback, so I always know what he has covered and how he is progressing. Andrew enjoys her classes and is growing more confident in his reading and speaking. Highly recommended!

    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.

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.

Where can I find an English tutor?

You can find an online English tutor directly on italki’s Teacher Search page, where you’ll find over 4,000 certified English teachers for every need; whether you’re improving pronunciation, preparing for IELTS, or advancing your career.

All lessons take place online, so you can connect with an English tutor from anywhere, whether you’re at home, traveling, or between commitments. You aren’t limited to local options; you can choose from certified English teachers from all over the world, and tutors who specialize in your goals.

Use the filters to browse English tutors by price, availability, and specialization. Book a trial lesson to find the right fit, then schedule regular English lessons that suit your schedule.

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.
