Find a private English tutor

The first step for having an online English course is to find a trusted teacher. Watch teacher introduction videos and read teacher profile information as well as student reviews.

Then, choose a favorite one. Once you confirm your English tutor, you can check his or her calendar. Schedule your lesson for a time that suits you. If you can't attend the lesson, please cancel it at least 24 hours in advance and reschedule it.

If your teacher confirms your lesson request, you can start your English learning journey. Connect with your teacher via Zoom, Skype, italki Classroom, or other tools on a desktop or mobile device.

Have 1-on-1 English lessons with your private tutor. It's a good way to learn English from a native English speaker or international English teacher. Your teacher will teach you according to your learning goals.

There are two types of teachers in italki, professional teachers and community teachers. Both of them are qualified and loved by their students.

Feel free to book English lessons with your private tutor. Just check the calendar with your teacher and book lessons from half hour, 45 minutes, to 1 hour.

An online English teacher or tutor is a person who gets in touch with you online and teaches you the English language no matter where you are. Taking lessons with an online English teacher saves your commute time, helps you learn English in a relaxed state, and allows you to learn at home.

But what is the difference between a classroom teacher and an online tutor? A classroom teacher is a professional who teaches as per the prescribed curriculum to some students in a rigid environment.
