Teaching English and Portuguese online over 6 years I've been teaching kids, teenagers and adults from different countries over 6 years. So, working with these people helped me to understand some common struggles among students. I assisted these peers mainly with grammar, conversation practice, pronunciation, listening, and accent reduction. Most of my students after some classes became more confident to speak in English. They could understand me and other people, beyond achieving their goals like being admitted at job interviews and different applications.

Confident English for Work, Teams & Life Abroad You already know more English than you think. You read articles, watch videos, and understand most of what people say. But when it's your turn to speak, something stops you: you pause, translate in your head, or lose your sentence halfway through. That's not just a grammar problem. That's a speaking problem — and it's exactly what we work on together. Hi, I'm Vitaliy 👋 I'm an English teacher from Ukraine with 6+ years of experience. I also studied at a U.S. high school, so I know how English actually sounds in real life, not just in textbooks. I work with adults who already have a base in English but feel stuck when speaking: at work, in international communication, or in daily life abroad. This may be a good fit for you if you: – understand English well but feel slow or unsure when speaking – know what to say, but lose it halfway through – want to sound more natural, not just more correct In lessons, we work on the speaking process itself: – reacting without pausing to translate – keeping a conversation going when you can't find a word – structuring your thoughts while speaking – expressing your ideas clearly and naturally In our first lesson, I'll look at how you currently speak, understand what slows you down, and set one clear focus for the next lessons. No random topics — only focused practice based on your real speaking needs. If that sounds like what you've been looking for, I'd love to work with you. Book a lesson and let's see what we can build together 🙌

Forget the classroom. Let's have a real conversation. Hi! I'm Carmen, an American teacher living in Spain who genuinely believes the best way to learn English is to just… start talking. No stiff textbooks. No awkward drills. Just relaxed, judgment-free conversation that builds real confidence from day one. Here's something most teachers won't tell you: mistakes are the whole point. They're how your brain locks in new language. My classroom is a safe space where getting it wrong is celebrated, not corrected with a red pen. We'll laugh, we'll try again, and you'll walk away sounding more natural every single session. With a degree in Social Science, a 120-hour TEFL certification, and 10+ years of experience with all ages, I know how to meet you exactly where you are. Beginner or just needing a boost? I've got you. Along the way, we'll pick up cool American idioms. Ever wonder why someone says they're "under the weather" when they're feeling sick? We'll crack those mysteries together, and you'll start sounding like a native before you know it. Every lesson is built around your goals, your pace, and your personality. I'm patient, creative, and genuinely excited to see you grow. Whether you want to nail a job interview, travel confidently, or just finally feel comfortable speaking, I'm here for you. Let's talk. 🎉

Build your confidence in your spoken English with a teacher who cares! Let's get started! My dream for each and every one of my students is that they all feel the freedom and confidence to use English to communicate effectively. Striving for perfection is amazing, but I don't believe perfection needs to be the ultimate goal at all times. As your teacher, I want to empower you to believe that YES, you CAN speak English. Just because something you say isn't exactly like a "native" speaker, doesn't mean you aren't doing an amazing job using your new language. I want my students to be who they are, just in English.

British Pronunciation Coach | Accent Reduction for Clarity & Naturalness | B2+ Non-Native Speakers Tired of repeating yourself? Feel like people don't understand you even though your English is good? I'm a British English Pronunciation Coach. I help non-native speakers (B2+) who interact with British speakers sound clearer, more natural, and more confident. Here's how I work: I assess your speech (reading + spontaneous sample), identify your main pronunciation issues, and set priorities for the best results. Then we work on specific sounds and prosody (rhythm, stress, intonation, connected speech) step by step. You'll learn to hear sound and stress differences, catch your own mistakes, and self-correct in real time. You'll get personalised materials after every lesson: audio recordings, correction docs, and homework. Most students stay 10-12 sessions and leave with noticeable improvements, strong awareness, self-correction skills, and a toolkit to keep improving independently. Others stay longer and see bigger changes: sounding more natural, getting compliments, feeling confident. The reality: This takes time. Months, not weeks. And daily practice (5–15 minutes). But if you're serious, you'll develop a clearer, more natural sound. This is for you if: You interact regularly with British speakers (work, academic, or social), will practise daily, and see this as long-term. Skip this if: You want a quick fix, want to "sound native", need American English, mostly speak with non-native speakers, or you're below B2. Book a trial. Let's talk.

Hyperpolyglot, human parrot, sensationally verbose Hello everyone! My name is Amélie, I'm a writer and hold a masters degree in comparative literature. I am an expert in Latin American queer literature and culture. I am an official member of the Hyperpolyglot Association (HYPIA). My favourite singer is Fairuz, and my favourite poet is the Palestinian poet Mahmoud Darwish. I am passionate about Middle Eastern and South Asian languages, as well literature, linguistics, history, travelling, and more! The animal that describes me best is the parrot, since I am talkative and a great imitator! I take pride in welcoming the LGBTQ+ community and BIPOC communities, and I facilitate inclusion for refugees in the Montreal area. I have been teaching for over four years now, and I specialize in teaching French to immigrants. I have worked in the Chamber of Commerce of Montreal, in the "J'apprends le français" program, a program which allows small business owners and workers to learn French at their place of work. This program allowed me to perfect my teaching style, as well as appear on TV and podcasts to promote our approach. As of fall 2026, I also offer Spanish and English conversation lessons at a competitive price. Recently, I have launched a pilot project designed to facilitate French learning for immigrants, especially refugees in the Montreal area. Feel free to ask me about availabilities.

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.

How do italki's online English classes work?

italki’s online English classes are simple, flexible, and personalized:

  1. 📝 Browse tutors – After creating an account, browse through qualified English tutors with detailed profiles showing their teaching style, experience, and student reviews.
  2. 🎯 Choose your tutor – Filter by price, availability, specialization, or tutor type to find a tutor that fits your goals and schedule. Many offer trial lessons to help you find the right match.
  3. 💻 Book and attend lessons – Once you book a lesson, you’ll meet your online English tutor via italki’s video platform. Your tutor will assess your level, discuss your objectives, and tailor lessons to your needs.
  4. ⏱️ Learn at your pace – Classes are fully flexible and can be scheduled daily, weekly, or as often as you like. Between lessons, tutors often provide extra resources or conversation practice to help you progress learning English online.

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.

Where can I get an English tutor near me?

You can get an English tutor near you by using italki’s location filter to browse tutors from your country or region.

You can also explore English tutors in major cities like:

All lessons take place online through italki Classroom, providing personalized and convenient English tutoring wherever you are.
