Former Lawyer, Now Qualified Teacher: English all levels & Business English, Job Interviews As a former lawyer, with a BA degree in English from Exeter University, Educated at the prestigious Harrow School, I love teaching English to my many clients who work in Finance, the Law, Industry and Tech (employees from Google, Software houses, Venture Capital ). My class preparing my clients for job interviews is popular and successful. A lot of my clients have had success in interviews after working with me and I will give you proven strategies to prepare you and boost your confidence. I teach clients how to "sell" their skills to employers. Please check out my reviews. We will practice conversation in real time and I will give you correction as we go along. Rather than complex rules of grammar, I will show you with real examples the correct use of English, and you will progress faster than you imagined. Alongside work that I do for interviews, is the work of CV Curriculum Vitae and Resume drafting. I will ensure that you do list your key skills and show you how to improve the layout. I will tailor specific tasks to help you in your business sector. For a student in real estate, we went to real estate websites to read and understand the articles there. One of my students was making a pitch to investors to raise funding for his business expansion and we looked at Investment vocabulary and then did a role play exercise where I was the investor, so that he made his pitch to me. I really look forward to helping you and I am confident I can help you move forward.

Learn English Like You’re Talking to a Friend! As a teacher, I focus on building a positive, relaxed environment where students feel safe to speak freely and grow. I know the fear of making mistakes can hold learners back greatly, so I encourage students to view errors as natural steps in the learning process. My style is approachable and chill, as if you're chatting with your native English friend rather than learning in a classroom. Whether your goal is sounding more like a native, improving your current language level, or just picking up a few more words - I’m here to help you achieve that. My goal is to meet you where you are, boost your confidence, and celebrate your progress.

Conversational & Confidence-Building Hi! I’m Sal, a native English speaker from the U.S. and a certified ESL educator. I hold a Cambridge CELTA, dual TEFL/TESOL certifications, and a B.A. in Psychology. I have over 4 years of experience helping international students build real-world fluency, having taught in South Korea and Australia with learners from all over the globe. Because I am a lifelong language learner myself (currently mastering Korean and Spanish), I deeply understand the challenges of speaking a new language. My goal is to give you a supportive space to grow. Outside of teaching, I love cycling, great coffee, exploring different cultures, and helping in my local community. I am patient, encouraging, and focus heavily on conversational confidence. Fluency comes first; I prioritize your ability to express yourself naturally over rigid grammar rules. Unless an error impacts communication, we won't interrupt your flow. Instead, we will track common mistakes and review them constructively together. My classes are relaxed and conversation-based. We will use modern resources like current news, media trends, and real-world topics that align with your lifestyle, hobbies, and routines. I use natural repetition so new vocabulary and idioms stick effortlessly. You are always welcome to bring your own materials - tailor every lesson to ensure it feels relevant and immediately useful to your life. Book a trial lesson, and let’s get started!

CELTA and DELTA qualified IELTS teacher, Former Cambridge Speaking examiner, Russian ТРКИ examiner Hello! I’m Yuri, an English and Russian teacher from St. Petersburg with 10+ years of experience, a Linguistics degree from St. Petersburg State University, CELTA and Cambridge DELTA qualifications. I specialise in IELTS and Academic English, teach TOEFL, and prepare students for TORFL (ТРКИ) as a certified examiner. If you understand English but freeze when you speak, keep making the same mistakes, feel stuck at IELTS 6.0–6.5, or simply don’t know what to study next, I can help you turn scattered knowledge into confident, usable language. My lessons are practical and personalised. We focus on what is actually holding you back: fluency, vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar, writing, exam strategy, or confidence. You won’t spend the lesson doing endless textbook exercises or listening to long lectures. You will speak, practise, get clear feedback, and leave knowing exactly what to improve next. I’ve helped hundreds of students achieve IELTS 7.0–8.5, and I have achieved IELTS Band 9.0 myself, including 9.0 in Writing and Speaking. I work with learners from beginner to advanced level. You don’t need to be “ready” or speak perfectly before booking a lesson. Come as you are, tell me your goal, and we’ll build a realistic plan to reach it.

Scots & English Language Teacher Hello! My name is Jared and I am a Scots and English teacher. I am excited to share my language with you. At home my family and I only speak Scots and Gaelic. I have been passionate about language for as long as I can remember. I love music, dance, video games, board games, and movies. Preserving the Scots and Gaelic languages is a deep passion of mine and the only way they keep going is for more people to start using them. If you have any interest in learning Scots, even just a little bit, I suggest giving it a least a try and seeing what makes it such a great language. Thank you! I also teach English. My focus is on conversation skills for the Academic, and the business minded but we can talk about anything really. Lessons are custom to each student as I like to find what the students' goals are and focus in on those. I have textbooks for both Scots and English for the more academic approach and have many books in both languages to work on vocabulary, comprehension, reading, and speaking aloud. I teach multiple dialects for Scots, and for English I prepared for teaching both casual and professional speech.

    Stanislav is a wonderful teacher! Our lessons are called "Discussions about weekly topics and news," and this format suits me perfectly. He always offers several articles to choose from, so we never run out of interesting topics. After just a few lessons, we built a great atmosphere where we can freely jump from world politics to video games =) Stanislav is interested in so many things that everyone can find something to talk about with him. What I appreciate most is how he adapts the conversation to my interests and always has something to add. He is also very punctual and charismatic. Thanks to him, I've noticed real progress: I can now start a conversation on any topic without hesitation. If you're looking for speaking practice at any level, I can't recommend Stanislav enough!

    I have been taking weekly classes with Ariadne for more than a year now, sometimes choosing Structured Speaking Practice and sometimes Free Conversation, and I always really enjoy our lessons. She creates such a pleasant and relaxed atmosphere, while at the same time giving really helpful corrections and suggestions. I especially appreciate the detailed written feedback after each lesson, which is extremely useful. Our Free Conversation lessons always feel very natural, and we discuss a wide range of interesting and varied topics. This has not only helped me expand my vocabulary, but also improved my fluency and, most importantly, my confidence when speaking English. The Structured Speaking Practice lessons are just as enjoyable and effective. Each session is thoughtfully structured—balancing speaking, listening, reading, and vocabulary practice in a perfect way. Ariadne is professional, punctual, always well-prepared, and I can recommend her without any hesitation.

    Smith老师是一位很好的老师,在跟着老师学习之前,我英语基础很差,很难开口说完整句子,目前距离第一次试课不到20天,上了5次课,加上日常练习和完成作业,已经可以针对一个话题说2-3分钟的口语(其实五分钟以上也可以)。Smith老师的一些学习方法也给了我一些深入学习英语的启发 非常非常幸运能遇到Smith老师 I initially came to italki because I felt completely stuck when trying to speak English out, and practicing on my own just wasn't working. Mrs. Smith is incredibly patient. She customizes the lessons based on my specific needs and speaks at a perfect pace. Whenever I don't understand something, she always finds a different way to explain it until I get it. She also makes sure to send me the lesson documents after class. After less than 20 days of learning with her, combined with my own practice, I can now speak continuously for 2-3 minutes on a given topic. She also taught me some highly effective learning methods, like how to internalize new language chunks into my own expressions. I am so grateful for Mrs. Smith's help. Thanks to her, learning English has actually become one of my hobbies now.

    I started having lessons with Abby before I began working in the U.S., and they've been super helpful. After talking about my goals and situation, she prepared customized lesson materials for me. We did about fifteen lessons using them and the they were exactly what I needed. She provided lesson notes in Google Docs so that I can review them later. I'd recommend her to anyone who wants to improve their English, especially those who have specific needs or goals. I'm looking forward to our future lessons. Thanks Abby!

Naomi takes the time to understand her interests and incorporates them into the learning process, which makes every lesson engaging and enjoyable. She quickly identifies the areas where my daughter needs additional support and works on them patiently and consistently. At the same time, she encourages her strengths and helps her become more confident in speaking English. The lessons are well structured but never boring, and I can see clear progress in both my daughter’s language skills and confidence.

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.
