une approche structurée mais très vivante At formal lessons I work with various textbooks as well as with my own materials. We can focus mostly on communication and listening comprehension or choose a more general approach towards learning. At informal conversation classes I make you talk as much as possible asking you lots of questions and correcting you in the chat so that you're able to review everything on your own afterwards. I can also make extra voice recordings if asked. Я хороший методист и работаю системно и последовательно по определённой программе, которая выстраивается с учётом ваших пожеланий. Часто с фокусом на эффективную коммуникацию и быстрое достижение уровня выживания. Времязатратные вещи даю в качестве д/з.

Note: My availability will be slightly limited in August due to the holidays. For lessons please contact me. I'm Alexander, pleased to meet you all! I'm half British, half Italian (I was born in the UK but I've always lived in Italy) and I'm very lucky to be fluent in both languages. I currently live in Sicily. I love learning new languages and learning about new cultures. I'm also passionate about writing and photography. I have been teaching English and Italian online since 2017 and have gained a great deal of experience. Moreover, I have two TEFL certificates and have taught here in Sicily privately. From time to time I also work as a translator. Ho acquisito molta esperienza insegnando Inglese e Italiano online dal 2017 fino ad oggi. Inoltre, ho due certificati TEFL e insegno privatamente qui in Sicilia. Ogni tanto lavoro come traduttore. My lessons mainly focus on conversation, as I truly believe that's the best way to learn a language, and our conversations can be about anything you want. Grammar is also important so I'll do my best to help you with it should it be necessary. I can also help you with your homework if needed. Le mie lezioni focalizzeranno principalmente sulla conversazione, dato che penso che sia il miglior modo per imparare una lingua, e le nostre conversazioni possono essere su qualsiasi cosa voi preferite. La grammatica è anche importante quindi, se necessario, cercherò di aiutarvi il più possibile. Posso anche aiutarvi con i vostri compiti.

American pronunciation expert — you can finally master speaking and listening with a polyglot coach! Currently learning 中文. MASTER AMERICAN PRONUNCIATION, learn to THINK in English, and express yourself fluently and fluidly. Beginner, intermediate, & advanced — all levels are welcome! Perhaps you'd like a teacher who actually knows how to learn languages — and is doing so successfully. Perhaps you could benefit working with a professional language-learner with decades of experience teaching teenagers and adults with busy lives like you. Phonology is my favorite “hack” — master it now, and your path will be a lot easier. The way you speak is the way hear, so if your pronunciation is off, your listening will be 10x more difficult. If you master the phonology & fix your pronunciation & accent now, everything will be a lot smoother going forward! Watch my video & WRITE ME BEFORE requesting our 1st lesson. Feel free to ask me how you can benefit from my expertise in phonology, phonetics, accent acquisition, grammar acquisition for fluency, pragmatic communication, US culture, etc., so that you can maximize your potential to thrive in an English-speaking environment. My specialties include phonology (phonetics, rhythm, intonation, etc), phonics, fluent grammar in real time conversation, self-expression in conversation & useful idiomatic expressions.

Nervous when you speak English? Top 1% on italki. Best Teacher of the Year in China, from 4,000. You studied English for years. You got better. You are still nervous when you speak. Your boss asks you a question. You freeze and search for words. Your ideas come out mixed up - this never happens in your own language. Someone else answers. You stay silent. Studying fills one gap - more information. Practice fills another - speak out. Neither makes you less nervous. That is a different problem, and it is the one I work on. What I have done Top 1% of teachers on italki - reached in 9 months, out of 7,300. Best Teacher of the Year 2018 in China, Meten International, from 4,000 teachers. 12,000 classes in China with professionals from Alibaba, Tencent and Huawei. 2 years with Qatar Insurance Group - 2,400 meetings with their managers and their bosses.

I built the hiring system, hired more than 120 people. I know what the person on the other side of the table looks for. IELTS Speaking 9.0 - the highest score. I never studied for it. 20,000 meetings. 70 countries. 10 years. I came to England at 16 and could not speak English. I know this feeling because I had it. How we start 30 minutes. Four questions: What do you need English for? What happens when you speak? What is it costing you? What did you try before, and why did it not work? Then I tell you what I see, and if I can help. Sometimes I say no. Book the meeting.

Our conversations always feel natural, engaging and really enjoyable.

    Eja is an amazing teacher! I’ve had more than 10 lessons with her since July, and I can already see a huge difference in my English. I use English every day at work, and not only do I feel much more confident, but my coworkers have also noticed my progress! Her lessons are completely personalized, and she explains everything step by step with patience and without any judgment. She brings great supporting materials, gives constant feedback, and pays attention to even the smallest details, from pronunciation to making your sentences sound more natural. What I love most is that you can actually see your progress. You always know what you’re improving and what you still need to work on. She also has such a wonderful energy that makes you feel comfortable speaking and making mistakes. I spent a lot of time looking for the right English teacher before finding Eja, and I’m so glad I found her.Thank you, Eja, for being such an important part of my English journey!

    My daughter has been taking lessons with Naomi for the past two years, and she absolutely loves them. 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. Naomi is kind, attentive, professional, and genuinely cares about her students. We are very happy to have found her and would highly recommend her as an English teacher.

    ⚠️ Warning: studying with Hala may turn your language lessons into unexpectedly interesting conversations. Hala is young, intelligent, and genuinely passionate about what she does. One of the things I enjoy most about learning with her is that you can talk to her about almost anything. Whether it’s something related to the lesson or a completely random topic like cybersecurity, AI, nature, global problems, technology, or culture, she usually has something interesting to add. What I also appreciate is her curiosity. She engages with the topic, asks questions, shares her own perspective, and is always open to a good debate — which makes the lessons much more interesting. And here’s the thing: for the level of effort, energy, and good vibes Hala brings, the price she charges feels almost like a rip-off — in the best way possible. If you’re looking for a teacher who is smart, passionate, curious, and easy to talk to, I can wholeheartedly recommend Hala.

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.

How much does an English tutor cost?

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?

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.
