English Lessons (Group Or Private?) - English XP

preview

Skip to contentSo, you’ve decided you want to get more serious with your English studies and have decided to take lessons. The question is, would you prefer to join an English class or find a private tutor for one-to-one lessons? Let’s look at some of the advantages and disadvantages to both and help you make the right decision.Group lessons can be found in a number of places:-All of these can be slightly different in style (as well as cost!) The main difference though is between the college / university courses and everything else. These courses have a finite length (typically a number of years) and can cost a significant amount of money but will give you a credible certificate at the end of it which could be useful for things such as finding a job. The other classes still have merit but if an employer had to choose between someone who had done evening English classes for a few years vs someone who had completed a University degree then the person with the degree is most likely going to be the favourite choice.&nbsp;Thanks to the internet, one-to-one lessons are more popular and are becoming more affordable than ever before. You can browse a list of teachers from most countries and can have your lessons online. This is great as if you live in a country that doesn’t have many native English speakers then you can still have access to them.Alternatively if you prefer face to face contact (and not screen to screen) then you can still scout out local teachers and conduct lessons that way. The best places to look are on signboards in places like libraries / colleges etc or through directories such as Yell&nbsp;(UK) or other online directories.Being an English teacher myself, it is tricky trying to remain unbiased in this area. I have however tried my best to remain objective throughout this article.The last thing to say is that although you have some ideas for what is good and bad about both methods, the only way to find out what works best for you is to try these methods yourself. Maybe you are able to sit in on the first class of a course or find out more information online before committing. As I also said earlier, try a trial lesson with a private tutor and see if they are a “good fit”, if not then find someone else. Also remember that at the end of the day, you get out of education what you put in. Work hard and you will succeed, whichever path you take.
