Why get started with Berlitz English lessons for beginners

Around 400 million people worldwide speak English, making it the most influential language in the world. Businesses are becoming increasingly international, requiring English language skills from their employees. Learning the language not only makes it easier to travel but also to consume international content on the internet and understand many favorite movies, television shows, and pop music in their original English.

The easiest way to learn English is with the Berlitz Method. This is a conversational teaching style that teaches vocabulary and grammar in the context of real-life situations and focuses on learning through conversation. Even with our beginner English courses, you can customize the course to your needs, giving you the confidence and skills to speak English from the start. Whatever your learning style or situation, we will tailor a program to help you learn English online, take face-to-face classes with a teacher, or learn independently through a self-study language program.
