What is The Berlitz Method?

The Berlitz Method is an immersive, target-language-only teaching approach that has been used since 1878. Instructors teach exclusively in the language you're learning, helping you think and respond naturally without translation. This proven method accelerates fluency by focusing on conversation and real-world communication from day one.

Things to consider when choosing an online English class

Selecting the best online English class is about more than just thinking about your end goals. In order to achieve those goals, you need to get the right training and that means choosing the right class option.

Here are a few things to consider before selecting an online English class:

Learning style

Nobody knows how you prefer to learn better than you. If you know that you learn better when you have direct access to a teacher in a one-on-one setting, than private English classes are probably the best best. Conversely, if you know that you prefer to learn on your own, than our self-paced English classes are a better option.

Personal schedule

If you asked any language learner how fast they want to learn, the answer is always as fast as possible. For many, though, that just isn't possible. Understanding your personal schedule and time will help you determine the best option. If you work a full-time job, have young children and have other priorities, you probably won't have the time to do private lessons.

Specific skills needed

When it comes to learning English, not everyone needs to be fluent. You may just need to understand some very specific language skills, such as travel, business or school. In that case, choosing a private program would be beneficial to customize your learning plan to target those specific skills, as opposed to a group class, where the learning plans are more structured.

Timeline

Not everyone needs to be able to speak English in a few weeks. If you are learning English as more of a hobby or as a long-term goal, you can select a less intensive program. On the other hand, if you need to learn English for a business trip in a month, it is best to opt for the most intensive option available.
