As a Lingoda student, you can download the class materials for free and use them at any time. After your class, you will also find a quiz to help you refresh and practice your new skills. There are also downloadable exercises available. All materials are uniquely created by Lingoda experts to align with CEFR standards. If you want to learn more about CEFR, read more here.
After scheduling a class on our platform, you will be able to join the class with 2-4 fellow students from around the world. The teacher will introduce themselves and begin teaching the lesson using learning materials that you can download at the end of class. You will be able to interact with the teacher and other students, but there is no pressure to do so. Towards the end of class, the teacher will recap the lesson and ensure everybody has understood the lesson. Both group and private classes are very effective with Lingoda, but it depends on your personal preferences what you’d like to do.
No, we are not a language learning app. We are an online language school. And like any school, we offer live classes with certified, native-speaking teachers. At Lingoda, we believe that nothing can replace live interaction and customised feedback from a real person.
Preparing to learn English online with us is simple. You need three things: a stable internet connection, a computer and the free video conferencing tool Zoom.
It depends. As is the case when learning any new skill, your progress depends on your efforts. If you would like to learn English online quickly, then we suggest that you make language learning a consistent habit. Also focus and participate in class and complete the downloadable materials at the end of each class for best results. It also depends on which of Lingoda’s online English language courses you choose, as some of our plans are more intensive than others.
Yes. With our Business English course, you will learn all important aspects of the language including grammar, sentence structure and pronunciation. The only difference is that the vocabulary and topics in our Business courses are specifically designed to help you succeed in your career.
Yes, it will. If you use English in any aspect of your work, you will be able to speak it more confidently by the end of your course. You will be able to improve your networking, presentation, negotiation and interview skills as well as your writing skills. You’ll also learn how to write job application letters and resumes perfectly.
Yes, it is. As English is the official language of the business world, it’s essential to have a good understanding of English to communicate effectively. Taking a Business English course online with Lingoda will improve your English and teach you specific terminology used in a workplace environment.
The difference between the two is that while a general English course covers a wide variety of topics, some relating to the workplace, Business English classes have a specific focus on content related to the professional world. In Business English lessons, you will learn phrases and terminology to use in the workplace. You will also learn how to prepare and perform in an interview, negotiate a contract, deal with meetings, criticism, feedback, schedule or cancel appointments, and network in a business environment. What you will learn in a Business English class is more specific to a work environment and will help you advance in a competitive market.
Like any language, learning a new language depends on your mother tongue. For some people, English (and so Business English) will be easier to learn than other languages. And for others, it will be more challenging. Certain phrases are more commonly used in English to communicate specific things, so a part of Business English lessons is to become familiar with those structures and colloquial expressions. However, the benefit of taking a Business English course when you’re in or about to enter the job market is that you will get regular opportunities to practise what you have learned.
Our business English course features language and situations taken from real meetings, at some of the most successful companies in the world. It is tailor-made with dedicated sections for topics such as negotiating skills, business correspondence and intercultural communication. Anyone who has ever worked in a company knows these are a big deal!
In all of our lessons we have a theory section followed by many activities to help you get confident speaking Business English. You will use your new Business English skills in a meaningful context, just as if you were working in a real company. What’s more, you can download our learning materials, even if you haven’t signed up. Perfect if you want to prepare for your class, or revise afterwards.
