Finding the Perfect English Courses for You

With the incredible number of English courses that can be found online, choosing the ones that can suit all of your needs can feel overwhelming. For this reason, we have put together a list of questions to ask yourself to find the perfect courses for you. And perhaps, you could find your perfect course here with us at English Language and Literature!

What level am I at?

If you’re barely starting to speak English, you should not sign up for an advanced class, and vice versa. Finding a course that sits at the right level for you—that challenges you without overwhelming you—is crucial in making the best out of your English learning journey. Otherwise, you may find yourself either bored or out of your depth!

Why do I want to learn English?

Do I need English just for everyday conversation? Do I need English for work? Do I need to learn the vocabulary for business? Do I need to improve my general fluency before diving into any of these three specializations? Setting a goal for what kind of English you wish to learn will help narrow down the choices in what course to choose. And what’s best, we offer courses for all these options here at English Language and Literature!

What about English Literature?

What about if you feel confident in your English communication skills and have a burning love for literature? At English Language and Literature, we offer the possibility of studying it! With our English Literature Graduation Level Guidance course you can immerse yourself in the fascinating world of English Literature. Perfect for the more academic-oriented learners!

Big group or individual classes?

Do you learn best with a lot of classmates learning by your side? Do you feel more comfortable participating in a small group setting? Or are one-on-one classes with dedicated attention what works best for you? Think about your years in school to find out what helped you progress in your learning, and choose the English course that best suits your needs in terms of size!

How much time do I have available?

In choosing between English courses, it is important to be realistic about the time you have in your hands. Choosing a class that asks you to meet 3 days per week and turn in a lot of homework may not be the best choice if you work a full-time job; a flexible schedule may work best. Don’t put too much on your own plate!

How many classes do I want?

Do you want a course that lasts several weeks? A few sessions? Consider the commitment you want to make before making it, so that no classes are wasted!

If after asking yourself all these questions you are still not sure of what course to choose, you can try them out! At English Language and Literature we offer the option of joining any of our courses for one singular class to see whether it’s the right fit for you.
