Online English Courses with Native Teachers
Live lessons on Zoom with teachers from the USA, UK, Canada, Australia, South Africa and Ireland. Choose a track that matches your goal: speak more confidently, work in English, pass an exam, or write better. Lower-intermediate level and up (CEFR A2+).
An online English course at Live English is a series of live, one-to-one lessons on Zoom with a native English teacher. Sessions run 30 or 45 minutes, are taught entirely in English, and follow a track you choose: spoken English, business English, exam preparation, or writing. Teachers are selected for each track based on their background, so finance learners work with finance-experienced teachers, doctors with medical-experienced teachers, and so on.
