Lindalva
I was a little bit skeptical in the beginning. I was used to studying with books and I was missing this. However, I quickly realized that it was the best tool I have ever found.

Andy
Through my own studies and the help of italki's tutors, I was able to receive a score of 7.5 on my first IELTS test.

Andy
It was a huge success, I not only was able to practice my English, but found confidence in my own English abilities.

Gianni
The results were exciting, I saw improvement in my ability to speak and understand exponentially and now I feel much more comfortable when I have to speak English.

Cassie
I have completed five lessons and am amazed at how much I have already learned. Not only does my teacher converse with me in Italian she also sends me worksheets and small sound clips that I work on at my own pace.

Joan
My skepticism was related to finding a tutor who would be flexible and encouraging but this was quickly erased after my first session when I could see that the tutor was hard working and very encouraging and understanding.

Celso
I have noticed a significant improvement in the way I learn English. I have even already had some interviews in English, something that was not possible a few months ago.

Yonathan
Two months have passed since I first started and I can say that I have seen great leaps forward in my Japanese. Since my first lesson with my tutor, I realized that he would help me improve exponentially.

Anna
italki is perfect for people who have little time, not enough budget to pay for a private tutor, and especially people who like the idea of talking with people from all around the world.
