My Experience On iTalki! (As a Teacher and Student!)

iTalki is a platform where native speakers and teachers can help you to learn English through one to one lessons. I am both a student of French and a teacher of English on this website! Here is my honest review! (This video is not sponsored by iTalki)

I have an impression that community tutors are more searched when the people are more advanced on the language and want to pratice conversation

[@flashgordon6510]

Wow, it was great to hear I wasn't the only one who was super nervous about being a first-time student. I've been taking Japanese lessons with a great teacher for six weeks now (one lesson a week) and I love it. I did try a sample lesson from another teacher last year and didn't feel like she was very into it, so I kind of let everything slide, then decided to try again, and I'm really glad I did. Just wanted to add I'm paying $32/hour and it's worth it. As a self-employed person, I have no problem with paying for a worthwhile professional service.

I just signed up with italki to learn Korean, so it is nice to see your perspective on being both a student and teacher. Thank you for this very informative video!

[@EnglishTeacherRyan]

[@A123nn]

Thank you, it was very helpful and well-structured video.

[@daisydaffsforever723]

Thanks for the review. I did register with italki but havent got into the swing of it yet

I began to learn English, because of my favourite band in the Czech Republic. They're sometimes singing song in English. I had problem with it. I blamed them for it. But one day I said to myself that I want to understand English. I'm learning myself with my favourites English teachers from here. One of my homework is to speak with native speaker on Italki and fear is my the bigest enemy. I don't want to avoid this experience but I need more time to prepare myself for it. I am happy that I found someone who teach on this platform :-)

[@kristianamrhein3775]

Thanks for this very interesting explanation of your business

[@jeongin5]

Thank you for sharing good tips !

[@etriwijayanti9656]

Hey thank you so much for the awesome video..it's really helpful, hey I have a question, I wanna apply for professional teacher on Italki, I have a bachelor degree of English education and I have some experiences in teaching English in Indonesia so yeah I am native speaker of Indonesian language as well, but I am lil bit confused ...is it okay if I apply for English teacher on Italki based on my educational background? OrI should apply for Indonesian teacher on Italki because my first language is Indonesian? Thank you so much❤

[@hama9475]

thank you for the good information about italki..

[@amilton1015]

Thank you great lesson

This is a side hustle I can def see myself doing. Although, I have to get qualified first.

[@creativeDes2209]

Hi, I was recently approved for italki, I just want to know, was your very first teaching lesson stressful, and was the italki platform easy to understand and easy to work with.

[@margedtrumper9325]

Oh wait, you partner teaches Welsh? I might book some lessons with him in the future then 😊 about my experience with italki, as a teacher I was accepted as a pro teacher for the language I specialised in but I am not a native speaker so I get no students from there. I get more students through my personal platforms. As a student I am taking conversational classes and enjoy it

[@dragogx9677]

this is my first time, taking an italki class, I have fear and i don't know what teacher select. :( someone can help me please?

[@tante4dante]

i want to teach german(because it is my native language and there are way less german teachers than english), but the frustrating thing is that i looked into the goethe institute and for their easiest qualification you need to have already teached at least 500h.... but when i have teached so much, i already probably will have figured out how to teach! it makes so no sense at all! i would love some videos about teaching methods that are perhaps language independent? like good learning games to play with students or so... how to make the learning experience fun for the students... do you teach only 1on1 or also in groups? is this even possible on italki? i so want to teach, but feel so insecure about it :(

[@vaimes]

Do you teach German? 😅

[@carotheplaylistmaker]

Vidéo très intéressante 😉

[@Vishal._vp]

So would you prefer Italkie over duolingo?

[@MamoudouFofana-qb1vj]

Hi teacher I'm a new member of italki

[@SusanaMartinez-ky3nf]

I suppose that the vey first clases of half an hour It is only allowed once. Thanks.

[@mohammedalzorayqi6449]

I like you sooooo much from the bottom of my heart.

[@rizwancheema6038]

Great respect for you dear madam from pakistan.Long live like stars and moon.God bless you.

[@sabrinams2325]

I used it

[@davidbrisbane7206]

Actually, making mistakes is not the only way we learn. My experience has been that I get far more correct by myself than I ever get wrong. This I suspect is the same for everyone.

[@setokaiba2351]

Is it difficult to find students?

[@davidbrisbane7206]

Personally, I just want to chat with a native speaker and I'll teach myself the language. So, the tutor in my case doesn't need to be a highly qualified teacher. He or she just needs to have a generally good education.

[@htinlynn6035]

Which accent do you speak teacher?

[@filipholub1589]

I would say Birmingham accent. :)

[@htinlynn6035]

[@smashingenglish]

Hello! I have a Standard English accent with very subtle hints of a Black Country (Near Birmingham) accent! Hope that helps!

Remeber the teachers want you money and for you to keep booking so they will be super nice and understanding

[@AbdulMotin-kk4xn]

It would be better if italki charge less than 10% instead of 15%

[@staticsurfer1382]

you should try preply 😂

[@bennychill7228]

I have been on Italki for about a year. Everything seemed to be ok until a few days ago when Italki advised that as I haven't used my entire package that they will just forfit it! I guess neither you, nor your teacher should go on vacation during the duration of your package. Italki also has horrible customer service and I urge you to beware of this platform. Try Preply.
