Frequently Asked Questions
All learners hope to learn a language quickly. Some websites even promise to teach you English in three months. At Global Lingua, we want you to learn quickly, but we also want you to learn effectively and over the long term. To learn a language quickly, you need to study regularly (several times a week), vary your learning methods and take online courses to make sure you speak the language you're learning and have your mistakes corrected. Global Lingua online courses are ideal for learning a language quickly.
Yes, it is. Of course, it’s also advisable to vary the learning methods (exercises, watching films, writing) to ensure that you study all aspects of a language. But speaking with someone in the language being studied is still the best way to progress and feel comfortable.
Remember, to learn a language quickly and effectively, it is important to be consistent in your learning. It’s also recommended to practice the language regularly to get used to the pronunciation.

If you would like to know your level in English, Spanish, German or any other language, take our free assessment. Our test is based on the levels of the CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages), which allows a more accurate assessment based on listening, reading, speaking and writing.
Once you have purchased your course, your teacher will also take care of assessing your level during the first lesson. This will allow him/her to know which elements of language to focus on.
In order to purchase lessons, you need to create a profile on Global Lingua. After entering your information in the form, you will need to complete your registration by clicking on the link sent in your emails.

However, if you feel that the classes are not going as well as planned, it is possible to choose a new teacher, depending on the available schedule.
Global Lingua's courses are customizable and adapted to the needs of the students.
