Many people are likely familiar with 51talk English, this online English training institution that has been around for many years. Initially, Li Na was its spokesperson, but now it is represented by the popular celebrity Wang Junkai. Ads for 51talk English can be seen on the subway and on various TV channels. Many people may only be aware of the existence of this institution, but they probably don’t know much about its specifics. As for how good 51talk English is, and whether it’s worth signing up for their services for children… As someone who has tried it, I’d like to share with you the advantages and disadvantages of 51talk English. I. Advantages of 51talk English: 1. 51talk English offers online classes, so there is flexibility in terms of class times; one can take classes at any time as long as a reservation is made in advance. 2. One-on-one tutoring is highly targeted; unlike some institutions that use a one-to-many teaching approach, this method allows the teacher to focus all their attention on the child, enabling them to identify the child’s weaknesses as soon as possible. Moreover, one-on-one tutoring encourages students to speak up boldly, as they don’t have to hesitate to speak because of other students around. 3,51talk’s fees for English lessons are relatively low; the average cost per lesson is around 50 yuan, which falls within a reasonable range and helps to reduce the financial burden on many families. II. Disadvantages of 51talk English: 1. 51talk English requires booking lessons with teachers in advance; the teaching style is relatively flexible, but the teacher changes for each lesson, which is not particularly suitable for children with weak adaptability. 2. The fees for Western and European teachers on 51talk English are relatively high, with each lesson costing around 150 yuan. Since 51talk English focuses on teachers from Southeast Asia, the costs there are lower; it depends on individual preferences. III. How is 51talk English? Share my real experience! The above is my summary of the advantages and disadvantages of 51talk English; you can use it as a reference. The most important thing is that the child likes it, so you might want to give it a try. When I signed my child up for classes, I also tried 51talk English; my child really liked this teaching style. However, the internet connection at that time wasn’t very good, which meant my child wasn’t very enthusiastic about attending the classes, and the overall experience was poor. As a result, I didn’t sign him up for classes through 51talk English right away. Later, on a friend’s recommendation, we chose another institution similar to 51talk English. However, compared to it, the institution where my child is studying now offers better value for money. If you’re interested, I think it would be a good idea to give it a try and compare several options; it might be more suitable for your child>>https://www.acadsoc.com.cn/vst/?id=182351
What’s 51talk English like? Let me talk about the general development history of this platform, which might help everyone decide better whether or not to choose it for their children. 51Talk started out by offering online adult English courses, but since 2014, the number of teenage users has grown rapidly. With the introduction of the policy allowing second children, 51Talk turned its attention to the K12 sector, focusing on online English courses for teenagers – this marked 51Talk’s first transformation. 51Talk, which relies on a low-price strategy, does not have many advantages. Moreover, in an effort to cut costs, it hires Filipino teachers, and issues such as their accents and cultural background become points of criticism from parents. To restore its image in the eyes of consumers and safeguard its brand reputation, 51Talk had to change its strategy and start moving toward a higher-end market. In 2017, 51Talk launched the premium-oriented brand \"Havo Online Small Class Sessions\", which offered one-on-one tutoring with foreign teachers from Europe and the United States. However, this did not lead to significant growth in 51Talk’s performance; on the contrary, the company incurred losses.
Thank you for the recommendation. I’ll take my child there in the evening to see how the classes are like. I’m also planning to enroll my child in an English training course these days, but I haven’t found one that’s suitable yet. At first, I also considered offline English training institutions, but given the current situation, online options are more suitable. Firstly, classes are more convenient, and secondly, the fees seem to be much lower. The institution you recommended is significantly cheaper compared to offline options.
51talk English was founded in 2011; it is an online English training institution for children, and it enjoys quite high popularity. 51talk relies primarily on foreign teachers from around the world, with these teachers coming from the United States, Canada, Europe, the Philippines, and other countries. Although the teaching format at 51talk Wuyou English is one-on-one, the foreign teachers are mobile and their class times are not fixed; parents need to make appointments.
When children learn English, interest is very important. Therefore, when choosing a children’s English class or a related course, it is recommended to put the child first and focus on what the child likes; parents should also consider which institution is suitable for their child. My child used to have no interest in English and was very resistant to it. I talked with the child and found that the reason why the child has no interest in English is that the teacher explains things in a very abstract manner without providing any practical methods, which is why the child doesn’t want to listen or learn. I signed my child up for one-on-one online tutoring with a foreign teacher; there’s no need to take the child to and from training classes, which is very convenient. Moreover, the one-on-one teacher teaches very well, adapting the teaching method to the child’s level and circumstances; the lessons are engaging, making it easy for the child to understand, and now the child is very eager to learn English. Free trial classes with foreign teachers available ； 【https://www.acadsoc.com.cn/vst/?id=182351】You can give it a try; the cost is quite low. For the annual course I enrolled in, each lesson costs less than 20 yuan. My child has made significant progress after studying for some time now, and I think it’s quite good, which is why I recommend it.
