English course online: Learn where and when you want

The English language accompanies us at every turn, not only when traveling and making international contacts, but also in the form of numerous English terms in everyday language, when using computers and cell phones and in many areas of life, work and knowledge. English courses are therefore very popular.

The range of English courses available online is growing in parallel with the technological possibilities. The advantage of online English courses is that you can attend them wherever you are - provided you have a stable internet connection.

The options for learning English online are varied and differ not only in terms of technology and content, but also in terms of supervision, group size and time schedule:

  • WithAppsand onE-learning platformsWith interactive learning units, you can learn English individually, where, when and as quickly as you want, and exchange ideas with other learners in forums.
  • InOnline English courseswith fixed learning times and a real English teacher (so-called live tutor), you meet regularly with the teacher and your classmates via an Internet platform in the "virtual classroom" and work together and personally supervised towards the defined learning goal.
  • InCustomized online English coursesyou can individually agree your learning goal, learning pace, intensity and dates for virtual meetings with your live tutor. Tailor-made courses are available for the needs and learning objectives of individuals and groups as well as private individuals and companies.

Just like in real classrooms, online English courses are available at every level.Language level:From beginners with no previous knowledge to advanced language skills and preparation for internationalLanguage diplomas.You can choose between courses that focus on conversation and courses that also train written skills. There are also English courses that are specifically geared towards work, such as online courses in Business English in general or courses in Business English with various industry-specific focuses.

If you want to learn English without being tied to a specific location or having to travel long distances, an online course is the right choice. Apps and e-learning platforms are well suited to disciplined, very independent and experienced learners of English who want to learn when they want. Those who want individual motivation and learning support when learning English are better off meeting with experienced, "real" English teachers in a virtual classroom for a timetabled English course or for customized online individual or group lessons.


Questions and answers

Englisch können Sie auf vielerlei Arten lernen, alleine zu Hause mit Lern-CDs und Büchern, bei Sprachaufenthalten, in Sprachkursen in den Räumlichkeiten der Sprachschule, in Onlinekursen oder in einer Kombination aus Präsenzunterricht und Onlinekurs. Wer sich für einen Englischkurs online interessiert, der findet bei einigen Schulen äussert interessante Angebote, die für jeden das passende bieten. Der Vorteil an Onlinekursen ist gewiss der, dass Sie dann lernen können, wenn Sie Zeit und Motivation haben und dass Sie keinen Anfahrtsweg auf sich nehmen müssen. Ausserdem sind viele Onlinekurse mit Privatstunden mit einem Englischlehrer kombiniert, so dass Sie zu Hause die Ihnen zugeschickten Lektionen vorbereiten und mit einem Lehrer anschliessend via Webcam durchgehen. Dadurch lernen Sie intensiv und können das Erlernte gleich anwenden. Die Lehrperson konzentriert sich ausschliesslich auf Sie, so dass der Lernerfolg beachtlich ist. Doch auch bei Online-Unterricht mit Kleingruppen ist Ihr Fortschritt schnell sichtbar und durch die eigenständige, aber angeleitete Vor- und Nachbearbeitung zu Hause äusserst effektiv. Ein Englischkurs online ist keineswegs weniger gewinnbringend, als ein Sprachkurs an einer Sprachschule.

Many language schools offer interested parties the opportunity to try out a free, no-obligation trial lesson before registering for an English course online. The advantage of this is that you can get an overview of this type of language teaching and test whether it suits you at all. It is therefore always best to ask about the possibility of a free trial lesson before registering for a school.

Einige Online Sprachschulen bieten eigens für die Vorbereitung auf Sprachdiplome konzipierte Kurse an, die Sie sowohl im Hörverständnis, dem schriftlichen Ausdruck und dem Satzbau und Wortschatz, als auch im Leseverständnis und der mündlichen Kommunikation ausbilden. Auf diese Weise können Sie in einem Englischkurs online all das Lernen, was Sie für ein erfolgreiches Bestehen etwa einer der Cambridge Zertifikate benötigen. Dabei können Sie meist zwischen verschiedenen Diplome wählen, etwa dem Cambridge Preliminary English Test (PET), Cambridge First Certificate in English (FCE), dem Cambridge Agvanced Certificate (CAE) und dem Certificate of Proficiency in English (CPE). Auch auf Business-Prüfungen können Sie sind vielerorts in einem Englischkurs online vorbereiten, wie die Cambridge Business English Certificates (BEC) in drei unterschiedlichen Sprachleveln (Preliminary, Vantage, Higher). Manche Schulen bieten zudem Vorbereitungskurse für den TOEFL-Test oder andere englischsprachige Diplome an.
Es gibt mehrere unterschiedliche Kursmodelle, unter denen Sie für Ihren Englischkurs online wählen können. Jede Sprachschule hat dabei ihr ganz persönliches Konzept entwickelt, so dass Sie das für Sie passende erst einmal finden müssen. So stehen Ihnen zum einen Online-Sprachkurse zur Verfügung, bei denen Sie Unterrichtsmaterial bereitgestellt bekommen und das Sie bearbeiten können, wann immer es Ihnen danach ist. Dann gibt es Kurse, bei denen Sie dies genauso machen, aber zudem an Einzel- oder Gruppenunterricht teilnehmen, meist über eine Webcam. Diese Unterrichtszeiten finden entweder zu regelmässigen Uhrzeiten statt (etwa jede Stunde), an denen Sie teilnehmen können, wenn Sie möchten und sich frei aussuchen können. Oder aber der Englischkurs online findet zu genau festgelegten Zeiten statt (etwa Montag 18.30 bis 20.00 Uhr), an dem alle Teilnehmer aktiv mitarbeiten sollten, um nichts zu verpassen.

Auch bestehen die Möglichkeiten, dass Sie sich entweder vor Kursbeginn selbst für einen Tag oder eine Uhrzeit entscheiden (meist nur bei Einzelunterricht möglich) oder aber für jede einzelne Lektion Ihre Daten selbst bestimmen und somit äusserst flexibel sind. Sie selbst sollten entscheiden, welche dieser Varianten für Sie am besten ist und Ihren Lernerfolg steigert. Sollten Sie jetzt schon wissen, dass Sie sicherlich nicht jede Woche zur selben Uhrzeit zu Hause oder anderswo online sind, so ist ein Englischonlinekurs mit fixen Zeiten für Sie sicherlich nicht ideal. Überdenken Sie daher immer, welches Kursmodell für einen Englischkurs online Ihren persönlichen Bedürfnissen am ehesten entspricht.
