How Teacher4.me works for students

Find a teacher in 4 steps

1. Search. Go to Find a teacher. Search by name or skill (for example "IELTS" or "conversation"), or filter by subject, nationality and language.
2. Compare. Sort by recommended, price or rating. Open a few profiles to read each teacher's teaching style, subjects and reviews from other students.
3. Contact. Use the message, booking or trial links on the teacher's page. You don't need an account.
4. Learn. Agree on a time and book with the teacher directly. Lesson prices and packages are on each profile, in the teacher's own currency.

How to choose the right English teacher

• Start with your goal. Speaking confidence, an exam (IELTS, TOEIC, TOEFL, Eiken), work English or lessons for your child need different teachers. Look for that goal in the teacher's subjects.
• Read the reviews. Reviews from other students tell you how a teacher really teaches.
• Check languages and nationality. Some learners want a native English speaker; beginners may want a teacher who also speaks their language. You can filter for both.
• Check price and packages. Compare prices on the profiles and choose what fits your budget.
• Try before you commit. If a teacher offers a trial lesson on their profile, start with that.
