Question 1

At what age can my child start learning English?

Accepted Answer

Children can begin English for Kids with us from age 4, and our program runs to 15. Early lessons focus on listening, songs, and playful speaking; older learners move into reading, grammar, and conversation. At any starting age, your child is matched to the right CEFR level and pace, so the experience feels achievable, not overwhelming.

Question 2

How do online English classes for kids work?

Accepted Answer

Each session is a live, one-on-one video call between your child and a tutor, with no recorded video to watch passively. Our English Classes for Kids happen in real time, so the tutor adapts on the spot to how your child responds. You book a slot, join from any laptop or tablet, and the tutor guides the lesson with games, talking practice, and gentle correction.

Question 3

Are lessons one-on-one or in groups?

Accepted Answer

Every session is strictly one-on-one. Your child has the tutor's full attention for the entire lesson, with no other students sharing the time. This is what makes our English for Kids effective for shy or beginner learners: there's nowhere to hide, but no pressure from peers either. The tutor can slow down, repeat, or speed up based entirely on your child.

Question 4

Who are the tutors and how are they chosen?

Accepted Answer

We work with 200+ active tutors — native speakers or experienced English teachers who work with young learners, and every one of them is individually vetted before the first lesson. Our Online English Tutors for Kids are chosen for patience and warmth with children aged 4 to 15, not just language skill. The wider team brings 7+ years of online children's-education experience, so the teaching approach is built around how children learn.

Question 5

How long is each lesson and how often should we book?

Accepted Answer

Sessions come in two lengths: 25 or 50 minutes. Younger children often do well with shorter 25-minute classes that match their attention span, while older kids handle the longer format. For steady progress, many families book two to three times a week. Our English Lessons for Kids are flexible, so you can adjust the rhythm as your child grows.

Question 6

What if my child is a complete beginner?

Accepted Answer

Complete beginners are welcome, and a large share of our families start exactly there. The tutor begins at Pre-A1 with simple words, pictures, and plenty of encouragement, building confidence first. Because English for Kids is one-on-one, your child never feels behind. Each class is calibrated to what they already know, so the first words come naturally.

Question 7

How do you keep young children engaged and motivated?

Accepted Answer

Tutors use games, stories, visuals, and movement to hold attention, especially with our youngest learners. Because the classes are live and one-on-one, the tutor reads your child's mood and switches activities the moment focus dips. Our English Classes for Kids are designed so children feel they're playing, not studying, which keeps them asking for the next lesson.

Question 8

Can we try a lesson before committing?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Your first lesson is free, lasts 25 minutes, and needs no credit card to book. This trial lets your child meet a tutor and get a feel for the format, and lets you watch how the teaching works before deciding. It's a low-stakes way to see whether our approach to English for Kids fits your child, with no commitment or payment details required.

Question 9

What progress can I expect to see?

Accepted Answer

With regular practice, children build confident everyday English at their own pace. Early signs are small but encouraging: recognizing new words, answering questions, or speaking a full sentence unprompted. Over time, reading and grammar follow. We don't promise a fixed level by a fixed date, because every child differs, but consistent online English learning produces real, visible momentum your child will feel.

Question 10

What equipment or apps do we need?

Accepted Answer

Very little. You need a laptop, tablet, or computer with a camera, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Lessons run through a video call in the browser, so for most families there's no special software to install. The setup is built to start fast, so you can usually be ready for that first session within minutes of booking.

Question 11

How do you track my child's progress?

Accepted Answer

Your child is placed on the CEFR scale from Pre-A1 upward, giving a clear, recognized measure of where they stand. Tutors note what's mastered and what needs more practice, then adjust each lesson accordingly. Because the same tutor works closely with your child across sessions, progress stays continuous and personal rather than reduced to a one-off test score.

Question 12

Is the schedule flexible around school and time zones?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Our learners are spread across 100+ countries, so the platform is built for many time zones and busy school weeks. You choose lesson slots that fit around classes, homework, and family life, and adjust them as terms change. This flexibility lets families fit online English learning into already-full routines without it becoming another source of stress.

Question 13

What English level can my child reach?

Accepted Answer

Lessons cover the CEFR ladder from Pre-A1 through A1, A2, and into B1. That path takes a child from first words to holding confident everyday conversations, reading age-appropriate texts, and using grammar accurately. Our focus is general, usable language rather than narrow test cramming, so the level your child reaches is real and applies anywhere.

Question 14

Do you follow a structured curriculum?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Teaching is organized around CEFR levels, so each stage builds on the one before, covering vocabulary, grammar, reading, and speaking in balance. Within that structure, the tutor personalizes every session to your child's interests and pace. This blend keeps our English for Kids coherent and individual: a clear roadmap underneath, with flexibility to follow what motivates your learner.

Question 15

How is this different from English at school?

Accepted Answer

School classes usually mean one teacher and many pupils, with limited speaking time per child. Here, every session is one-on-one, so your child talks far more and gets instant, personal feedback. Our online English tutors adapt to your child's exact level instead of a class average. The result is faster, more confident speaking that complements school work rather than repeating it.

Question 16

Which languages can parents get support in?

Accepted Answer

While lessons themselves are taught in English, our platform and support are available in English, Russian, Spanish, and Polish, so parents can navigate booking, billing, and questions in a familiar language. This matters with young children, since you'll often organize schedules and talk through progress. Comfortable parent communication helps your child's English experience run smoothly for the whole family.

Question 17

How do you keep children safe online during lessons?

Accepted Answer

Safety is built into the format. Every class is a private, one-on-one video call between your child and a vetted tutor, with no open chat rooms or strangers able to join. Parents are welcome to sit nearby or watch. Because our Online English Tutors for Kids are carefully selected and work in a closed lesson space, you stay in control of your child's environment.

Question 18

How do we get started?

Accepted Answer

Getting started is simple. Book your free 25-minute trial lesson, with no credit card needed, and we'll match your child with a suitable tutor. Your child meets the tutor, tries a real session, and you see the approach firsthand. If it feels right, you choose a regular schedule of English Lessons for Kids that fits your family, and the learning journey begins.

Question 19

What if we don’t like the lessons?

Accepted Answer

You can request a refund within 14 days after your first payment.
We’ll return the money for all unused lessons.

Question 20

Can I change the tutor?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If your subscription is active (more than 14 days remaining and at least 2 lessons left), you can change your tutor in the “Subscriptions” section.

Question 21

Do you provide certificates after completion?

Accepted Answer

Since LearnLink is an independent platform where each tutor uses their own methodology, we do not issue formal academic certificates.

Question 22

Can two children study together?

Accepted Answer

Yes, there are two options:

one tutor with one subscription (children take turns)
separate subscriptions within one account (individual progress and schedules)

Question 23

Does a parent need to be present during lessons?

Accepted Answer

It depends on your child.
If it helps them feel more comfortable, you can join the first few lessons to support adaptation.

Most children feel confident from the very first lesson and can continue independently.
Follow your child’s comfort level.

Question 24

How much does it cost?

Accepted Answer

Lessons start from $8.4 each.
Learning is subscription-based:
