We recommend a website for IT professionals to practice oral English.

I have practiced spoken foreign languages in various ways, from talking with Chinese colleagues to finding foreign teachers who cost hundreds of dollars an hour, but it is hard to balance two things: Cost and effect.

However, this problem has been solved by our peers. The problem analysis is actually very simple:

1. Are there any foreigners with low costs but good foreign languages?

Answer: Yes. In fact, there are countless foreigners with relatively low incomes who use English as their mother tongue. Even in countries with low incomes but not their mother tongue, it is easy to find hundreds of foreign languages among the hundreds of millions of people.

The time zones in countries that are far away from the sky are quite different, but the Philippines in the same time zone as US (the total outsourcing volume in Europe and America is larger than that in China, so we can see the penetration rate of foreign languages), Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand ...... It is a good potential region.

Previously, the American SPR (software productivity Institute) had an office in Beijing upstairs in our company and now it has moved to the Philippines.

2. Is there a way for them to contact us face to face?

Answer: Yes. In fact, there are countless QQ chats every day, but few people want to use it to practice oral English.

However, there are already several websites that are doing this: they buy courses and courses on the website, teachers and students use Skype or QQ sites to practice, and the website serves as an intermediary for payment.

After these websites become popular, it is estimated that offline face-to-face oral training will become increasingly difficult.

I am now practicing on www.51talk.com. I heard that it was invested by shareholders of New Oriental. It is a model of Internet-based education institutions.

The course price is only about 25 yuan per half an hour, which is 1/5 ~ 1/15. If the monthly package can be half shorter, but only half an hour can be used every day.

There are a lot of teachers on the site, but most of the Philippines accent is strong, we recommend this majee Teacher: http://www.51talk.com/user/reserve_detail.php? Teacher_id = 951, the pronunciation is quite pure (it is much better than me anyway, haha ).

We recommend that you use the Skype video method. Both the image and voice quality are good. At first, I felt that the screen was unnecessary, but later I found that there was a sense of face-to-face communication.

You can also search for "51 talk teachers with good pronunciation" and other teachers on the Internet. After finding them, there will be a piece of speech for review.
