What is LinkedLingo?
LinkedLingo is a language website that connects native tutors from all over the world with people wishing to learn a language so that they can have private classes online using Skype. Basically, LinkedLingo is a substitute for traditional newspaper ads, but with many advantages.
What are the advantages of using LinkedLingo?
Choose among a great number of tutors, so that you can select aspects such as accent, schedule or background. As an example, if you are a lawyer who wishes to learn legal terms, we are able to connect you with a native lawyer willing to teach you.

How do I start learning?
Find the tutor that better works for you in the “Pick a tutor” tab. If you want further information contact your tutor via email pressing the “Contact tutor” button that you will find in his profile. If you want to start your classes right away book a trial class indicating your availability and the tutor will contact you by email to arrange for a class. Connect to Skype at the time agreed and you can start to learn the language!
How do I pay for a class?
Note that before paying you need to make an appointment with your tutor by email: Press the Contact tutor button that you will find in your tutor profile.
Once you have the class appointment, press “Book a class” or “Book 5 classes”. The process is exactly as if you were on Ebay or Amazon. Paying tutors directly is explicitly forbidden and we don’t take any responsibility for the class then. Furthermore, both the student and the tutor will lose access to LinkedLingo.

What is a free trial?
This is an opportunity to get to know your tutor. It takes around 10 minutes; enough time to get a feel for the teacher, discuss your objectives and be sure that you have found the tutor you are looking for. Most of our tutors offer a free trial and the process to book it is exactly the same as a regular class, contact the tutor by email using “Contact Tutor” tab or just select the “Free trial” tab when booking. The cost? None, it is free.
What are classes like?
They are the same as you would expect with a traditional private tutor. Each tutor will have his / her own style and they will tailor the classes to your needs.
How much does a lesson cost?
Each tutor chooses his or her own price. You can filter tutors by price so that you can match your budget. (Auto filter not available yet)
How do I give feedback to tutors?
After each class you will receive a very short questionnaire. Be sincere, they are anonymous.
