italki Reviews 

It's a nice app with a huge number of teachers with a variety of languages.
You can choose a teacher and an appropriate amount of time and days for yourself.

I dislike the emails from you are too many,I don't want too many remanders

Engaging instructor who establishes a comfortable environment for practicing the language.

Me encanta hablar con Lorena. ¡Es muy amable y servicial! “I love talking to Lorena. She is very friendly and helpful!“

I love learning Japanese on Italki. I found a wonderful teacher and Italki allow me to record my lessons, what can I ask more? I'm very happy with my learning experience on Italki.

Found great language teachers here, and liked the website features overall

I use italki to learn dutch for 5 months now.
It's so easy and lots of options of teachers.

Very good
Instructions

I highly recommend Kevin for OET preparition. As a Dr preparing for the OET. I've found his classes practical and well organised.
His typs are clear and specific. In one lesson, he explained exactly how to structure your letters. For speaking, he teaches the key stages of a consultation.He gives honest feedback.He points out what you did well and what needs to improve.Another strong point are his excellent resources including official OET guides, Notion app he has a Podcast and Youtube channel which are great to study between lessons.

I read a profile of a teacher , the site gave me the option to book a lesson. That is what I paid upfront for . After booking it then changed the info displayed to lesson requested . The teacher cut into my busy morning with a weird excuse about flying off on the day of the lesson, said I should re book wow ! They can not even update their own advertising? Yet are called a pro ? . I said tell me another time instead of just stating a free slot they kept up with a long chat during my busy week .

Prior to this another Gaelic teacher - same . Book a lesson then told it’s a request get a message their schedule is full . Yet Connor advertised and offered free times . I read what was offered and booked that .
That time I accepted the lost the value of my money and re booked even though I did not have the same money I brought in . Italki had the cheek not to issue a full refund. For Connor playing the system .
Connor still kept his times up and did not update .
Other Irish teachers have also been bad even when my cameras working one tried to pall a fast one then I fought them and won against her on appeal ( again taking up my time but only got back credit not the full amount. She crawled back under her rock but I still was being agressivly fed her profile even when I blocked this person on the day .
Incidently my feed always showed profiles of teachers who were not accepting new students. What’s worse the system pushed English teachers profiles on my feed . Yet my prefs were Irish I never searched for English teachers. Yet cause on Italkis terrible platform they get more people wanting to make bucks as an English teacher they just dump those profiles on my feed .

Finally in terms of Irish Then another teacher sent me weird questions before class that made no sense in any context . In retrospect it does seem like they were trying to stall the lesson or not honour what I paid upfront for . Again my time got sucked needing to take time out of a busy working day to read them and reply . That was Patchy conduct .

The system implicitly implies convenience book a lesson pay high premium for the convenience then get on with your day . The reality you book a lesson itslki get your full payment then , your told it’s only a mere request. The teacher sees your photo which will show your colour . They can then think . Reply waste time during a busy working day with confusing or irelavant text . Say no space or make an actual lesson uncomfortable.

The common denominator, is A untruthful booking system , where99 on average per cent aalmost every person who offers lessons has 5 stars . I talki claim they hide nothing they do they hide my review and during two years I only saw 5 -4:9 reviews. In all languages I checked and I did many .

Arantxa has been really great to work with.

The support and follow-up is exceptional. My tutor is even better...I could not have selected a better person to help me learn Italian. I highly recommend my tutor and iTalki to anyone looking to learn the Italian language.

Veronica is a super teacher. I have taken 50 classes with her..She is perfect for intermediant studens trying to break the glass ceiling. If you llike to practice speaking, she gives you space and corrects those those small errors that are holding you back. Give her a try.

Truly, if you’re asking, what made my experience great, it would be my sensei Ryuto. He is young full of energy, eager to help students engage and be able to speak better Japanese. He corrects you when needed, and will also help you rephrase to become a more casual Japanese speaker. He is truly an asset to italki. 先生お疲れ様。ありがとうございます。

Good App
To speak and learn freely

Very good teachers, structured and easy to understand the system. Some are expensive but it is generally worth the money, if you are looking for a Spanish teacher i recommend Pablo, 5 stars.

Sasa keeps the lesson postitive ,when i start having difficults.
Focuses on the positive and what needs extra work.

It helps me a lot for practice speaking and refreshing grammar.

One year ago, I was quite excited to film myself, infront of a more professional screen with a mic, only to apply as a German Teacher. So I recorded myself, by putting up all the filming equipment, including a mic for the Intro video.

I sent it to them & waited. Then they replied. Without a single explanation, they just rejected my application.

So i forgot about it soon & then one year later, Life hit hart again & I needed to earn some extra bucks. So I applied again.

This time I made absolutely sure I got everything alright. I prepared again everything, even a Teleprompter. Now I even look better then before, because im professionally looksmaxxing. Even added some creativity & a better background.

I went through their articles about how to make a proper video and followed the instructions to the point. I sent the application the following day. Then it was up to waiting.

SO I waited & waited. Then a couple days later something came back. I carefully opened the mail. And there it was again. WITHOUT A SINGLE EXPLANATION, another rejection.

So for what reason I can only speculate. Maybe they were Jealous of my looks? Or dont like Philosophy, as thats what im interested in? Maybe they dont like Germans?

And this is at a time where I really need some money. This people there should NEVER say they are good people. Because what they are doing is AMORAL & EVIL.

People like them are the reason some end up like the Joker from 2019.

But it is what it is. So I will defect to their enemies, PREPLY or VERBLING. Maybe they appreciate someone who adds some creativity & sense to the game of languages.

This website is a perfect place for gaining knowledge on languages - probably all of them. Teachers offer a trial lesson where they present their teaching method, and after that you can decide: how much money you want to spend on learning, with whom you would be learning, and what time of the day. It's very flexible, it could even be half an hour per week. The prices for a class vary a lot, depending on a teacher. If you have some technical issues, you can book a class through the website and have a class on another device. There's no more excuses if you want to learn a language. On Italki you can also teach languages and earn money.
