Book ESL tutoring in Québec

ESL tutoring in Québec typically costs about $26/h per hour.

This rate can vary depending on several factors:

• The student's level (beginner, intermediate, or advanced)
• The tutor's qualifications and experience (TESOL or CELTA training, native speaker status)
• How often and how long you meet (weekly one-hour classes, intensive daily blocks)
• The lesson format (video call, face-to-face, or hybrid)

Booking a series of lessons often brings the per-session price down.

Most ESL courses use the Common European Framework of Reference, which ranges from A1 to C2.

• A1 (Beginner): You learn greetings, numbers, and simple phrases like "My name is…"
• A2 (Elementary): You follow short conversations on familiar topics and write simple messages.
• B1 (Intermediate): You express opinions, tell stories, and understand the main points of clear speech.
• B2  (Upper-Intermediate): You interact fluently enough that conversations with native speakers feel natural.
• C1 (Advanced): You produce clear, well-structured writing on complex subjects.
• C2 (Proficient): You summarize information from multiple sources and argue fine distinctions.

A private ESL tutor assesses your current level and designs a path to your target proficiency.

ESL instruction centres on four core abilities: listening, speaking, reading, and writing.

• Listening: the ability to understand spoken English in conversations, lectures, or media. This skill builds your ear for rhythm, stress patterns, and implied meaning.
• Speaking: producing clear, confident English in everyday and professional situations. A tutor gives you a safe space to make mistakes and refine your accent.
• Reading: building the input that fuels vocabulary growth and grammatical intuition. Wide reading improves spelling, expands word choice, and deepens cultural knowledge.
• Writing: composing texts ranging from text messages to formal reports. Feedback from a tutor helps you spot patterns in your errors.

One-on-one sessions let you strengthen weaker skills while maintaining progress in stronger ones.
