As the lingua franca of the world, English has become the common tongue for many business transactions and travelers as they crisscross the globe. The language originally came from England, later spreading through colonies and other forms of cultural exchange.

Despite its widespread use, English is not the easiest to learn. It’s not a phonetic language, meaning it’s not always spelled the way that it sounds. Also, the unique grammar can be a challenge for someone speaking it as a second language. That’s where ESL, or English as a Second Language, comes in.

FAQ

What are the basic English lessons?

The basic English lessons start with the essential grammar. This includes learning English pronouns, the “be” verbs, singular and plural nouns, as well as adjectives and adverbs. On top of this, learning the essential English vocabulary gives you a good basis of words to use in a simple conversation. Since English has a somewhat complicated grammar system, a good teacher can go a long way in helping you master the foundations of English. At TakeLessons, you can easily find a great English teacher and start learning as soon as possible

Is English easy to learn?

English is not exactly easy to learn. It’s not one of the hardest languages to learn, but it’s definitely not the easiest either. Learning English can be complicated by the complex grammar, hard to pronounce sounds, and large vocabulary. There are simpler sides to the language, too, such as the relatively easy verb conjugations. Learning English gets a lot easier with the right teacher, though. TakeLessons has a selection of some of the most qualified teachers available today for the best online ESL lessons.
