Online Learning Success

Online Learning is everywhere. From MIT to IIT, and even emerging startups, there are hundreds of courses on every topic – from spoken languages to artificial intelligence. These courses are available and easy to access for anyone, anywhere. But do they really work? Does learning really happen? Can you learn online as well as they do offline? We believe they can-especially when you understand how to learn English online the right way.

Rule #1: Choose the right course

Before you pick that MIT course, ask yourself if you are ready for that course. It is critical to match the level of the online course to your preparedness and ability. Other considerations include course format, your learning style and cultural context.

Expert recommendation: Get a personalized learning course that adapts to your needs

Rule #2: Set clear goals and receive continuous feedback

It’s important to set clear goals and know if you are making progress. Feedback is the most important part of the learning process and continuous feedback at every stage will enable the learning process.

Expert recommendation: Select a course that has well-designed milestones and continuous evaluations.

Rule #3: Self-paced vs. Fixed schedules

Courses that are self-paced seem practical at the outset but, fall apart over time. To get the most out of an online course, select programs with fixed schedules that motivate you to keep up. If you can, set a time each day or week for learning.

Expert recommendation: Commit to a time-bound (synchronous) course with specific start and end dates.

Online courses open you up to a world of new skills, abilities and knowledge. Follow these simple rules and make learning a habit!
