Picking the right teacher for a language project


Download Episode

As part of my Indonesian project ahead of travelling through the country, I’ve been testing out different tutors to find one who truly suits my learning style. From filtering by dialect, availability, and budget on platforms like italki to booking trial lessons with multiple tutors in one week, I’ve refined a method that ensures I get the best fit for my needs. I’ll walk you through the steps, share my experiences, and explain why investing time in this process can make all the difference.

Whether you’re after a conversational approach or a tutor with structured lesson plans, these tips will help you connect with someone who complements your goals. Let me know your thoughts and share your experiences on Threads, BlueSky, or Instagram.
