🆚 JBK English vs. Large English Schools

A Cost and Service Comparison

💰 1. Class Cost Comparison

At JBK English, a 50-minute private class costs:

💡 $20 — General English
💼 $25 — Business English
📘 $30 — TOEFL or TOEIC Preparation

💸 In contrast, large English schools often charge $40–$60 or more per session, and many require pre-paid packages, which significantly increase the total cost.

🤔 2. Why Are Our Classes More Affordable?

Today, there are countless high-quality, free English-learning resources available online.
JBK English uses these intelligently to build a rich, effective curriculum—without expensive materials.

📚 A traditional textbook is used only for official exam preparation, helping keep your overall cost low.

✨ High-quality classes at a fair, transparent price.

🎥 3. Live Instruction vs. Pre-Recorded Content

Many large programs rely heavily on:

Pre-recorded videos
Apps and automated exercises
Minimal teacher interaction

👨‍🏫 At JBK English, every session is 100% live, taught by a state-certified ESL teacher with decades of experience.

📣 You receive real-time interaction, immediate support, and personalized feedback—every class.

👩‍🏫 4. Teacher Consistency and Experience

Large schools often rotate teachers, each with different teaching styles and expectations.

🔄 With JBK English, your instructor is always the director, who understands your:

Learning goals
Strengths and challenges
Personal progress over time

📈 This continuity builds trust and accelerates learning.

📚 Begin with 8 lessons in your first month
⏳ Continue with 2 or 4 live sessions per month
📝 Receive a custom self-study plan

💡 Save time and money—without losing expert guidance.

🔑 6. The Power of Independent Learning
