Question 1

How much teaching experience do I need before DELTA?

Accepted Answer

Candidates typically need at least 1,500 hours of teaching experience and a lower-level qualification such as CELTA before starting DELTA.

Question 2

How many modules does DELTA have?

Accepted Answer

DELTA has three modules: Module 1 (exam-based, language and methodology knowledge), Module 2 (observed teaching practice and professional development), and Module 3 (an extended written assignment on a specialist area).

Question 3

Can I take DELTA modules separately?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the three DELTA modules can be taken separately and in different sessions, allowing candidates to space them around ongoing teaching work.

Question 4

Is DELTA equivalent to a master's degree?

Accepted Answer

DELTA is recognized in the UK as equivalent to a Level 7 postgraduate diploma, though it is a specialized teaching qualification rather than an academic master's degree.

Question 5

What happens if I can't attend a live class?

Accepted Answer

Every group class is recorded and available on your platform within hours. You can also reinforce the material 24/7 with our interactive exercises and AI tutor — so missing one session doesn't slow your progress. If you need a flexible schedule, ask us about Private Classes (you can reschedule and never miss a session).

Question 6

How long until I can actually speak English?

Accepted Answer

Depends on your starting point and your plan. Starting from zero with our 3 Courses/Month plan, most students reach strong conversational level (B2/C1) in 12 months and pass Cambridge B2 First by month 14. With 2 Courses/Month, expect 18 months. Faster than every traditional academy in the USA — that's the point of Langcom "Blended" method.

Question 7

Why is Langcom 4× faster than other academies?

Accepted Answer

Two reasons. First, the "Flipped Classroom" model: you study grammar and vocabulary on the platform before class, so your live class is 100% speaking — up to 8× more practice per session. Second, the AI tutor lets you practice between classes instead of waiting a week. The result: progress that takes 4 years elsewhere takes up to 9-12 months with us.

Question 8

Can I cancel or change plans?

Accepted Answer

Yes, anytime. Upgrade, downgrade or pause month to month — no penalties, no long-term contracts. If you change your mind in the first 7 days, we refund 100%.

Question 9

Who are the teachers? Are they native speakers?

Accepted Answer

Our teachers, national and foreigners, are certified bilingual professionals — selected for language mastery (C1/C2 level), teaching credentials, and communicative methodology. Many have international certifications. The goal isn't to study with a native speaker, it's to learn to speak like one — that's what our method delivers.

Question 10

I've tried other academies and apps. Why will this work for me?

Accepted Answer

Because the method is built on a different premise: you don't learn a language by memorizing rules — you learn by speaking. Apps like Duolingo give you no live practice. Traditional academies give you 5–12 minutes of speaking per 90-minute class. Langcom gives you up to 8× more speaking time, plus 24/7 self-study, plus a free certificate. 95% of our students pass their international exam on the first try. That's why it works

Question 11

How is Langcom different from apps like Duolingo or Open English?

Accepted Answer

Apps like Duolingo are great for casual practice, but they don't include live classes or an internationally-recognized certificate — so you can't prove your level for a job, university or visa. Open English does have live sessions, but they're mass group classes with rotating teachers and no official exam. Langcom gives you structured live classes with the same qualified teacher, a 24/7 AI platform for self-study, and the Cambridge, IELTS, TOEFL or Michigan exam included FREE.
