There are still a lot of countries that lack a high English literacy rate which causes problems in the new, global economy. Many people have come to realize the importance of learning English as a second language, and the lack of time constraints with online learning makes this ideal.
Location is also not a problem with online learning. You can take practice your English lessons if you live in South America or the south Bronx. It doesn't make a difference. If you have a good Internet connection, mail delivery for getting your books, a printer to download your lessons and the web to listen to native speakers, you can master the English language. If you don't have a personal computer in your home, libraries make computers and Internet access easily available.
Learn English online in your pajamas, after work, at 2 a.m. if that's the only time you have free to work. It doesn't matter when you study, and if you need to repeat a lesson, the computer doesn't mind. You can repeat material, re-read, listen to it more than once or watch a video of your lesson as many times as you need in order to understand it. This puts the power of learning in your hands. You can tailor your lessons to your needs.
Another big advantage to learning English online is that most lessons are free. While you don't have to leave your house to learn, you can also access lessons, resource materials and links for free. The quality of the lessons is excellent, and if you went to a language school, you would have to pay for travel costs, hardcover books and the actual cost of the school. Online English lessons are generally free, and you can download all the materials you need.
