English classes for immigrants and newcomers

Immigration puts you in rooms where your English is tested without warning: an appointment, a form you must explain, a manager who speaks fast, a landlord in a hurry. These classes are built for exactly those rooms, with live teachers rather than an app.

Free trial · No card required · Teachers speak English, French & Darija

In short

English classes for immigrants should be built around the real situations of arrival and settlement — appointments with administrations, job interviews, work, housing, banking, health and school for your children — rather than around a general textbook. Englify teaches these classes live on Google Meet, one-to-one or in groups of maximum six, with teachers based in Morocco who also speak French and Darija, so difficult structures can be explained in a language you already think in. Private classes are 100 MAD per hour, with monthly packs from 500 MAD for 4 hours up to 2,000 MAD for 20 hours; adult group classes are 250 MAD for one month, 650 MAD for three months and 1,000 MAD for six months. The placement test and the first class are free, and you keep the same teacher after you move.

Who these classes are for

  • Adults in the middle of a visa, residency or family reunification process
  • People who have just arrived and have to function in English immediately

  • Anyone who reads English reasonably well but cannot speak it under pressure

What we work on, in the order it becomes urgent

Newcomers rarely need more grammar theory first. They need to get through specific conversations this month. So we start from what is on your calendar and work backwards into the language it requires.

  • Explaining your situation clearly: who you are, why you are here, what you need
  • Appointments and administration: asking for clarification, saying you did not understand, confirming what was decided
  • Job interviews and the first weeks at work: your experience, questions, asking for help
  • Housing, banking and health vocabulary — the first three months
  • Phone calls, which are harder than face-to-face and are usually avoided until they cannot be
  • School and children: talking to teachers and understanding letters home

Why live teachers, and not only an app

Apps build vocabulary and habit, and they are useful. What they do not do is let you fail safely in a real conversation with someone who reacts, interrupts and asks again. That is the exact skill an appointment or an interview demands.

Our teachers are based in Morocco and speak French and Darija, so when a structure will not click in English, it is explained in a language you already think in and then practised in English until it holds.

Private hours or a small group

One-to-one is faster when you have a date: an interview, an appointment, a start date. The whole hour follows your file.

A small group is better value when your deadline is further away and confidence is the real problem. Groups are capped at six students, so you speak in every session.

  • Private, per hour: 100 MAD
  • 4 hours a month — 500 MAD
  • 8 hours a month — 900 MAD
  • 12 hours a month — 1,200 MAD
  • 16 hours a month — 1,700 MAD
  • 20 hours a month — 2,000 MAD
  • Adult group classes: 250 MAD / 1 month, 650 MAD / 3 months, 1,000 MAD / 6 months (maximum 6 students)

How to start

  • Take the free level test for an honest CEFR estimate instead of a guess
  • Book a free first class and bring your real deadline or appointment
  • Choose private hours or a group based on that conversation
  • Ask for evening or weekend slots if you are working

Frequently asked questions

Do you offer English classes for immigrants?
Yes. Classes are built around arrival and settlement situations: appointments with administrations, job interviews, work, housing, banking, health and school. They are live on Google Meet, one-to-one or in groups of maximum six, and the first class is free.
How much do the classes cost?
Private one-to-one classes are 100 MAD per hour. Monthly packs are 500 MAD for 4 hours, 900 MAD for 8, 1,200 MAD for 12, 1,700 MAD for 16 and 2,000 MAD for 20 hours. Adult group classes, capped at six students, are 250 MAD for one month, 650 MAD for three months and 1,000 MAD for six months. The placement test and the first class are free.
Can I continue the classes after I move to another country?
Yes. Everything is online on Google Meet, so you keep the same teacher and adjust the schedule to your new time zone — including during the first difficult weeks after arriving.
Can the teacher explain in French or Darija?
Yes. Our teachers are based in Morocco and speak French and Darija, so explanations can happen in a language you already think in before you practise in English.
I need English for a specific appointment next month. Is that possible?
Bring the appointment to the free first class. The teacher will tell you honestly what can be rehearsed in the time available, and what needs longer — including when the honest answer is that a month is not enough for everything.
Are there classes in the evening or at the weekend?
Yes. Evening and weekend slots exist because most adult students work. You agree the slots with your teacher and keep them.
