To accurately assess your starting point, it’s essential to take an honest and thorough look at your strong and and weak skills. The Diagnostic Session helps you gain a full picture of your current skills and identify the hidden barriers that may have slowed your progress or growth.

With Alla's combined expertise in teaching methodology and coaching, it's easy to diagnose key issues and suggest practical solutions right during your 60-minute session. Alla's toolkit includes professional English assessments, interview-style questions, learning style diagnostics, and other tools for quick and accurate skill evaluation.

Before the session
• If you haven’t taken a comprehensive English skills test in the past 3–4 months, you will need to take an assessment test on 7 language skills. The test will take 40-60 minutes and will be assessed by Alla.
• You'll schedule a 60-minute session with Alla at your convenient time.

During the session:
• You will discuss your test results and have a full CEFR assessment of 7 skills (speaking, listening, reading, writing, grammar, vocabulary and pronunciation)
• We’ll take a closer look at your functional English — the language you need to succeed at professional settings (work-related tasks, job interviews and meetings in English).
• If you previously experienced any issues with maintaining your level or some of your skills, Alla will offer additional questions on learning habits and past experience to get to the root of the problem.
• As a result you’ll receive a clear, personalized learning plan with recommended courses, timelines, and program costs.

After the diagnostic and plan approval, Alla will match you with the right teacher, and you’ll agree on your start date and schedule. Her assistant will accompany you throughout your learning journey to make sure everything runs smoothly.

The diagnostic session costs €100, but you’ll receive a personal discount on your future courses that fully cover this cost. We’ll calculate a monthly study plan that fits your budget — most students spend around €120 per month studying with top-tier teachers.

95% of our students who took the Diagnostic Session with Alla improved their skills after the session!
