With twenty students in a lesson of one hour, a student may only speak for one minute or less. This isn't sufficient time to practise their English speaking skills.Many lessons that have lots of students spend time looking at grammar and doing written exercises or gap fills. This is one way of improving English knowledge but doesn't help the student with their speaking.An English speaking course is a one where the student improves their English through speaking. This is important because speaking, along with listening, is the hardest skill to acquire. This is because the student needs to think about their pronunciation, sentence order, vocabulary and more while speaking.Usually an English speaking course is one-to-one. This gives the student more time speaking English. Many private tutors offer these types of courses all over the world, but there is also a growing number of tutors who are teaching online.
