Lingoda pricing works like a class subscription, not a course fee: you pick how many 60-minute live classes you want every four weeks, and English group classes start at $64.99 for 4 classes and drop to about $8.33 a class on the 48-class plan. There is no free plan, but there is a 7-day free trial and no coupon code is needed for it. I checked every figure on this page against Lingoda’s own pricing page in US dollars on 2 November 2026.
Below I cover the cheapest way to start, a table of every group and private plan, why German and Business English cost more, what the trial and refund rules actually say, and how I would pick a plan.

Free 7-day Lingoda trial: 3 group classes or 1 private class
Pick any monthly plan and the first 7 days are free, cancel before day 8 and you pay nothing, otherwise your plan bills every four weeks.
The trial is the cheapest real way to try Lingoda, because it gives you a few live classes before any money leaves your account. Just set a reminder for day 7, because the first four-week payment is charged automatically on day 8.
Lingoda Pricing 2026 at a Glance
Lingoda sells four plan sizes, and you can choose group classes with 3 to 5 students or private one-on-one classes. These are the regular USD prices Lingoda showed for English, which matched Spanish and French when I switched languages.
| Plan (every 4 weeks) | Group classes | Group cost per class | Private classes | Private cost per class |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 4 classes | $64.99 | about $16.25 | $159.99 | about $40.00 |
| 12 classes | $129.99 | about $10.83 | $319.99 | about $26.67 |
| 24 classes | $229.99 | about $9.58 | $479.99 | about $20.00 |
| 48 classes | $399.99 | about $8.33 | $799.99 | about $16.67 |
Prices checked on 2 November 2026 on lingoda.com in US dollars, before tax. Per-class figures are my own division of the plan price. Lingoda also shows prices in EUR, GBP and CHF, and the plan sizes and prices you see can change with the country you visit from, so confirm the final number at checkout.
Lingoda was running a Halloween sale when I checked: 20% off the first month of the 12, 24 and 48-class plans for new students, until 10 AM CET on 3 November 2026. The 4-class plan was not included, and the discount applies to the first payment only.
Lingoda Prices by Language
This is the part the old version of this page missed: Lingoda does not charge the same for every language. Here are the regular USD group class prices I saw for each language on the pricing page.
| Language | 4 classes | 12 classes | 24 classes | 48 classes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| English, Spanish, French | $64.99 | $129.99 | $229.99 | $399.99 |
| German | $84.99 | $169.99 | $299.99 | $529.99 |
| Business English | $94.99 | $189.99 | $339.99 | $599.99 |
Private classes follow the same pattern. English private classes run from $159.99 for 4 to $799.99 for 48, French from $149.99 to $849.99, and German from $184.99 to $1,049.99. Lingoda also teaches Italian, which I did not price separately, so check it on the pricing page if that is your language.
What Each Lingoda Plan Gets You
4 classes: try the format
Four classes every four weeks works out to roughly one class a week. It is the most expensive plan per class, and at that pace one CEFR level, which Lingoda says has 50 classes, would take you about a year. I would only stay on it to keep a language ticking over.
12 classes: the plan most learners start on
Twelve classes is about three a week, which Lingoda says gets you through a level in around four months. The price per group class drops to roughly $10.83 in English, and this is the plan Lingoda marks as popular.
24 and 48 classes: for fast progress
At 24 or 48 classes you are studying almost daily, and the cost per class falls to about $9.58 and $8.33 in English group classes. Lingoda says one class a day moves you up a level in just over 7 weeks. These plans only pay off if you actually book the classes, so be honest about your schedule.
Every plan includes 60-minute live classes with native-level teachers, classes you can book around the clock, more than 100 hours of self-study material, and a curriculum built on the CEFR levels. You can learn on the web or with the Lingoda app.
Free Trial, Refunds and Cancelling
- Free trial: 7 days, with 3 group classes or 1 private class. You get a reminder on day 6 and the first payment is taken on day 8.
- Money-back guarantee: cancel within 14 days of subscribing for a refund, minus the classes you have already taken.
- Cancelling: cancel before the end of a billing cycle and you will not be charged for the next one.
- Pausing: pause for up to 4 weeks, once per billing cycle.
- Changing plans: move up or down a plan size, starting from the next cycle.
- Rollover: unused credits roll over while you stay subscribed. Cancel a class at least 3 days ahead to get the credit back.
Lingoda also runs the Lingoda Sprint, a two-month bootcamp that pays back 50% or up to 100% of what you paid as cashback if you attend every class. When I checked, the last Sprint had ended and Lingoda was taking sign-ups for a waitlist.
Which Lingoda Plan Should You Choose?
- Just curious: take the free trial first and decide after three classes.
- Steady progress with a job: 12 group classes, about three a week.
- A deadline, like a move or an exam: 24 or 48 group classes.
- Shy about speaking in a group, or a niche goal: private classes, starting with the 4-class plan.
- Learning German: budget roughly 30% more than the English prices above.

Final Word on Lingoda Pricing 2026
Lingoda is not the cheapest way to learn a language, but for live classes with real teachers it is fairly priced, especially on the bigger plans. Start with the free trial, pick a plan you will genuinely use, and remember that German and Business English cost more than the headline prices.
