About Speak

Speak focuses on getting learners talking rather than drilling grammar. Each lesson teaches phrases and patterns native speakers use in real situations. You then repeat them in new contexts until they feel automatic, and finish with a back-and-forth conversation with the Speak Tutor, which gives feedback on what you said.

Courses are offered for Korean, Japanese, French, Spanish, Italian, English and Chinese. The app runs on iPhone and Android and can be started for free.

Strengths

  • Spoken practice with an AI tutor instead of a live teacher
  • Lessons built around phrases people actually use
  • Feedback on each conversation, repeatable as often as needed

Limitations

  • Limited set of languages
  • Proprietary app with a paid tier for full access
