I love this app. I’m learning Italian and Spanish and have had a difficult time keeping conversation partners. Partly because it’s easy to lose interest (on both sides) and not build a connection on language exchange apps. Also, some people are more interested in flirting and being inappropriate rather than practicing a language. I paid for lessons with a teacher initially, but the cost became too much to sustain monthly. So I tried the free route for conversation practice and it wasn’t beneficial for me. Teacher AI is the perfect solution. It allows me to practice whenever I want in a safe space. I now have practice partners that never run out of things to say. I love that there are topics built in, so I don’t have to figure out what we should talk about. The AI teacher is prepared to start up a conversation about whatever I choose. When I say something incorrectly, my teacher repeats my sentence back to me, showing what I should have said. Teacher AI is a super helpful app, the developers quickly respond if there is an issue, and they are constantly improving the app. It’s an extremely valuable tool for what is provided, will help me achieve my speaking goals for much less than I’d spend hiring a teacher, and I can practice anytime and anywhere.

I’ve tried lots of this type of app. This is the best one. It feels like it’s created by someone who understands language learning. Most of these apps will speak with you or give you lessons, but there’s just not a lot of substance to them and they always miss the mark on the tools that actually drive learning. This app doesn’t force you to try to drive conversation in a language you can barely speak, instead it drives the conversation and lets you listen and respond. It also has tools that will show you where you made mistakes or how you could phrase things more naturally. The way that it restates your words and corrects makes the lessons stick much like they stick in real life when you make a mistake and are corrected.

This app is good overall, but a few things have honestly made me not want to use it as much. The biggest issue for me is how quickly it pressures you to respond. You only get about 5–10 seconds before the robot starts saying “Are you there?” That’s really frustrating because I need time to think. When I feel rushed, my thoughts get jumbled and my responses come out worse than they should. If I had more time, like 30 seconds to a minute, it would make a huge difference. I’d be able to think calmly and actually say what I want to say without feeling pressured.Another issue is how often it asks, “Is there something else you want to talk about?” One of the hardest parts of language learning is not always knowing what to talk about, so being asked that repeatedly doesn’t help. On top of that, there are many times when a conversation could naturally go deeper, but instead it cuts off too quickly and jumps straight to asking for a new topic. I’d much rather have more depth and follow-up questions.And when I do ask it for topic ideas, it keeps giving the same recycled suggestions over and over. I don’t want to talk about my favorite movie fifty times. I want more variety, creativity, and natural conversation flow.

This is SUCH a great language learning tool!!! And their support term is STELLAR!!!I’ve now been using this app for two years, I’m currently at the top of the leaderboard in the All Time section for Norwegian. I use it next to daily as possible. I speak small amounts of 28 languages and 4 I can converse in, even if with poor grammar. I’ve been interested in learning languages since I was around 10 and I’m now 49. This app is BY FAR all other ways I’ve used to learn a language. If you’re «just thinking» about signing up, do it!! I recommend signing up for the year to make it the most affordable over the year. And to justify it, MAKE sure you use it every day. This is only going to help you reach your goal, that much faster.
