Description

Practice languages with native speakers on HelloTalk! We recently introduced HelloTalk Live and Voiceroom - interactive language and culture events to help you master languages through the content you love!

HelloTalk, the original language exchange app, connects you with native speakers to practice languages (English, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, French, Mandarin Chinese, Portuguese, German, Italian, Russian, Arabic, Turkish, Hindi, Indonesian, Thai, Vietnamese and 150+ more) for FREE!

HelloTalk equips you with learning tools such as translation and instant captions so you can learn by chatting with native speakers. Learn languages from locals around the world through livestreams and Voicerooms. Connect with expert hosts to discuss interesting topics with language partners in the learning community!

Why HelloTalk?

► Real language learning atmosphere
Whether you're focused on a widely spoken language or a less common one, HelloTalk caters to your needs. The system smartly matches you based on your native language and proficiency, while allowing you to filter ideal language partners according to various criteria such as age, location, and gender. Plus, with built-in translation and transliteration tools, you can communicate confidently without any language barriers.

► A powerful tool for sharpening your language skills
Acquiring new words through conversations with native speakers is more effective than rigid memorization. Whether you're a student preparing for exams like the CET, GRE, TOEFL, IELTS, planning to study abroad, or a professional seeking career advancement through language skills, HelloTalk offers native speakers who match your proficiency level for engaging interactions and valuable learning experiences.

► Immersive multi-person language chat rooms
If you choose to learn Spanish, for example, every Voiceroom you enter on HelloTalk gathers Spanish learners and Spanish native speakers from around the world to discuss interesting topics. Here, only your voice needs to be heard, creating a comfortable, introvert-friendly atmosphere. Here, sharing mutual interests allows everyone to freely express themselves and share personal experiences, fostering both language intuition and authentic expression skills. It's incredibly addictive!

► Diverse global Livestreams
HelloTalk features handpicked foreign language hosts who offer online video lessons, share language insights, and provide glimpses into their lives abroad. You can even join them on stage for one-on-one video conversations with fellow language learners. Whether you're grappling with pronunciation, speaking speed, or shyness, these hosts will assist you in refining your language skills and guiding the conversation. For rapid improvement in spoken language, there's no substitute for direct communication with native speakers!

good grief no!!!!! ,

Great app and outstanding customer service

I have used this app for more than 4 years. I decided to buy the lifetime VIP membership and its really worth it. Unlimited translations and lots of languages to switch between eg you can change languages and learn multiple languages at the same time.
I think it works best if you are patient and prepared to give something back, as in make regular posts in your language to share so others can learn. Understanding that the beginner you are communicating with may only know a few words or can speak well but cannot write. Learning a language I think is like learning a Musical instrument, it takes regular practice, a good teacher and a chance to perform what you have learnt. Hellotalk gives you the tools to makes this possible and you will meet some great language partners to have regular exchanges. Really great app 10/10

Good app but unhelpful team

It’s a good social learning app unfortunately my experience with messaging their support team was nothing less than frustrating. Stupidly when setting up my account, I chose a language I wanted to learn as my nationality without realising I couldn’t change it later on. I simply asked them to change my nationality to English since I’m from an English speaking country (Aus) and can only teach English in exchange, but they refused to change it without proof of identity. I told them I do not want to send them my own personal documents/ID for my own safety but they still told me the same thing. Shame I won’t be using this app anymore now that I’ll have to teach myself a language (my ‘native’ language) before teaching someone else 😆
HelloTalk, maybe you can ask people for proof of nationality at the START of the setup to be fair???
Now I guess I’ll delete my current account and make another one with my ‘real’ nationality. 👍🏼 #bitterlol #wasteoftime #dontaskformypersonaldocuments
