The Speechling Method
With a foundation in our mission, the Speechling Method uses a combination of technology and human coaching to help our students learn new languages.
We place an emphasis on speaking, because of the lack of free and affordable tools for helping people speak. By breaking down spoken language barriers, we hope to increase access to education, employment opportunities, and a better quality of life.
----------
Immersion
As a technology platform, we’re available as an educational tool 24/7. Speechling uses spaced repetition and sophisticated algorithms to let our users practice from thousands of sentences with real human voices from both genders.
----------
Personal Feedback
As a personal tutoring service, our certified pronunciation coaches give feedback on your speaking within 24 hours. Advanced students can answer a question or describe an image, and we will give feedback similar to what a private tutor will provide.

Ratings and Reviews
Speechling is the language tool I’ve been looking for!
I have been pursuing French for years and tried multiples sites and programs. I just discovered Speechling and it’s what I’ve been looking for!
They have the options I need. In particular, I have wanted to develop my pronunciation and my listening comprehension. With Speechling, I can practise through recorded mimicry or dictation, and then I can hear and see my errors and correct them immediately. Afterwards, the difficult sentences come back for review.
PLUS it’s free and accessible, with 10 feedback notes per month from a real tutor.
I haven’t explored it completely. I just jumped right in the first few exercises that were available but I am hooked and can give this glowing review without any hesitation.
It’s well-organized and well-designed! Thank you Speechling! I really appreciate your vision and ethics. I celebrate that you exist. After slogging along for so long, you are such a gift.
I appreciate the bite-sized chunks.
I have been trying to do dictations with YouTube videos. I pause it after every minute, but have to record the time when I stop and start, and have to keep finding my place again and again to repeat the sentence. I have gotten discouraged when it’s a 20 minute Tedtalk, and it’s taken me an hour to transcribe 2 minutes.
Yet using these YouTube videos with the subtitle options and slower playback speeds was the most effective free exercise I had discovered in my language-learning journey
Now, Speechling provides singular sentences, that I able to hear repeated at a click of a button, able to hear with slower playback, able to hear myself repeat, able to have tutor feedback, and able to review in a minute or 10 minute or 4 days. What an incredible tool!
Not authentic pronunciation
The coaches on the app all are correcting the recorded versions of the words. Take the time to hire authentic speakers in the first place. Very frustrating.
Amazing!
Please keep supporting this app! I just downloaded it a few days ago and I really think it could become my main method of learning! There’s every kind of practice you can think of including: writing down what you hear, describing pictures, recording pronunciation, and learning all kinds of new vocabulary and grammar. As a youth who struggles financially, I incredibly appreciate being able to learn without paying a subscription I can’t afford. Please keep doing what you’re doing! Thanks! :)
