What is language exchange?
Tandem language learning is the process of joining forces with someone who is a native speaker of the language you want to learn. Through conversation with your Tandem partner, known as language exchange, you improve your language skills and develop intercultural competence.
Tandem’s core value is to unite people across borders through language learning. Languages hold great power for unity, inclusivity, and equality. Language and cultural exchange are keys to unlock global understanding in our increasingly interconnected world.
How to learn languages on Tandem:
1. Select the language(s) you want to learn in the app
2. Tell us about your language learning goals and your ideal Tandem partner
3. Search for native speakers of your target language in the community
4. Kick-off your language exchange experience by sending your first message
5. Share topics with the Tandem community so you can have meaningful conversations about what interests you
6. Keep up the conversation with your new Tandem “pen pal” and speak like a native in no time!

What’s New
Version 7.0.2
New on Tandem: our next-gen chat experience.
We’ve integrated a whole bunch of AI features to help improve you and your language partner’s conversations and get your language skills to new heights.
With Word Finder, you can easily search for the right word to say next (say bye bye to the language barrier!). Grammar Check fixes mistakes in your message drafts to help you build your language skills brick by brick. Inspire gives you endless conversation ideas — so the chatting never dries out and you can practice to your heart’s content.
… And there’s even more for you to discover inside the app! All of our AI tools were designed mindfully, ensuring that humans are - and always will be - at the centre of language learning.
Ratings and Reviews
Best app to find pen pals
After some negative experiences with other so-called language exchange apps, I’m really glad I was recommended to try Tandem.
Most users there really want to learn languages and don’t misuse it as a dating app.
Also, It was super easy to find people to talk with who are happy to help me. I was even contacted by an amateur teacher who gives me lessons every week. So I’m very excited about the results.
I’ve even taken their certificate, and to be honest, I was really pleasantly surprised by its quality.
The chat is nice as well, moreover, it offers many features making the communication easier.
So far I’ve only found two issues within the app:
1) There is a bug on changing the profile picture. I’ve reported it about two months ago, but so far the error still occurs.
2) It would nice to have an option to view people who want to learn my native language to help them (no matter what their nationality is). So far I can only see people speaking the language I am learning.
So it would be nice to change these things, however, the rating is still 5 stars for me.

Recommend
I really want to learn German and I found that HelloTalk is pretty good to start speaking... actually if you don’t pay it’s not but than I installed Tandem and it’s better it’s on the same principe but better you choose the topics and alle the people I’ve written yet we’re extremely nice to me, you can see who’s online and who’s not but most of the people answer pretty quick...
Highly recommend haven’t seen a mistake yet...

Hey, thanks for leaving us a review and we're glad you like our app! Best of luck with your language learning, Team Tandem :)
The best language exchange app there is.
I joined Tandem around two and a half years ago. I had a pretty basic english back then and I improved a ton just by speaking to people. I also find some great friends and to some of which I talk to this day. I can strongly recommend this app to anyone who’s interested in getting their practical language skills to the next level.
