We are committed to providing the highest quality free language education to anyone in the world.

----------

4. (Soon) Have others think you're native.

----------

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.

Unlike other for-profit companies, our platform is entirely free - for eternity. We aim to be build the best platform to learn a language with spaced repetition and adaptive learning algorithms.

----------

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.

Unlike other for-profit companies, our coaching is also free - but because it has significant overhead costs, we charge just enough to cover our costs and for those who demonstrate that they cannot afford that price, we provide full scholarships.

The concept and content are good but the app is buggy. The report mistake function is broken and favorite function does nothing because you can't study favorites separately. It's still good but the app would get 5 stars from me if you could browse through the sentences and make custom sets to review. Without this feature it's different to study at the right level.

Great app, but I found two errors on the first day. Also, I find it impossible to use the app to test whether I've mastered a given phrase because of ambiguity. For example, "Can you ..." could be 你可以。。。 or 你能。。。 Am I supposed to memorize for each phrase what is being expected as the Mandarin equivalent? Kind of impossible for hundreds of phrases since there are multiple ways to say the same thing. However, it's very much worth the price for the coach feedback on pronunciation.

so far I like the app. it is free, but the downside, the unlimited coaching is paid, steeply. the ten coaching sessions per month is too little deeming this part of the app next to useless. but I like that I can record my way of saying a word and listen to the native. the app's UI as in color scheme and built looks dated and very minimalistic but it's not a showstopper if it's working. now I wanted to ask if there is a chance of adding a language: Arabic? as it is a world spoken language.
