Speechling: Learn Any Language

It’s not very helpful. The advertisement says you can practice as much as you want, but in fact, when there’s too much content, the coach becomes impatient and then just brushes it off. Some coaches simply read out a few basic words without telling you what needs improvement. Sometimes they even harshly belittle your abilities. Also, it seems like there aren’t many coach options available.

It is very inexpensive. You can record as many answers as you want, describe an image or read out loud something of your choosing. I find that I am committing to memory new vocabulary and grammar much more than doing quizzes or speaking with tutor once a week. All the above help but practising speaking out loud is what cements the learning.

Easy to use and great way to practise pronunciation. So far the best app for me to learn French.

My coach Giulia is awesome. It would be nice to have better mode for general feedback, along with specific pronunciation feedback.

Love the flashcard feature!

Speechling allows for self paced lessons and does not waste one’s attention with noise and graphics. Vocabulary is adult and practical for learners with a basic understanding of a given language.

I love all the features in this app! They are super practical and comprehensive for beginners. Especially the dictation and testing features.

I didn’t realize how terrible I was at speaking Spanish, until I tried to be speechling. It doesn’t matter how much I study vocabulary and grammar, and learn to listen to Spanish. Not practicing speaking Spanish. I left my speaking skills terribly bad. Speechling is the perfect tool for remediating that situation. I’ve seen nothing else quite like it.

As an intermediate in reading and listening but abysmal at speaking my TL this app is perfect. The only thing I wish it had was automatic playback of the native speaker after recording yourself in study mode. On the desktop website, when you record yourself in study mode it will replay your recording and then also the native recording. This is very useful to hear differences in pronunciation. However, in the app, for whatever reason, you have to manually press play on the native recording to play it back. I wish it were automatic like the website.

Everything is here. Can be confusing to begin with, but once you get it all figured out…Sky is the limit.
