Conversation online, with your college

Most people understand more than they can say. Conversation practice gets you talking: chat with Tom about your day, travel and opinions, and he corrects you gently as you go.

Is it for me?

Conversation is a good fit if…

  • You understand English but find it hard to speak
  • You want to sound more natural and confident
  • You want to practise pronunciation without feeling shy

In the app

What you get in Conversation

Study at your own pace on your phone or computer. Free items are marked; EEC Premium opens the rest.

  • Everyday chats with Tom

    Free conversation, your day, travel and holidays, and opinions — pick a topic or let Tom choose.

  • Corrections your way

    Choose no corrections, gentle notes on screen, or spoken corrections. You get a report after every call.

  • “How do I say…?”

    Ask how to say any word or phrase. Tom says it slowly and the app checks each sound when you try.

  • Conversation course books

    Conversation books with audio and dialogues to listen to, then talk about.

Meet Tom,

your General English partner

Tom chats with you about everyday life and corrects you gently as you go.

Speak every day

Practise out loud, without feeling shy

Talking is the hardest skill to practise alone. With the AI partners you can speak whenever you like, as often as you like, and get a short report after every call.
