How to have a great conversation on the App

We understand that having a great conversation can feel challenging—especially when speaking in a new language for the first time or when you're looking for more confidence and ideas on what to talk about. But don’t worry! We’ve got you covered with some simple and effective strategies to help you navigate and enjoy your conversations. Check them out below:

Plan Ahead with Topics & Questions

Make a list of topics that interest you and prepare a few questions for your partner. This not only helps keep the conversation flowing but also makes you feel more confident. A great tip? Practice answering your own questions! Your partner may ask you the same thing, and being prepared will help you feel more at ease.

Leverage a Shared Experience—Your English Journey!

A great icebreaker is talking about your English-learning experience. Ask your partner why they are learning English and what methods they find helpful. In return, share your own journey! This exchange can lead to an inspiring and motivating conversation.

Use Engaging Content as a Conversation Starter

Watching a lesson before your conversation can give you exciting topics to discuss, such as movies, favorite sports, travel, cultural curiosities, and more. We’ve recommended some lessons below:

💡 Pro Tip: Share something interesting you learned and relate it to your own experience. Then, invite your partner to do the same—it’s a great way to keep the conversation engaging and personal!

Most importantly, just go for it! Mistakes are part of the learning process, and the true goal isn’t to have a "perfect" conversation—it’s to connect, practice, and activate your English in a fun and natural way. Enjoy the journey! 🚀
