English for Exams and Work

Preparing for IELTS, TOEFL or job interviews? Use voice chat to practise speaking under light pressure: describe your hometown, explain your opinion on a topic, or talk about a past experience for two minutes, then ask your partner for feedback.

Everyday Phrases Worth Learning From Chat

"No worries" (it's fine), "fair enough" (I accept your point), "I'm down" (I'm happy to do it), "that's wild" (that's surprising), "my bad" (my mistake). Ask partners which phrases are common where they live.

Keep Yourself Safe While Practising

Practise on-platform, keep personal details private, and be wary of anyone offering paid "lessons" and asking for money upfront.
