How it works
Pick a language with an available lesson. We open a focused speaking flow tuned for that language (including accent targets where you see a country flag).
Practice phrases with instant feedback. Your progress is saved in this browser so you can pause and return on the same device.
When you are ready, create a free account to keep streaks, XP, and full course access across all your devices.

Common questions
Is it really free?
Yes. The interactive lesson is free to try in your browser. You do not need a subscription or even an account to start. We only ask you to sign up when you want to save your progress in the cloud or unlock the full course catalog.
Why are some languages marked Unavailable?
We list every language the platform is built to teach. A free public lesson is added per language as our team publishes a suitable interactive module. Unavailable only means a dedicated free lesson is not live yet, not that we do not support that language in courses.
What happens to my data?
Before you have an account, your practice session is stored only on your device. After you create an account, you can keep learning with progress synced to your FluentShip profile.
How is this different from a trial lesson with a teacher?
This page is for instant, self-serve speaking practice. For a live human trial, see our bookable trial options from pricing or the trial lesson flow after you are signed in.
