Busuu adds the speech-based feature to its platform to help learners master speaking confidently in other languages

LONDON--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Busuu, a Chegg service and language learning provider with over 120 million registered users1, today unveiled the Busuu Conversations feature to empower language learners to speak confidently and naturally in their journey to achieve speech proficiency. Through artificial intelligence-simulated exchanges, Busuu users can practice two-way dialogues that mimic everyday scenarios and receive real-time feedback from AI on their performance.

Busuu Conversations provides language learners the opportunity to overcome some of their struggles with practicing their speech including fear of making mistakes, not having another person to practice with, and difficulty constructing sentences on the spot. The Conversations feature provides 24/7 help with AI, prompts to aid with sentence composition, and a safe space for making mistakes with personalized feedback. Users can also choose from realistic scenarios such as participating in work meetings, introducing themselves, and ordering at a café, all aimed to help language learners practice speaking confidently and making valuable connections in another language.

“Lacking confidence when speaking another language is the most cited barrier for our learners when preparing for real life conversations. This drove our development of product features that support practicing speaking,” said Gino Micacchi, Vice President of Product at Busuu. “Our newest Conversations feature takes language learning a step further by using AI to simulate a real-life dialogue and give feedback to help users learn interactively.”

Busuu Conversations is available for anyone learning English and Spanish, across all Busuu's 16 interface languages.2 Language learners can now build their speaking confidence with access to two powerful tools: Busuu’s latest AI-powered feature, Conversations, and ‘speaking practice,’ immersive lessons featuring videos of native speakers and personalized feedback, announced earlier this year.

Busuu courses are designed by language experts and cover all four areas needed to learn a language - listening, reading, writing, and speaking. Busuu Conversations is built into Busuu’s Complete English and Spanish Courses, which means users get a scaffolded learning experience, learning grammar, words, and phrases before they reach speaking exercises. Busuu’s platform is aimed to empower learners to confidently command the language in the real world.

Language learners can try Conversations and speaking practice now by downloading Busuu on Apple’s App Store.
