The best way for kids to learn a language

We connect kids studying a foreign language with pen pals - native speakers their own age - for conversation practice.

30 minutes is all it takes

Students chat for 15 minutes in one language then 15 minutes in the other. All while being guided by team leads and curated prompts.

Learn faster

Improve pronunciation, listening comprehension, grammar, and vocabulary with regular conversation with a native speaker.

Grow curiosity

Cultivate empathy and curiosity through exposure to other cultures and ways of life. Boost self-confidence and foster friendship through peer-to-peer support.

A program tailored to your classroom’s needs

Teachers know best. So we built a program with maximum flexibility.

Choose when Lingo Pals sessions occur: during class or after school as homework or extra credit. Select partner schools based on specific accents. Invite parents to join the calls or keep them student only. Increase the frequency or the duration of sessions.

How it works

Introductory Call

Our partnerships team will set up an introductory call. To keep Lingo Pals safe and fun, our team vets every application.

Questionnaire

Answer a quick questionnaire so we can learn more about your classroom’s needs. In some cases, a language test may be required.

Match Day

Your students will be matched with native speakers their age. Our team will facilitate regular check ins to track progress.
