Non-native speaker here. For me learning English is mostly about listening and reading, podcasts more than anything

Also a one thing drove me crazy for years.

I hear/see a word I don't know → pause → switch to a translator app → type the word → switch back → and by then I've lost the context and half the motivation. Apple Podcasts even has transcripts now, which is great, but you still can't tap a word and see what it means right there.

So I started building a small thing for myself and it slowly grew into a real app. As my background is product design, not hardcore engineering — honestly, modern tools make it possible to build exactly what you want these days. I know how to make nice and usefull but maybe some functions may work incorrectly :)

What it ended up being: podcasts, YouTube and books in one place, transcripts where you tap a word and get the translation in context without stopping, and the words you save come back for review a few days later so they stick.

I made it for myself and how it will help other, will be very happy to build it with a community https://tryclue.app/

I'd be happy for any feedback or ideas, we're all trying to get better at this language one way or another

Hi everyone!

I'm currently at a B1 level in English, and my goal is to reach B2. I've been studying consistently, but I'd really like to hear from people who have already made this jump.

What helped you improve the most?

\- How much did you study each day?

\- What resources did you use?

\- What habits made the biggest difference?

\- Did you focus more on speaking, listening, reading, or writing?

\- At what point did you feel you had actually reached B2?

I'd really appreciate any tips, study routines, or personal experiences. Thanks in advance!

Hi everyone!

I'm an English tutor with 7 years of experience teaching English online. I specialize in teaching children, teenagers, and high school students, and I enjoy creating fun, patient, and engaging lessons that help learners become more confident in English.

I'm currently looking for students who are in the same or a similar time zone as the Philippines (UTC+8), so scheduling lessons will be convenient for both of us. Students from countries such as Japan, South Korea, China, Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan, Hong Kong, and other nearby regions are especially welcome.

Whether your child wants to improve conversational English, grammar, pronunciation, vocabulary, or prepare for school or interviews, I'd be happy to help!

📚 One-on-one online lessons

⏰ Flexible schedule within compatible time zones.

If you're interested or have any questions, feel free to send me a message. I'd love to help you or your child achieve your English goals!

Thank you! 😊

Currently I can understand what people are talking about in real life (I’m living in the US now), but it’s not good enough to speak the natural English, does anyone else related to this? (I guess a lot lol)

I prefer voice call so that we can practice speaking not just texting online. (I’m 25F btw) we can start from the topics that common hobbies first, for example, talking about the movies, music, cultural differences and so on.

Just dm me if you wanna practice with me!

Hi everyone, I would really like to have a friend who is learning English so we can practice together, my level is B2 , text me

Hi, I´m colombian, my level in this moment is B1, i want to practice with someone to improve my english skills.

Hi, I'm 18M, I have been studying and using English since childhood, not an native btw, I found out that my speaking has a ton of problems like I'm a bad public speaker and very weak in putting good impact on listener.

Some days are just too busy for a full hour study session, but short, focused practice can still make a difference. Reading a few paragraphs in English, listening to a short podcast while commuting, writing a couple of sentences, or learning one useful expression can all help keep the language active.

So, what do you do on busy days for English practise?

Who can speak English and interest in Chinese Language,if you interest we can gonna WhatsApp.

Hi everyone! I'm Lia, 19f from Ukraine. I'm looking for someone around my level to have casual conversations in English. We can start by chatting, and maybe later try voice or video calls if we both feel comfortable. Talking to someone from another country sounds really fun to me, but I'm still very nervous. So if you're nervous too, dm me. Let's be nervous together 😃

Please tell me your age, gender, and where you're from in your first messege!

Hi everyone!

I'm a university student from Argentina, and I'm trying to improve my English. My level isn't very high yet, but I'm studying every day.

I'd love to make friends with native English speakers or anyone who is fluent. If you're willing to chat, correct my mistakes, or give me some tips, I'd really appreciate it. I don't mind being corrected—that's how I learn!

Thank you so much!

¡Hola a todos!

Soy un estudiante universitario de Argentina y estoy intentando mejorar mi inglés. Mi nivel todavía no es muy alto, pero estudio todos los días y quiero seguir progresando.

Me gustaría conocer personas que hablen inglés, ya sean nativos o que lo dominen bien. Si alguien está dispuesto a conversar conmigo, corregir mis errores o darme algunos consejos para aprender mejor, se lo agradecería muchísimo. No me molesta que me corrijan; al contrario, creo que es una de las mejores formas de aprender.

Muchas gracias por leerme!

Hi everyone!

I’m a 23-year-old girl from China, and I’m looking for an English-speaking friend to practice English with.

My main goal is to improve my spoken English, make friends from different countries, and learn about different cultures. I think the best way to improve a language is through natural conversations, not just studying from textbooks.

My English is around an intermediate level. I can understand most conversations and express my ideas, but I still make grammar mistakes, sometimes can’t find the right words, and don’t always sound natural. I’d really appreciate it if you could correct me whenever I make mistakes.

In return, I’d be happy to help you learn Mandarin! I’m a native Chinese speaker, and I can help with pronunciation, daily conversations, grammar, Chinese characters, or anything you’re interested in. Whether you’re a complete beginner or already learning Chinese, I’d be glad to help.

A little about me:

🇨🇳 Native Mandarin speaker

🎬 I enjoy movies, music, traveling, and trying different foods.

🌏 I love learning about different cultures and meeting people from around the world.

😊 I’m easygoing, patient, and enjoy meaningful conversations.

I’m hoping to practice a few times a week. We can start by texting and move on to voice calls if we’re both comfortable.

If you’re looking for both a language partner and a new friend, feel free to send me a DM!

Looking forward to hearing from you! 😊

Hi! I have been living in America for 11 months. I’m a master’s student but my english level is definitely not enough for school. I want to start studying but I don’t know where to start. My level is somewhere between B1+ B2. My biggest problems are vocabulary and grammar. I can understand the sentences but can’t make my own sentences. I also can’t remember the new words that I learned. I really need some advice.
Thank you!!!

I created this English listening practice video for learners who want to improve their listening skills in a more natural way. Instead of focusing on isolated words or grammar exercises, this video uses a realistic conversation with clear pronunciation, subtitles, and everyday vocabulary that you would actually hear in real life.

Whether you're trying to understand native speakers more easily, expand your vocabulary, improve your pronunciation through shadowing, or simply get more exposure to English, I hope this video can be a useful resource. It's suitable for intermediate learners, but beginners can also benefit by following along with the subtitles.

I'm still improving my content, so I'd really appreciate any feedback. If you have suggestions about the pacing, audio, subtitles, or topics you'd like to see in future videos, let me know. I hope this helps someone on their English learning journey!

I'm trying to learn English, I'm trying my best, I'm not rich, would any of you teachers be kind enough to give one or two free sessions per month?

I'm willing to teach some Farsi too if you're interested in the language

it's a pretty good deal right?

my English level is intermediate, I'm fleunt but I still have a lot to work on

I think I should I work on my vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation

When you talk in your non-native language, your tone can change, your sense of humour can shift, and even the way you express your thoughts can feel different. While sometimes conversations become more direct, they can also become more reserved.

Because every language carries its own cultural norms, social expectations, and vocabulary, this makes perfect sense. If a language gives easier access to certain expressions or ways of thinking, it seems natural that behaviour would shift along with it.

So, do you change your personality, or the way you normally talk when you speak English?
