The fastest and most effective way to be fluent is to be thrown to the ‘wild’ and be placed in a situation where they have no choice but to survive, in this case, speak the language. This is why learners experience tremendous improvement after staying and interacting with native speakers.

Practice Buddy's role is to create or simulate these ‘challenging environment' by speaking almost exclusively in the language.

Learners will book a Practice Buddy to meet online or at an agreed location. What Practice Buddy does during these sessions is to converse with learners.
