Kota
Hi! How was the tennis club today?
Your turn
Not reading. Not typing. Just talking.
A re-enactment of a real voice call (captions are a visual aid).
Picks up where they left off
Interests and recent topics carry over, so each conversation starts naturally instead of from zero.
Shows the English they used
After the call, see the phrases spoken aloud and the new language used in context.
Starter path
Even from zero, choose the right place to begin.
The alphabet is optional. Start with letters if A–Z is unfamiliar, or go straight to pictures and words. Both paths lead into short spoken exchanges with Kota.
A–Z PATH
Start with A–Z
See a letter, hear Kota, say it back, then connect it to a picture: “A is for apple.”
PICTURE + WORD PATH
Start with words
See the picture, hear it, say it back, recall it later, then use it in a tiny phrase.
