Parla

We decided to develop Parla because many people in the world still can’t afford hiring an English teacher or attending English courses as it’s rather expensive. There are many English learning apps, but most of them have a standard programme for training words and grammar. We believe that AI will change the way people learn, and will make education affordable to everyone and more effective. We started with English, but our plan is to "digitalize" all languages and all fields of education (like mathematics, physics etc). In Parla we used the following technology: * Parla’s algorithms analyse user’s data, mistakes, speed of learning - and basing on this data she builds up personal learning programme and tells user what to learn next. * Parla’s algorithm automatically defines when user has learned the new word or grammar rule, analysing the frequency of repeats an amount of mistakes, and builds the curve of forgetting for each word or rule. * Also we use Google’s Tensor Flow to entangle answer options. For example, for word «snow» answer options will be flow, blow, glow, rain, thunder, ice, storm. * Parla has algorithm, that analyses, in which skills user makes mistakes more often (reading, pronunciation, writing, translation or listening) and gives more exercises on the skill user makes more mistakes in. * Parla has her own emotions like a real teacher. If a student misses lessons or makes many mistakes - she can be angry and scold him. If student succeeds - she is happy. At the moment she has 5 moods. Sometimes she even says funny jokes. First version of Parla will be able to teach English to Spanish and Russian native speakers in 24 countries. She also will have an English-English version (to see how it works). We invite you to get «Early access» to Parla at our website: http://getparla.com Android users will get access code and link to app after filling up the form on the website. iOs users will get early access in 1-2 months. Please, remember, it’s a beta version, so if you find any bugs, please, share them with us at contact[at]parla.com so we can fix them. Thanks for your interest and support!

Thank you! Really good app!

Hoho 😍 😍 😍 I am in love with illustrations!

First Parla app was AI-based. New one is good, but it would be great to transfer AI experience to X version.

Pros:

New version is easy to use, clear and entertaining

Cons:

Without AI recommendations and similar to Duolinguo

For me app is the best way to practice every day, because it's simple unlike others apps.

Pros:

Clear and fun.

Cons:

addictive, but for me it is pros

Thanks a lot for this app! Some time ago I started learning Spanish with Parla from scratch. I would open it during a coffee break or so. I was quite surprised, that after only 2 weeks I went to Spain and felt quite confident asking for directions, ordering food and even having small talks with the locals. No useless old-fashioned phrases. It's like you guys knew what exactly I would need. Looking forward to new languages in the app!

I used app two weeks before the vacation in Mexico. To my surprise, I was able to solve all the problems in english and spanish at the airport and hotel without an translator! Great thanks!
