HelloHai

Your children’s future depends on mastering languages.

In an ever more uncertain world, mastering spoken English is no longer a luxury but a necessity to get into the best schools and land the best jobs. Their future is being decided today.

A personal speaking coach, any time.

In the evening, at the weekend, before an oral exam: practise any time, on favourite topics.

Why do young French people speak so little English?

A living language is a spoken language.

Speaking and understanding are the heart of a language: that is why we call them living languages. Yet with 30 students per class in French high schools and about three hours of English a week, each student gets less than six minutes to speak, even if the teacher never said a word. Teachers simply do not have the time to train and correct everyone’s speaking. The result: speaking remains the weakest skill of French people. HelloHai brings what the classroom cannot: a speaking coach, every day, who corrects without ever judging.

With HelloHai

Thirty to a class, each student speaks a few minutes a week at best.

They speak as much as they want, every day, with a coach of their own.

The teacher cannot correct every student’s speaking.

Every sentence is corrected live, grammar and pronunciation word by word.

Fear of what others think: you keep quiet so as not to make mistakes.

Nobody is listening or judging: they finally dare to speak.

Speaking exams are prepared without practising out loud.

They rehearse Cambridge, IELTS, presentations and mock exams as often as needed.

Topics far from what they care about.

They talk about series, sport, video games and their future job.

Their coaches, all around the world
