About our language exchange-based English conversation programs for high school students and above and adults
It's casual and fun because everyone is learning the same language!
Palaygo does not have a teacher and student like a regular English conversation lesson! The other native speaker is learning English and you are learning Janpanese, so you are in the same position. As fellow language learners, you can encourage each other, teach each other languages, and enjoy casual communication and free talk through fun intercultural exchange.
Make your conversations smoother by using the various conversation topics and materials provided!
Palaygo offers a wide variety of conversation themes, as well as phrases and questions to promote conversation. By using these contents, you can effectively communicate your culture to people overseas in a foreign language while learning about the cultural background of others. Communication contents are available for each level.
A unique process of teaching each other about language and culture in detail (CF method)
Palaygo uses the Constructive Feedback Method (CF) in which participants teach each other English and Japanese face-to-face for 30 minutes each, using voice and text, and give each other constructive feedback. Since participants are on an equal footing, they can freely teach each other small grammatical mistakes, different expressions, and cultural phenomena.
One-on-one language lessons with a native speaker every week at an affordable price!
At an affordable price compared to other online language lessons and programmes, you can have real, one-to-one, realistic and learned communication with a native speaker from abroad every week using the language you are learning.
Unique technology enables accurate, high-level language operation and communication!
Palaygo's unique palette technology displays various phrases being studied in multiple languages, and prompts (automatically displays) appropriate expressions according to the time, place, and occasion, enabling you to communicate at a higher level in a foreign language than usual.
A system for solid preparation and review.
Pre-learning worksheets are provided for each talk session theme, so you can use them to prepare for the actual conversation. You can study and practice the expressions and vocabulary you want to try. You can also effectively review the feedback you received during the talk session.
