English Conversation Practice

Practice speaking in English

Developed by TalkEnglish, English Conversation Practice is a free-to-download language app for practicing your English speaking skills. The loading bar moves slowly when you first install and launch the app, though. However, once you get past this initial hurdle, you’ll be able to access a plethora of English conversation dialogues, with topics ranging from nature to sports to U.S. holidays.

The frequent ad displays are bothersome here, but you can remove them by using real-world currency. Although English Conversation Practice is an online-based platform, you can purchase the offline mode if you want to use the app without connecting to the internet.

Record your own voice

Boasting more than a hundred conversation dialogues, the English Conversation Practice app is a great tool for improving your child’s or even your own English verbal skills. Some conversations center on doing school projects and going to picnics or vacations, which are perfect for children. Other dialogues, meanwhile, focus on career-related matters, such as requesting a raise, promotion, or time off from work.

All dialogues include audio that you can play in the Listen tab, allowing you to better hear the pronunciation of each word. The transcript of the dialogue is also in the same tab, so you can read it while listening to the audio. On the other hand, the Quiz tab contains questions related to the conversation, testing your reading comprehension. 

You can also select a Practice Partner, which is a character involved in the dialogue, in the Practice tab and read their respective lines aloud. Once you’re confident, proceed to the Record tab, choose a character — now referred to as a Conversation Partner — and record yourself speaking their lines. Though a bit awkward for some users, you can listen to your recordings, so you can evaluate your speaking skills.

A great app for your language endeavors

Whether you’re improving your verbal communication abilities, or helping your child become proficient in the English language, English Conversation Practice is a tool you must have in your arsenal. It contains plenty of conversation dialogues you can practice speaking at home. You can even record yourself reading these dialogues. However, be warned that this app contains ads, and the only way to have an ad-free experience is by spending money.
