FAQ

Useful answers before launch

Getting started

Is LLH Speak separate from LLH Tutor?

It uses the same Language Learners Hub login, so you can move between structured lessons on LLH Tutor and real conversation practice on LLH Speak without creating a separate account.

Is this for complete beginners?

Yes. Beginners can use simple prompts, voice notes, patient partners and clear correction preferences to ease into real conversation rather than being thrown in at the deep end.

Do I need to already speak another language fluently?

No. LLH Speak matches you with people learning your language too, so the exchange goes both ways. You practise theirs, they practise yours, and neither of you needs to be fluent to start.

What languages are supported?

English, Spanish, French, German, Russian, Portuguese, Italian, Arabic, Mandarin, Japanese and Korean, with more likely to be added based on demand.

How it works

How does matching work?

The partner map matches you with people by language pair, level, goals, time zone and practice style. People with reciprocal language needs and shared interests are ranked higher, but you can still browse everyone else too.

What are conversation prompts?

Cards covering travel, work, culture, food and daily life that give a new conversation a reason to start, so you're not staring at a blank message box wondering what to say.

Can I practise speaking, not just typing?

Yes, voice notes let you record and send a message at your own pace, without the pressure of a live call.

How do corrections work?

You set your own correction style, gentle, detailed, grammar focused, pronunciation focused or casual, so partners know how you want feedback before they give it. Corrections attach to the exact message they refer to.

Can I save useful phrases?

Yes, the phrase shelf lets you save any message or correction from a real conversation with one tap, so you can revisit expressions you'd never find in a textbook.

Will there be live calls?

The first version focuses on profiles, matching, text chat, voice notes, saved phrases and correction requests. Live calls may come later.

Safety and privacy

How will the community stay safe?

Clear rules, reporting, blocking, profile controls, verified profile photos and message limits for new accounts. See our Community Guidelines for the full picture.

Can I block or report someone?

Yes, any time, directly from their profile or a conversation, with no need to justify it. Reports go to a real moderation team, not just an algorithm.

What happens if someone sends me an inappropriate image?

Images can't be shared until both people have exchanged at least one message first, and any account that violates our guidelines can be reported, warned or banned.

What data do you collect, and can I delete it?

See our Privacy Policy for the full breakdown. You can export or delete your LLH Speak data at any time from your profile settings.

Account and billing

Will this be included in one membership?

That is the model we are building toward. LLH Speak is designed to make an LLH membership feel more complete by adding real human practice alongside LLH Tutor.

Do I need a new password if I already use LLH Tutor?

No, LLH Speak and LLH Tutor share the same login. If you already have an account on one, the same email and password work on the other.

What happens to my account if I delete it?

Deleting your LLH Speak account removes your profile, photos, saved phrases and messages. Because your login is shared with LLH Tutor, it isn't deleted from there automatically, see our Privacy Policy for details.
