Virtual Language Exchange
MyDialog is an app which aims to make language learning fun, interactive and interesting. It provides users with a culturally immersive language exchange. It connects people with complementary language requirements and users improve and practise their language skills through messaging, video calls and MyDialog’s interactive language learning sessions. MyDialog’s sessions cover a range of topics, providing users with discussion material. Sessions are updated weekly to ensure that users can constantly broaden their learning as they are constantly exposed to new vocabulary and topics.
MyDialog combines three essential language learning elements in one tool:
Vocabulary aids
To broaden vocabulary and to prepare for a session, users learn the topic’s key words and verbs.
Users can click on the words to hear how they are pronounced.
Listening and visual aids
During a session, users improve their listening by watching a topic related video in a foreign language. Learning is reinforced as words previously learnt are heard in a specific context.
Verbal aids
Users are able to practise their speaking with their partner. They can use MyDialog’s conversation aids (specific questions based on the discussion topic) which help to structure conversations. Users apply the topic specific words they learnt and heard, reinforcing their learning.
This process transforms language learning into an interactive, culturally stimulating, immersive and engaging exercise, which builds fluency overtime

Here are some of the UK and French schools participating in our program 2019/20. We are looking forward to adding more schools from the UK, France, Spain, Germany, and Italy.
Hooking up users via video chat and hoping for the best outcome simply does not cut it. It’s difficult to know how to start a conversation with a stranger and most people, after the initial “where do you live?” and “do you prefer cats or dogs?” don’t know how to continue. That’s when our conversation aids come to the rescue!
We have created a number of guided sessions that include short video clips and recommended questions that users can discuss after having watched the videos. The sessions are intended to improve listening skills, make conversations interesting and thought provoking, while at the same time helping users with conversation skills and provide them with material to discuss. The sessions also enable users to amass a broad vocabulary, as the sessions span a wide range of topics.
