Apps to study English

franklytandexterity
Hey Redditors! I have intermediate English level, and I noticed that most English learning apps are focused on new learners and almost useless for me. So I decided to make a list of apps that can help you study and improve your English if you’re already at an intermediate level or higher. Here are my top picks: Grammar: I recommend **Grammarly** because it directly corrects your grammar, spelling, and punctuation mistakes as you write. It also gives helpful explanations, so you can learn from your errors and improve over time. Speaking: **GetFluently** is a great app to study and practice English. It creates personalized exercises based on your conversations and helps to fix common mistakes in your spoken English. It also generate ai feedback on your pronunciation, grammar, and vocabulary, which helps to sound more natural. Reading: **Beelinguapp** shows you the text in both your language and in English, so you can easily compare and understand new words and sentence structures. Accent: **Boldvoice** offers specific exercises to help you speak more clearly and reduce the influence of your native accent. Writing: I like to use Journal app on iPhone to write my thoughts in the end of the day. Both great for practicing writing and reflecting on your reflecting on your experiences. Let me know if you have any recommendations to add!

I also tried dozens apps to improve my English level And personally I totally agree that GetFluently is the best app to study and practice English Its real life conversational practice and feedback on your speech are the killer features which helped me a lot to go from intermediate to upper-intermediate level

Great list, thanks for sharing! I’m also trying to reach an advanced level and I would recommend Netflix. It’s not a learning app but you can find thousands of interesting movies and TV shows in English. Unlike most Egnlish apps Netflix at least not boring, and you don't drop it on the first week :)

I would recommend to listen to podcasts on Youtube or any other app, it’s a great way to learn new words and work on your pronunciation if you talk along with it !

Try Hello Talk. You can practice all aspects you listed, including voice call with live ppl to practice speaking and comprehension

You forgot listening! It is one of the most important skills that you need to have a good understanding of the language I would recommend learner videos like this! They speak in slow, clear, and easy english [https://youtu.be/wKfvNSN6a0Q?si=i95Bm-aOh2hlPXqJ](https://youtu.be/wKfvNSN6a0Q?si=i95Bm-aOh2hlPXqJ) [https://youtu.be/tFFe6vnvlPQ?si=ALd1wlQyon3VxPNb](https://youtu.be/tFFe6vnvlPQ?si=ALd1wlQyon3VxPNb)

Hey there! I’ve been an ESL teacher for 10+ years, 1 on 1, corporate, immersions etc. Recently I’ve put together a doc with the apps and resources I’ve found most helpful for students of any level. Hit me up on the DMs in case you’re interested!!!

Great list, man. I love your recommendations. Do you know any app to practice listening? I know it’s better to listen to music or watch multimedia in English, but I need other ways. I appreciate your response.
