Great Spanish learning tool Platica is a great tool that helped me improve my Spanish skills. I got to converse with a native Spanish speaker, which really helps when trying to learn a new language. We would discuss pre-selected topics and, if time allowed, talk about other subjects that came to mind. This program really put me outside of my comfort zone in a good way because I got to hone my Spanish skills in an environment that encouraged improvement.

I love Ale! I loved talking with Ale! She was so nice and we always talked about important things that pertained to the class. She helped me feel comfortable speaking in Spanish.

Plática Review I have been doing Plática for the past three years through my school. I have found this experience to be both extremely fun and cohesive despite being in a learning environment. I love the way in which each conversation is set up: before your conversation you will receive a list of topics you may be speaking about and after your conversation you also receive an electronic copy of your corrections. This past year, I have been an AP Spanish student, and with the help of my "speaking partner" through Plática I have been able to practice my simulated conversations for the upcoming exam. I would recommend this program to any Spanish speaking student, no matter their level. I have had such a great time throughout this program and have even developed a friendship with my speaking partner.

Great! I really enjoyed the conversations mostly because of the meaningful topics/discussions and feedback on where I could improve. My partner was also very friendly and down to earth.

I LOVE Ale I LOVE Ale! Such a sweet and encouraging person to talk with and I definitely improved upon my conversational skills and confidence. She was very open and has a great memory, which made me feel more valued throughout the semester.
