GBPlática 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.

GBI 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.

GBGreat Spanish Tool Platica is a great tool that significantly helped me improve my Spanish speaking skills. I was able to have conversations with a native Spanish speaker, wherein the discussions we would talk about pre-selected topics, and after that, we would take about whatever came to our minds. Overall, I would recommend this to other people for the idea that one can go out of their comfort zone to hone their Spanish skills in a friendly environment.

GBI had a great experience with Platica I had a great experience with Platica! It was very helpful practicing my spanish with a native speaker, especially in a pandemic where it is not as easy to practice because of online classes. My partner was very patient with me, helped me learn alot, and overall was really great!
