USER GUIDE

Welcome to LingoRooms

Everything you need to get started, practise real conversations, and make the most of your learning. Use the menu on the left to jump to any section.

Getting Started

LingoRooms is an AI-powered language learning platform that lets you practise real-life conversations in immersive virtual "rooms." Instead of flashcards or grammar drills, you step into everyday scenarios and have natural conversations with an AI avatar that plays the role of a local.

Practice Modes

Full Conversation - A complete immersive scenario with the AI avatar. Quick Practice - A shorter, focused session for when you have limited time. The AI avatar adapts to your level and gently guides you toward correct expressions.

CEFR Levels

LingoRooms uses the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR) to classify room difficulty:

LevelDescription
A1 - BeginnerSimple greetings, basic needs, short phrases
A2 - ElementaryEveryday situations, simple sentences, familiar topics
B1 - IntermediateCan handle most travel situations, express opinions
B2 - Upper IntermediateComplex topics, detailed discussions, formal settings
C1 - AdvancedNuanced expression, professional contexts, idiomatic language
C2 - Expert SimulationNear-native fluency, subtle humour, cultural depth

Not sure which level? Start with A1. If it feels too easy, jump up to A2 or B1. The AI will adapt to your level within the conversation.

Having a Conversation

  1. The AI avatar introduces the scenario.
  2. Type your response or click the microphone to speak.
  3. The avatar responds naturally, continuing the scenario.
  4. New vocabulary is highlighted and saved automatically.
  5. When using voice, you receive pronunciation feedback.
  6. Click the hint button if you get stuck.
  7. The conversation progresses to a natural conclusion.

After completing a conversation, you'll see a Session Summary with XP earned, new vocabulary learned, conversation highlights, and areas to improve.

Voice or text - your choice. You can type your responses or speak them aloud. Voice mode gives you pronunciation feedback. Text mode is great for practising writing.

English Pathways

English works differently from other languages. Since learners come from many different native languages, LingoRooms offers English Pathways - a many-to-one approach where content is adapted based on your first language.

When you select English, you first choose your native language. LingoRooms then tailors corrections, explanations, and cultural tips specifically for speakers of your language.

7 source languages supported: German, French, Spanish, Italian, Russian, Dutch, and Mandarin speakers can all learn English through tailored pathways across 5 cities.

Tandem Rooms

Tandem Rooms are a social feature where you invite another LingoRooms user to practise together. An AI moderator joins the session to facilitate conversation, correct mistakes, and suggest topics.

Tandem Room limits by plan: Free - 1 invite/month, Plus - 20 invites/month, Premium - Unlimited

Dashboard & Progress

Your Dashboard shows your XP total, current streak, sessions completed, languages practised, and monthly usage overview. The Vocabulary Builder collects all words encountered during conversations with translations and context.
