What is language exchange?
Tandem language learning is the process of joining forces with someone who is a native speaker of the language you want to learn. Through conversation with your Tandem partner, known as language exchange, you improve your language skills and develop intercultural competence.
Tandem’s core value is to unite people across borders through language learning. Languages hold great power for unity, inclusivity, and equality. Language and cultural exchange are keys to unlock global understanding in our increasingly interconnected world.
How to learn languages on Tandem:
1. Select the language(s) you want to learn in the app
2. Tell us about your language learning goals and your ideal Tandem partner
3. Search for native speakers of your target language in the community
4. Kick-off your language exchange experience by sending your first message
5. Share topics with the Tandem community so you can have meaningful conversations about what interests you
6. Keep up the conversation with your new Tandem “pen pal” and speak like a native in no time!

Thank you for downloading Tandem, a place to connect to native speakers worldwide and practice the language you are learning. Some cheeky bugs were trying to distract you, but we found them and, well, let’s say, you don’t need to worry about them anymore... :)
Ratings and Reviews
Changed my Life :)
This app was incredible when I moved back to England from France and wanted to keep my French up - I got on with some really special people and we ended up meeting up! I’d highly recommend the app for keeping up your language skills (rather than learning from scratch). It’s a good way of practicing writing skills, aural skills, and there are even options of video calls to help with confidence when speaking :)
I also met my significant other on this app and we’ve been together for about 3.5 years now - in the same country! :) we spoke on this app a lot and thought we’d meet up as friends because we got on so well! (It isn’t a dating app, and that’s not what I’m trying to sell it as - I wanted to show how easy it is to form friendships and connections with people through here) - Thank you Tandem!
Makes it possible to have a tandem partner remotely
I love learning languages and a Tandem is the best way to do it. I remember the days when people found their Tandems on good old uni message boards. I recently wanted to improve my French but I am no longer at Uni and I live in Northern Ireland. I didn’t have time to travel far to meet with a possible tandem and I thought there had to be a way to do it remotely. That’s how I found tandem. It’s a wonderful app. It helps you find your tandem, talk, video call, play games and casually instant message with the added ability to correct their messages. I love it and I have already recommended it to my friends.
Fantastic
Really wish I’d found this app earlier, can’t think of a better way to improve your desired language or a better designed app. Don’t waste time with other methods, get stuck into actually communicating with native speakers, it’s got to be the fastest and most motivating way to improve language skills. Updated: have to say as much as the idea of the app is great, actual usage is not. Has connectivity problems, always dropping off even with WiFi and especially on data, when WeChat works. Should also be the option to save in file messages you want to review, at the moment I copy and paste to iOS notes, should be in app option for this. Also needs to have recall option for messages, at least the option to be able to delete individual messages. In summary, good app but could easily be so much better
