Practice example · Talking about work with a colleague
What are you learning a language for?
For the things you want to do Not just wish you could
You have skills to share, people to meet and places to explore. Start with a conversation that means something to you.
New connections
A hello could become a friendship
Start a conversation, ask about a hobby, tell a story of your own. Small exchanges create opportunities to connect beyond your first language.
A wider world
Understand more, go further
Follow a talk in your field, ask a question in an international class or find your way on a trip. Use language to explore what interests you.
Learning with a destination
Give what you learn a place in your life
Know the words but get stuck when it is your turn to speak? Each Hopena Speak path follows one connected theme. Vocabulary and practice build on each other, preparing you for the conversation at the end.
- 1
Start with your goal
Who do you want to speak with, and where? Your goals, work and current level help shape what you practise.
- 2
Build up to what you want to say
Learn useful vocabulary at the start of each lesson, then practise replies and exchanges in the same setting. Each step builds on the one before.
- 3
Try it in a conversation
Role-play with AI using what you just learned. Listen, respond in your own words, review feedback and revisit the tricky parts before you meet the situation outside the app.
Rehearse a conversation that matters
When a colleague asks, have something to say
Suppose you want to talk about your work with a colleague. Start with useful words and short replies, then practise an exchange in that setting. Here is a small example.
Practice language
Which conversation would you like to prepare for?
Switch the language or situation to explore an example. In the app, your practice language is separate from the display language.

At work
What are you working on this week?
I'm preparing a presentation for our team.
An illustrated scene, not a live call
Room to make mistakes. A way to try again.
One less sticking point One more reason to speak
It is okay if the first attempt does not quite say what you mean. See what to change, understand why and try again in the setting you just practised. Take a sentence you can use into your next conversation.
Feedback is generated by AI and may contain mistakes. Use it as a guide for practice.
SAMPLE FEEDBACK · ENGLISH
You said
Yesterday, I go to a meeting.
Try saying
Yesterday, I went to a meeting.
When talking about yesterday, use “went” instead of “go”. Try saying the sentence again about your own meeting.
Understand the change → say it yourself

Before you begin
How does learning stay focused?
Each learning path follows one theme and a communication goal. Lessons build from useful vocabulary to replies, then a conversation that puts them into practice. You work through connected steps in the same setting, rather than jumping between unrelated situations.
I use the app in English. Can I practise Japanese, Korean and Chinese?
Yes. Whether the app is in Vietnamese, English, Japanese or Korean, you can choose to practise English, Japanese, Korean or Chinese. The display language is chosen separately from the practice language: using the app in English does not limit what you learn, and changing the display language does not change the language you practise.
I'm not confident speaking yet. Can I still start?
Yes. Start with useful vocabulary and simple replies, then build up gradually. Turn on hints when you need them and try short answers first. You do not have to speak perfectly from the start.
Does AI feedback replace a teacher?
AI feedback is a practice aid. It can contain mistakes and is not a certification of your level. For exams or professional needs, combine it with guidance from a teacher.
