Crista talks with you by voice, corrects you on the spot, explains in English and asks you to repeat the right sentence. On your phone, whenever you have time.
You rehearse "Vorrei un cappuccino" all the way to the counter, and then the barista asks you something back. You open your mouth at the trattoria and the waiter switches to English. Your streak on the exercise app is hundreds of days long, and two minutes of real conversation still feel impossible. And the perfect answer shows up in the shower, an hour later.
It is not a lack of studying. It is a lack of practice out loud. Private lessons are expensive and run on a schedule, and exercise apps don't make you speak. With Crista you practice out loud, whenever you want, with a patient tutor who never judges you.
I talk with you in Italian, correct you calmly and explain in English whenever you need it. Take your time to build the sentence: I'll wait, with no judgment, at whatever time suits you.
Crista is an artificial intelligence tutor.
Every conversation is a lesson: Crista brings up a topic, corrects what matters and explains it in English.
Answer in Italian using your phone's microphone. Take your time and make mistakes: there is no audience here.
She says the right form out loud and explains why, in English.
The mistake goes to your notebook and comes back as a mission in later lessons.
Everything a good teacher does, available at any time.
Crista corrects out loud what matters and asks you to repeat. You learn by speaking, not by reading rules.
Your job, your family, the trip you are planning: next lesson, she brings it up.
Talk without touching the screen. Your answer is sent when you pause.
Your mistakes become practice points, grouped by topic. In every lesson, a hidden mission so you get right what you most often get wrong.
Crista plays the parts: the waiter, the hotel receptionist, a new colleague. Flying to Rome on Friday? Rehearse with her on Thursday.
Lost a word? Type it in English in "How do I say?" and she shows you how to say it. You also get answer suggestions and beginner mode, with short sentences and the translation always visible.
Crista keeps what you tell her and uses it to bring up topics, like a teacher who already knows you.
