● ToneTutor
The hardest part of learning Mandarin isn't the vocabulary — it's finding someone to actually talk to. ToneTutor gives you an AI native speaker available 24/7, so you can practise speaking the moment you want to.
🎯 Start the free test →Most learners can read and recognise far more Chinese than they can confidently say out loud. The fix is reps: real, low-stakes conversation where mistakes are cheap and feedback is instant. That's exactly what this is — talk through everyday scenarios, get your tones and grammar checked on every line, and build the muscle memory that turns study into speech.
Pick a scenario and your level, then just talk — speak or type in Mandarin and have a real back-and-forth with "Lin Wei", your AI native speaker, with pinyin, translation and audio on every line. Each reply is graded for tones and grammar, and you finish with a summary (or a score card) of exactly what to drill next. Free for your first 3 sessions, no signup.
