Why Switch to Poppa?

Tired of Gamification

Points and streaks don't equal learning. Poppa focuses on real language acquisition through meaningful conversation.

Done with Drilling

Memorizing vocabulary lists doesn't help you speak. Our Thinking Method teaches you to construct sentences naturally.

Discover Patterns

Instead of memorizing rules, you'll discover how the language works through guided Socratic questioning.

Actually Speak

Most apps focus on reading and writing. Poppa is voice-first—you'll be speaking from your very first lesson.
