Six kids. One guide. Thirty minutes of talking.
Every club happens in the AG Meeting Space, a video room built for kids. No app to install. It opens in the browser on a computer or tablet.
Groups of six
Small enough that every child talks, every club. Half the group is learning English, half is learning Portuguese, so they help each other.
A native-speaking guide
An adult guide runs every club, keeps shy kids talking and corrects gently. Guides are vetted before they meet a child.
Topic cards
Every club has a simple, everyday topic: pets, food, school, games. Kids see the questions and new words on screen.
Raise a hand, send a reaction
Kids can raise a hand or react without interrupting. The guide sees who wants to speak next.
Watch any club. Without being seen.
Parents can join the meeting space at any time from their own account and watch their child's club, live.
- Invisible to the kids. Your camera and microphone stay off. No one in the club sees you're there.
- Your child stands out. Their tile is highlighted so you can follow along.
- No appointment needed. Drop in for a minute or stay for the whole club.
Three steps. No tests.
Mastery means your child can hold a simple conversation in the new language. The guide moves them to the next step when they're ready, and you get a short email when they do.
Talk
Join the clubs and learn to chat about everyday things with other kids.
Pal
Meet a pen pal in the other country, one-on-one, only when both sets of parents say yes.
Genius Talk
Give a short talk in the new language. That's graduation, and your family keeps the video.
Built for kids from the first click.
An adult in every club
A trained guide leads every session. Kids are never in a room alone.
One-on-one needs two yeses
Pen pals only open when both families approve.
Parents can always watch
The parent window is open in every club, for every parent.
Vetted guides
Every guide is checked before they work with children.
Everything your child needs to go from first hello to a real conversation.

What parents ask first.
What ages is it for?
Kids 6 to 14. Clubs are grouped by age so everyone talks about things they care about.
Which languages can my child learn?
English or Portuguese. Brazilian kids practise English with American kids, and American kids practise Portuguese with Brazilian kids.
What if my child is shy?
That's why groups are small and every club has a guide. Guides are trained to bring quiet kids in, one easy question at a time.
What do we need?
A computer or tablet with a camera and a microphone, and a quiet corner. The meeting space opens in the browser. There's nothing to install.
Can I really watch without being seen?
Yes. Parents join through the parent window with the camera and microphone off. The kids don't see a tile for you.
How do payment and cancelling work?
