FluentU is an app that takes real-world videos like news, commercials, music videos, interviews, and inspiring talks and turns them into meaningful English learning experiences. Unlike traditional apps, FluentU uses a natural approach that helps the learner ease into the language and culture over time. Students will learn English or the language they want as it's spoken in real life.
