The teacher behind TikiTalka
An educator by day, a multilingual by night
As a language learner and English teacher, I know how quickly practice at home can turn dull, and how much easier it is when a game gives students a reason to speak.
Speak in Spades started from my frustrations as a self-studying learner. However, TikiTalka started from my frustrations as an international English teacher.
Every language learning resource here has been shaped to answer common issues, and most from real lessons, so you can confidently use them to build the best learning experiences for yourself or your students. Happy Learning!
