Awesome!
I'm just starting with a clear niche and solving my own problems. Where many of my friends and myself are in bilingual relationships that have been trying to learn our partner's languages.
In the US, 15% of new marriages are multi-ethnic, so that's pretty large already. I think people are surprised how common it is. And it easily pique's people's interests who are in the situation versus another generic language learning platform.
If the project goes well, it can expand and branch out (e.g., adding friends/family, connecting to other peers, finding strangers to learn with). Right now, it works very well as a language learning tool, even without a partner.
- webmaven 6y agoI like the idea of learning a language with a spouse or partner, how about the usecase where neither person is a native speaker of the language being learned?
- ngokevin 6y agoYeah! I actually do have some users learning Japanese together with a platonic friend with the app. It seems to work well. The use case for learning languages with friends and other family is wide open, just taking the baby steps!
