About Us
Convo focuses on speaking fluency from pre-intermediate (A2) to advanced (C1). It works because it gives students one-to-one coaching with trained fluency coaches who use a structured and fluency-focused unified speaking course to get you talking.
Our coaches provide live corrections and feedback and a written hand over, class-to-class (relay teaching). We have coaches from around the world who have ‘been there and done that.’ Now it is your turn. No more textbooks and no more fill in the ____ exercises. We know your ambition and we know how you are going to achieve it. Structured conversation practice works. Convo.works.
Get fluent. Get confident. Get ahead.

Speak English fluently
Efficient
Online, 25-minute structured fluency classes save you time, money, and stress. Whenever and wherever you want.
Flexible
Choose your coach, choose your time, choose your packet. Book a single/double/triple class, as you wish. No limits and no subscriptions.
Private
Just you and your coach, always 1-1 private classes. This means that your coach’s attention is always focused 100% on you.
Intense
High-intensity structured speaking practice to fire up your fluency. No more slow, boring, passive classes.
Structured
This isn’t free conversation practice you can find in a bar or on an application. We provide structured and focused practice with coaches who are trained in active listening, interjecting, and corrections.
Economical
You don’t need native teachers to improve your fluency. You need structured high-intensity 1-1 fluency coaching with advanced C1-C2 speakers. Our prices are 7-10 USD per class. That’s it.
We are experts in two fields:
-
Language acquisition
-
Technology backed human learning
We also understand how to balance technology with one-to-one human teaching and coaching. We know that where machine learning has its advantages, it also has severe disadvantages, especially within language learning. We get the best out of both worlds.
The team at Inkstone are excited to be launching Convo in 2025. We have spent the past 10 years working with our students to achieve their English language goals from these companies:
Mei | Student
Japan
“The coach has a great approach - she makes the class engaging and never boring (so you don’t get sleepy!). She’s kind, friendly, and creates a comfortable learning environment.”
Eduardo | Offshoring, BPO
Argentina
The coach structured the class based on my needs, which I thought was fantastic. For example, I’ve worked in English for 10 years, and I told her I wanted to focus on my pronunciation. She corrected very specific things, and I found that incredibly valuable.”
Rodrigo | Aviation
Brazil
“The platform gets a 10/10 from me – it’s fast and easy to use. I love that each student can manage their own classes, schedules, and coaches. I think that’s an absolutely brilliant idea.”
Julian | Student
Mexico
“The platform is fantastic, and I learned a lot in just five classes. Rima is an amazing coach, exactly what I was looking for. She constantly helped me with my pronunciation and made the most of every 25-minute session with great energy and professionalism.”
Lili | Consulting
Colombia
“Perfect duration, and the platform worked flawlessly.”
Sebas | Professional Services
Argentina
“My experience has been extremely positive, both with the classes and the platform. I was initially unsure about the 25-minute format, but it has exceeded my expectations.”

The five fundamentals
Convo coaches spoken English fluency.
Our philosophy and method is based on these five principles:
5
App-based study doesn’t work for fluency
The more words you speak to a real human, the quicker you reach conversational fluency. Get a trained coach who can get you there faster.
4
Student talk time is the key to fluency
You already have some passive knowledge. Now you need focused speaking practice. We aim for 90%+ student talk time. In every class. Always.
3
High-intensity 25-minute classes are the most effective way to train
The evidence is clear. After 25-minutes of intense activity your brain becomes a tomato. Your time is your money and your life. HIIT is an established physical training method. Now apply it to your English.
2
Relay teaching is King
Build your speaking and listening fluency with multiple coaches from multiple global regions. Every class has written corrections, feedback, and a formal handover for your next class. This is relay teaching.
1
Spoken fluency is your primary objective
No textbooks, no gap fill exercises, no worksheets. Just structured and focused speaking training.
