About SpeakShark

Making confident English speaking accessible to everyone

Billions of people want to speak English fluently. Most can't afford a tutor, and fear of judgment stops them from practicing. We're changing that.

Our mission

Speaking English shouldn't require courage

A private English tutor costs $30–80 per hour. For most learners, that's out of reach. And even when they can practice, the fear of being judged keeps them silent.

SpeakShark exists to remove both barriers. Our AI teachers are available 24/7, never judge, and adapt to every learner's level. Whether you're preparing for a meeting or just want to sound more natural — we're here.
