Learning that STICKS
i have tried different tools, courses, and apps to learn tagalog. nothing has worked quite as well as Tahanan.
i’m only a few days into using Tahanan, but what i appreciate most is how the structure of the language is delivered in bite sized pieces; for instance, understanding how certain words are harnessed that don’t necessarily have an English equivalent. i also appreciate the challenge of recording myself speaking the language to a coach and getting real feedback! from a real person!
highly recommend. the knowledge compounds over time, you learn phrases that are actually useful, and it breaks down the nuances of the language that aren’t easily defined elsewhere.

Gentle and keeps me on track!
This app has been great so far. It’s easy to use, and very encouraging which helps me feel motivated. It can be tricky to stay motivated to learn the language especially in diaspora!
Coach Darlyn has been a huge help as well. Having someone gently and excitedly keep me on track helps so much!

Must download!
I really enjoy the activities and prompts to engage you, especially the challenges from Coach Darlyn and the phone calls. I’m able to practice my Tagalog and get better each day!
Been waiting for this!
I been waiting for someone to make a Tagalog language app. Other ones do it but not this thorough. He has the usual lingo style vocab recall etc. but this also has audio lessons, the regular lesson plan, an AI phone call lessons where you talk back and forth with an AI track, daily challenges, and then an actual teacher from the Philippines who will send you sentences to read everyday and then send you audio correcting you. I’ve been doing it for about 3-4 months now daily and my most shocked was watching a video online and being able to follow the convo for a bit. I wasn’t perfect but I found myself not having to read caption in English as much. Absolutely love it!

Best Tagalog language tool out there!
I've been using Tahanan for four weeks, and I feel like I've learned more now than I have with the years of self-study I've done in the past. I love the simple bite-sized lessons and the clear explanations. My speaking coach Darlyn has been especially helpful in correcting my pronunciations and giving tips on making my speech more natural. Finally, the AI conversation feature is so helpful as it gives me confidence to speak without a Tita judging me. I'm so glad I made this investment, and I hope to see more Philippine
languages become available (especially Ilokano, my parents' language.)
