## What is Tutor Lily?

How long have you been telling yourself you'll learn English? Spanish? French?

Let's make this the year it actually happens. Not from 400 owl reminders. Not from tapping pictures of fruits and animals. From real conversations — from your very first day.

You'll be speaking with confidence in weeks, not years. Just 10 minutes a day with me.

You speak or type. I match your level in real time. Use your target language, your native language, or a mix of both as you get more comfortable.

MISTAKES ARE WELCOME

It's actually how we learn.

Make all your mistakes with me first. Then you won't have to make them with real people.

When you slip up, I don't shame you. No red Xs. No buzzers. I give you real-time feedback on grammar, pronunciation, and word choice.

I use a three-step method I call the Lily Method: I nudge, then I hint, and only then do I give you the answer.

Learners fix their own mistakes 46% of the time with this method (Lyster & Ranta research). Other apps just feed you the correct answer — so you learn nothing. With me, you learn it because YOU found the answer.

The biggest mistake you can make is being afraid to make one. Duolingo punishes you for mistakes — I reward you for making them.

LET'S TALK ABOUT WHAT YOU LIKE

Whatever you want to talk about — I'm like a friend who happens to speak 50+ languages.

The movie you watched last weekend. Your day at work. The trip you're planning. Your favorite K-drama. The book you can't put down. The song stuck in your head.

Personal conversations stick. Generic lessons don't.

Pack me for the trip. I'll be your travel buddy who already speaks the language.

Want to practice a specific moment — ordering at a Parisian café, checking into a Tokyo hotel, meeting your partner's parents? Just ask me to roleplay it.

I REMEMBER YOU

Other apps forget you the moment you close them. I don't.

I remember the word you stumbled on last Tuesday. I remember your sister's wedding next month. I remember you work in marketing and your dog's name is Bean. Session 100 with me is smarter than session 1 — because I've been paying attention.

You told me in onboarding you have a trip to Italy? Today let's talk about what you're packing. You mentioned you're nervous about a presentation? Walk me through it — I'll help you fix the rough spots.

EARN STREAKS FOR REAL PRACTICE

Streaks earned by real messages, not by tapping a button to keep a number alive. All the motivation. None of the guilt trips. No hearts. No leaderboards. No "you broke your streak!" notifications.

50+ LANGUAGES, NATIVE ACCENTS

English, Spanish, French, German, Japanese, Korean, Chinese, Italian, Portuguese, Arabic, Russian, Hindi, Turkish, Dutch, Swedish, Polish, Thai, Vietnamese, Indonesian, Greek — and 40+ more.

Each with native accent variants (British or American English, Latin American or European Spanish, etc.) — so you sound like you actually live there, not like a textbook.

STOP STUDYING. START SPEAKING.

Babbel scripts you. ChatGPT forgets you. A human tutor costs $30-60 an hour and needs scheduling.

I'm available 24/7. I'm 50× cheaper than a private tutor. I remember every word you've ever said to me. And I'll never make you feel stupid for not knowing something — that's the whole reason you're here.

Five minutes on your coffee break. Thirty on the train home. I fit your day, not the other way around.

Open the app. Say hi. I'll take it from there.

### 5/5 — 좋음

*2026-05-15*

다른 AI 활용 앱들 보다 더 음성 인식이 정교하고 그에 따른 대답도 자연스럽게 잘 해 주는 것 같음. 하지만 상세 설명에서 말하는 것처럼 내가 한 말을 기억해 주진 않음. 그리고 가장 기초단계도 꽤 어려워서 대화를 계속 이어 가기가 쉽지 않음. 중 고급 학습자들에게는 매우 좋을 것 같다. 아직 초급이라 대화를 이어 가기가 힘들긴 하지만 그래도 틀리더라도 말로 뱉어 보는 연습을 하게 되어서 유료 결제함. AI가 던지는 질문 수준이 더 낮은 난도 부터 있었으면 좋겠음

### 2/5 — No Support

*2026-03-25*

After subscribing for yearly plan. App settings change and can’t contact support from the app.

**Developer response:** Hi Yemro, sorry for the issues you're experiencing on our app. Please contact our support team at support@tutorlily.com

### 1/5 — Recent update removed roleplay/topics

*2026-03-22, version 2.1.0*

Originally loved it until the update removed roleplay/topics and only had the tutor option available

### 2/5 — Nicht zu ende gedacht

*2026-02-12*

Beschäftigungsprogramm.. workarounds finden … nervt!!!! Nicht fertig gedacht!!! Hätte Potential und wäre dann auch monatliche Beiträge wert… aber so nee… unglaublich muss von selbst alles auf Deutsch, meine Muttersprache,vorlesen … nervt… Dauer ewig… einfach nur dumm…Deutsch läuft genauso langsam wie französisch… gefühlt braucht msn die dreifache Zeit. Die Redewendung..Worte welche man in Wiederholung auf französisch bräuchte werden nicht geliefert… die Sicherlich hoch komplexe Progammierung läuft hier ins lehre und wird zum Witz

**Developer response:** Hallo, vielen Dank für Ihr Feedback. Es scheint, dass Sie auf Probleme mit unserer neuen Version gestoßen sind — das tut uns leid.

Bitte schreiben Sie uns an support@tutorlily.com, damit wir die Probleme besser verstehen und so schnell wie möglich beheben können. Ihr Feedback hilft uns sehr dabei, die App zu verbessern!

### 1/5 — Scammy

*2026-01-27, version 2.0.14*

You can’t use it without paying, it says you get 3 days free trial but it takes the payment instantly so you actually don’t. Then when you use it it’s super buggy and has nothing for absolute beginners. AVOID!

### 1/5 — Terrible app

*2026-01-15, version 2.0.14*

Makes me answer same questions each time I want to add this app to another device. I just want to logon. I do not recommend this app.

### 3/5 — Changes for the worse

*2025-10-13, version 1.1.4.1*

I loved this app, until a couple days ago an update came out. It looked insane, but I saw that it wasn’t free. I don’t think companies should be allowed to lock an app behind a paywall without notice, but also I had to give payment info for a FREE TRIAL. It looks awesome, but I wish it was free.

### 5/5 — SAR

*2025-07-22, version 1.1.4*

SAR

### 1/5 — Bad customer service

*2025-05-31, version 1.1.4*

Paid for the pro version.  It stopped working and there is no way to restore purchases. Emailed service and no reply. Junk, don’t buy.

### 1/5 — Bad customer service

*2025-05-12*

Paid for the pro version.  It stopped working and there is no way to restore purchases. Emailed service and no reply.
