01Enjoy the small exchanges
Ordering a coffee, asking a price, or finding your way can make a trip feel more personal. Start Speaking has practical café, restaurant, shopping, and transport situations to rehearse aloud.
02Meet the people, too
Begin with a greeting, introduce yourself, and practice simple questions. Useful phrases give you a starting point for meeting people and making plans; the real conversation will take its own course.
03Prepare for the day ahead
Pick a situation you expect to meet, listen to its model phrases, and try saying them. Check the recognized words and repeat what needs work. For offline speaking, prepare Apple’s model on your supported iPhone before the trip.
