Questions, answered
Do you practise Spain or Latin American Spanish?
Mira speaks clear, neutral Spanish and adapts to what you want. You can practise the everyday phrases used across both Spain and Latin America.
Do I need to know any Spanish already?
No, you can start as a complete beginner. Mira speaks slowly, keeps things simple, and can help in English when you are stuck, then raises the difficulty as you improve.
How is this different from a language app?
Apps build vocabulary but rarely make you speak in real time. Mira is a live phone conversation, so you practise understanding and speaking Spanish together, which is what real conversations demand.
