Problem

Korean learners needed opportunities to practise textbook language outside lessons. The foundation sought to provide beginner conversation practice through a mobile service.

Approach

The foundation developed KSI Korean AI Tutor and made it available free on mobile devices. Learners selected topics and replied to the chatbot through speech or text. They could replay earlier conversations.

Takeaway
