Wika: an AI-powered language learning system that unlocks our natural ability to acquire languages.
Learning a new language as an adult can be challenging, often leading to frustration, disengagement, and lost motivation. Wika transforms this experience by tapping into our innate ability to acquire languages naturally. By mimicking the way we learned languages as children, Wika makes the process feel intuitive, enjoyable, and highly effective. With AI-powered lesson guidance, Wika offers personalized, intelligent suggestions that accelerate language learning, keeping you engaged and progressing smoothly. Experience a more organic and fulfilling way to master new languages with Wika.
I also struggled with language learning specifically Japanese so I explored more nontraditional language learning methods and came up with Wika. I’m building something that I can also use for my own language learning. I’m looking to connect with people who want to make language learning more intuitive, especially for adults. I believe we can build deeper connections and empathy by learning each other’s cultures through language.
