Tête-à-Tête
Tête-à-Tête is a voice-first Spanish speaking-exam app. You speak Spanish out loud — the AI listens, replies in Spanish, and scores your pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, fluency, interaction, and confidence after every turn. Built for AQA Spanish (8692) and Edexcel Spanish (1SP1) at Foundation and Higher tier, and Cambridge IGCSE Spanish (0530), which is single tier.

Practise every component with a realistic AI examiner that scores you the way the real thing does.

Describe a photo and answer follow-up questions in Spanish. The AI examiner asks follow-up questions on what you say.
Discuss a set theme in Spanish — school, work, the world around you — with real-time AI feedback, as Cambridge IGCSE requires.
Read passages aloud in Spanish and answer comprehension questions to sharpen pronunciation and fluency.
Most GCSE prep tools are text-based — you tap, you reply. Tête-à-Tête is different. You actually speak Spanish, out loud, and the AI examiner listens, responds in Spanish, and scores you in real time. Just like sitting your real speaking exam.
The AI examiner scores every answer as you speak. Role plays are marked task by task and reading aloud phase by phase, the way the boards mark them; photo card and conversation answers are scored on six skills: pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary, fluency, interaction and confidence. Everything is calibrated to GCSE, not to native speakers, and your scores convert to an estimated GCSE grade so you can see how you're tracking.
Sit a full timed mock Spanish speaking exam — the board's preparation time, every part in your board's order, exam conditions. No coaching, no help. Finish with estimated marks on your board's own official mark scheme, part by part, and the GCSE grade they point to, so you know exactly where the marks are being won and lost.
Pick your board and tier when you sign up. The AI examiner follows that board's format at that tier's level.
