Skyeng's free AI-powered English tutor inside Telegram — chat about everyday topics, rehearse a job interview, or role-play a conversation with a celebrity persona, all without leaving the app.
Skyeng AI Tutor is the official self-study companion from Skyeng, one of the best-known English schools in the Russian-speaking market. Instead of drilling flashcards, the bot puts you straight into conversation with an AI partner and adapts to whatever you want to practice that day.
Three modes cover most everyday needs. "Life chat" lets you talk about ordinary topics — plans for the weekend, a recent trip, your job — the way you would with a language partner, with the bot nudging you toward more natural phrasing. "Interview trainer" simulates an English-language job interview, complete with follow-up questions, which is genuinely useful if you're prepping for a role at an international company. "Celebrity conversations" turns practice into a game by letting you chat with AI personas modeled on well-known figures, which keeps sessions from feeling like homework.
Because it's built by Skyeng, the bot doubles as a soft funnel into paid lessons and courses — expect the occasional nudge toward the main Skyeng platform. That's a reasonable trade-off for a genuinely free, always-available speaking-practice tool, especially if your main gap is confidence talking rather than vocabulary size. It won't replace structured grammar study or a human tutor for pronunciation feedback, but as a low-stakes way to get comfortable producing English sentences in real time, it's one of the more polished options built by an actual EdTech company rather than a solo developer.

Yes — the bot itself is free to use; it may occasionally point you toward Skyeng's paid lessons, but the practice modes don't require payment.
No, the bot is open to anyone with a Telegram account — you don't need an active Skyeng subscription.
