Turn Tinder Plus Into A Language Learning Tool

Tinder may have a reputation as a tool for finding hookups, but the service can be used for other interesting things as well. With Tinder Plus, you can turn the app into a way to meet language learning partners.

Learning a new language isn’t easy, especially when you don’t have someone to practice conversational skills with. That’s why LC Haughey at Fluent In 3 Months suggests using Tinder Plus to meet people in other countries you can actually strike up a conversation with. Just set your location for the country of your choice and start swiping. You can even mention in your bio that you’re trying to learn a their language. That way when people come across your profile, they might be encouraged to help you out and start chatting. Who knows? Maybe they want someone to practice their English with you too. Unfortunately, you do need to pay for Tinder Plus to change your location, but it might be worth it if you’re in need of making some language-learning friends. Just remember, no matter how you use Tinder, there’s no real privacy with it, so know what you’re getting into.
