Order food in a restaurant and feel like you are really there. Sit on an airplane and talk to your fellow passengers. Walk through a park and play basketball. Try on clothes in a shopping centre.
And you can do all these things from your own home while learning English at the same time in virtual reality (VR). While studying in VR you can choose your own avatar and interact in real time with your teacher and other students.
The focus of the Virtual Reality English course is on social speaking and building your confidence in English. During the course you will visit different virtual locations such as hotels, cafes, restaurants, parks, wizard schools desert islands and castles and practise your English in different situations.
