This is where you can help your friends learning a language that you speak and get help from native speakers. You can help your friends by reviewing their work and answering their questions. You can get help by reading or listening to their feedback about your exercises and questions. The reviewing process works like a forum where you can have multiple comments about a single exercise. Comments can be in writing or by sending a recorded message.
- The submissions are divided in 2 lists:
- Submissions to review: These are your friends’ submissions. You can access their submissions by clicking on the exercise name on the list.

- My submissions: These are the exercises you submitted from Let’s Practice 2. You can access your submissions by clicking on the exercise name on the list.
