Participation
A language only really lives when you use it. In the app you find activities in your own municipality, run by local organisations: language cafés, walks, sports, shared dinners and volunteering.
Everything is shown for your own municipality. Taaly saves only your municipality, never your exact location.
You go straight to the organisation’s own page. They confirm your place, and you go.
Does your municipality use Taaly? Then you scan a QR code at the activity and your participation hours are registered automatically.
“When I fled Afghanistan I felt very alone. It is really hard to make contact when you don’t speak the language. I am so grateful that there are people who want to help, because every new session gives me more confidence.”
Reza (26)
Dutch learner
“I practise Dutch through Taaly and it has helped me so much. I now just dare to talk to people in the shop, on the street, everywhere. That feels really good. And I have made new friends too.”
Omar (32)

“As my language improved, I managed to find a job.”
Roberto

“Taaly improved my Dutch. I find it much easier to connect with people at work now. A safe place to make mistakes, while the conversation stays in Dutch.”

Read full articleNo. Taaly is free for newcomers: practising with the AI coach, video calls with volunteer taalcoaches, the live lessons and the activities cost nothing. Many newcomers get access through their municipality or COA, and you can also simply download the app and start.
We support over 50 languages, and our community is expanding daily. In some languages, we're still growing our network of human coaches. Meanwhile, you can practice with our AI coaches, they're always ready for a chat! If you're passionate about a language we're still building, invite your friends to join. Together, we're creating something special.
Activities are real things happening near you: language cafés, walks, sports, volunteering and community events, run by local organisations. You already practise with real people on Taaly, by call and in live rooms. Activities is the step after that, where you use your new language face to face in your own neighbourhood. You will find them in your Feed, on the "Activities nearby" shelf and in the Activities tab.
It opens the organisation's own page, where you can read more and sign up with them directly. Taaly does not handle sign-ups, so tapping "I'm interested" does not put your name on any list and does not book you a place. Nothing is arranged until you do it with the organisation.
No. Taaly asks for your location one time, only to work out which municipality you are in. We save only the municipality, like "Almere". We never save your exact location. You can also skip that step and pick your municipality from a list, and you can change it any time from your profile.
Download Taaly, pick your municipality and start speaking: with an AI coach right away, and with a volunteer taalcoach whenever you’re ready. Free for newcomers.
