Four students walking together through a green campus
Study Buddy

Study together. Practise naturally. Connect as friends.

Practise a language, focus on your work or study together with a friendly Buddy.

No formal teaching. No pressure. Just natural practice and shared motivation.

Study Buddies are friendly companions who are happy to exchange languages, study or work together. They are not presented as teachers or tutors.
A Study Buddy is a study and language-exchange companion, not a teacher, tutor or examination instructor.

Where sessions happen: cafes, libraries, coworking spaces and managed study rooms only. Private-home, hotel-room and other private-room sessions are blocked by our booking system. Online sessions happen on a video call instead.
