Apparently, you can do live voice chatting with Vivox. There are also many regional areas (Japanese, Italian, Spanish, French) where students can interact with native speakers. I'm looking into it, but would love some feedback if anyone else has tried this. I'm still not convinced that the pedagogical benefits are worth the cost and the training that would go into this kind of venture. I'd appreciate any comments on this.
