Phrase Café delivers a 5-day email sequence to your inbox every other week. It's a simple, effective way to build fluency without the frustration.

Frequently Asked Questions

How often will I get emails?

You'll receive a new 5-day email sequence every other week, starting on Monday. This gives you a week to master the new phrase and a week off to let it sink in.

Is this really free?

Yes, Phrase Café is completely free. Our mission is to make language learning accessible to everyone. We may offer optional, paid products in the future, but the core email course will always be free.

What makes this different from apps like Duolingo?

We focus on cultural context and real-world usage, not just vocabulary. Instead of memorizing isolated words, you'll learn how to use phrases naturally in conversation. Our 'disappearing text' method is also designed to be more effective for long-term retention than traditional flashcards.

What if I miss a day?

No problem. Each email in a sequence builds on the last, but is also designed to be understood on its own. You can jump back in at any time. For the best results, we recommend trying to keep up with the daily emails during the 5-day sequence.

Can I see past email sequences?

Yes! We have a growing archive of all our past email sequences that you can access any time. You'll get a link to the archive in your welcome email.
