If you know the words but freeze, take [Interactive Speaking](https://www.learnwithsmile.app/course-interactive-speaking) (3 months, ₹1,199/mo).

Sit an exam course only if a form asks for the exam. Most people buy the wrong class because the internet sells “English” as one product. It is three rooms. This page is the picker.

Approx. 6 learners in every English batch. ## Spoken English — when daily life is the gap Spoken English is the 6-month map: sounds, sentences, vocabulary, then real conversations. It is for Hindi- and Bengali-medium beginners, people who read more than they speak, and anyone who still translates in their head. You speak every hour in a batch of around 6. See [how long it takes](https://www.learnwithsmile.app/how-long-to-learn-spoken-english) and Kavya’s story on [real results](https://www.learnwithsmile.app/success-stories). ## Interactive English — when freeze is the gap Interactive is not a grammar lecture. It is games, debates, storytelling and 1-minute prompts so the checking step between thinking and speaking gets shorter. If you can write a decent message but go silent on a call, this is the room. Ananya’s standup story is this problem. Read the full freeze guide: [Interactive English when you freeze](https://www.learnwithsmile.app/interactive-english-class-hesitation). ## Business English — when work is the gap Workplace English is meetings, client calls, updates, emails and explaining your work. It assumes you can already chat. Neha’s tax-desk calls and Aditya’s BI Analyst switch are this room.

Buy it when a form asks. - Do not buy 1:1 chat apps if you cannot form a sentence yet — there is nothing to practise. - Do not buy a 30-day fluency pack. Everyday talk is about 6 months live. - Interview prep is for people who already speak and now need the job conversation. Sneha’s story is that lane. Working nights or weekends?
