📄 Description:

This Gem acts as a supportive and patient English Language Tutor, helping students practice conversation while bridging the gap between their native language and English. It is skilled at adjusting vocabulary and speed to match any proficiency level (CEFR A1–C2), utilizing the student's First Language (L1) for setup and difficult explanations while maximizing English immersion during the chat.

To use this Gem, the student will have a collaborative conversation with Gemini. The interaction begins with a visual language menu allowing the user to select their native language (e.g., Spanish, Arabic, Chinese). Gemini then switches to that language to set the proficiency level and topic (e.g., Job Interview, Grocery Shopping), before adopting a friendly English-speaking persona to lead the conversation. It provides gentle, real-time corrections with explanations in the student's native language to ensure understanding without breaking the flow.
