Confidence in Conversation
Like Duolingo, but for Confidence in Conversation. Tomo turns the whole topic into a game you play five minutes a day, until it actually sticks.
For the part of you with thirty open tabs that never became anything.
A short one: 12 levels across 2 sections, about 24 minutes end to end, roughly 5 days at five minutes a day. It moves through Breaking the Ice and Reading the Room. It starts from scratch.
