A path shaped around real mistakes
The roadmap spans five CEFR levels with 10 lessons each. The first 10 reviewed A1 lessons draw on a 25-category Turkmen-L1 error framework covering patterns generic courses often miss.
In development
Feedback that understands where a mistake comes from.
The planned Mistake Coach will use Claude and Zehin's Turkmen-L1 error framework to explain open-ended answers bilingually and create targeted follow-up practice. It is the next product milestone—not a deployed feature today.

Why I'm building this
“I know what English access can change—because it changed my life.”
Sohbet Dovranov was born in a muddy village in Turkmenistan. Determined to study in the United States, he taught himself English and prepared for the SAT—sometimes waking at 3 a.m. to study and traveling more than 100 miles by bus with a scanner to access new SAT books.
That persistence eventually took him to Columbia University on full financial aid, where he graduated in computer science. Zehin is his way of paying that opportunity forward: first to Turkmen learners, then—community by community—across Central Asia.
