Calling Kotha... "Assalamu Alaikum! Aijjo amra ki shikhlam heiddo mone aso?"

It remembers you.

Every time someone calls back, Kotha recognizes their number and picks up exactly where they left off. What words they learned. What they struggled with. What made them laugh. It's not a random lesson each time. It's a continuous relationship, like calling a teacher who actually knows you.

As simple as making a phone call

1

Dial the free number

A local Bangladesh toll-free number. Free from any phone, including the simplest feature phones. No data plan, no app, no account creation.

2

Speak in Rohingya

Kotha greets you in your language. It explains new English words and phrases in Rohingya, so you truly understand what you're learning.

3

Practice and progress

Conversational practice that adapts to your level. Each call builds on the last. The more you call, the more fluent you become.

4

Call back anytime

Your progress is saved. Call tomorrow, next week, or next month. Kotha remembers everything and continues from where you stopped.

Education shouldn't require the internet

No smartphone needed

Every language app today requires a smartphone and internet. For a million people in Cox's Bazar, that's not an option. A basic phone that makes calls is all Kotha needs.

Rohingya-first AI

Built from the ground up to understand and speak Rohingya fluently. Not an afterthought translation layer. The AI thinks in Rohingya to teach in English.

Free for callers

The toll-free number means zero cost for people calling from Bangladesh. No subscription. No hidden fees. Learning English should never be gated by money.

Memory that builds trust

Refugees are used to being treated as numbers. Kotha remembers your name, your progress, your struggles. It's a familiar voice that knows you.

One phone call can change a life.

Starting in Cox's Bazar with Rohingya speakers. Then every community in the world where people have a phone but not the internet. Language is the first door to opportunity, and Kotha is the key.
