AI tutors vs real teachers - how do you find balance?

There is an explosion of AI tools for learning English. Some people say they are enough. Others say nothing beats a human teacher. And both are a little bit right. AI can be available 24/7, respond instantly, and adapt quickly to your answers. But humans understand emotions, motivation, and the small details that machines often miss.

We decided not to choose sides when creating Naitly. Our AI brain builds a personal plan from the start - it analyzes your current level, spots weak areas, and adjusts exercises every day. But the structure behind it comes from teachers who know what actually works to move you from one CEFR level to the next.

I would love to hear from people who tried AI chatbots or AI grammar checkers:

• Did you feel they understood your mistakes or just corrected them?

• Did you keep using them after the first excitement or did motivation drop?

• Or did you end up going back to a human tutor because something felt missing?

It is easy to overpromise with AI, and we do not want to fall into that trap. What do you think is the one thing a good AI tutor must get right to be truly useful and not just a fun toy?
