Author

Pierre-Henry Soria. A passionate software AI engineer and polyglot who created JoraSpeaks because of his love for learning new languages! ๐ŸŒ French is his mother tongue. He started learning English when he moved to Manchester, UK, and since then has learned many other languages. This personal journey of language learningโ€”experiencing the struggles, breakthroughs, and joy of connecting with different culturesโ€”inspired him to build JoraSpeaks: an AI-powered app that makes language learning more accessible, effective, and enjoyable for everyone.

When not coding or learning languages, Pierre-Henry enjoys traveling around the world, photography, exploring AI innovations, continuous learning, and staying healthy! ๐Ÿ˜Š Find me at pH7.me ๐Ÿš€
