Pronunciation Coach for short spoken English practice

Pronunciation Coach gives feedback on how an English learner reads a short sentence aloud. It is meant for practice on one recording at a time. The site also offers guided activities for situations such as ordering coffee or opening a presentation.

Record a sentence and listen back

The quick check starts with a sentence supplied by the site. Read it at your usual pace, then listen to the recording before sending it for assessment. If the first recording is hard to hear, you can record another. Recording and playback do not use checks. The site counts an assessment only after it completes.

The first check can start before sign-in. A Google account is required to view the full report and save progress. The pricing page says no invitation is required to sign in on the official site.

What the pronunciation report measures

The report addresses accuracy, fluency and completeness for the supplied sentence. Accuracy compares the recognized words with the reference pronunciation. Fluency covers the rhythm and pauses in that recording. Completeness measures how much of the sentence was recognized.

The publisher says noise and low recording volume can change the result. If a word scores poorly, replay it before deciding it needs more practice. The score applies to this sentence. It does not rate your overall English ability.

Free and guided practice

The pricing page lists three free assessments per UTC day, shared with the short guided sample. The full guided routine is part of Pro. It adds 300 checks per monthly allowance period, and unused checks do not roll over. The free allowance is enough to try the recording, playback and review sequence before deciding whether a longer routine fits.
