Trusted by second language teachers
So far I have found Speakable to be easy to use by both teacher and students. Being able to customize the vocab assignments is valuable for adapting to student needs and abilities. It’s especially useful for teachers who use Quizlet or Google Classroom. I like that I can record my own pronunciations for students to refer to, or I can use the automated AI voice. With Speakable I can personally evaluate all students in my class (and they can evaluate themselves, too). The creators are also very responsive and working to develop the program to best fit classroom needs.

Pronunciation

Research shows students need at least seven exposures to a new term to remember it. Adding new vocabulary to Speakable assignments gives students additional exposure to new terms and helps build their confidence in speaking each one.

Repeated, persistent exposure to the sounds of a new language is crucial for both increasing comprehension of spoken language and ability to produce comprehensible speech.
