time you improve

.

You take English lessons every week. Is anyone telling you what to fix?

The AI finds the pronunciation you could not hear, the mistakes you keep repeating and the habits you cannot see — and you can review it from your phone.

Recording and analysis happen in the Chrome extension on a PC (on a phone you can read the results).

01 — THE PROBLEM

Why the lessons stop showing results.

If you keep taking lessons and stop improving, the reason is not effort — it is a missing mechanism. A different tutor every time, feedback that evaporates, no outside view of your own speech ── none of it can be out-worked.

That nagging feeling — “maybe it's just me”, “maybe I'm not trying hard enough” —it's the setup, not you.
01

A different tutor every time, so nothing accumulates

On no-reservation services the tutor is whoever is free, so nobody carries over what you got wrong last time. The first few minutes of every 25-minute lesson go on introductions and re-explaining where you are.

02

The feedback after a lesson is thin, and it fades fast

Ten minutes after the lesson you can no longer say which word you stumbled on. Even taking notes costs you the next sentence while you write.

03

No objective read on your pronunciation

“I think I'm getting better” might just be a feeling. Nobody tells you which phoneme is off, or by how much.

04

You repeat the same mistakes without noticing

The “ah…” and “well…” fillers, the same narrow vocabulary, your grammar habits. Without an outside view they never get fixed.

05

No way out of the intermediate plateau

You have sat around B1–B2 for over a year. More lessons, extra coaching — and still no answer to which part of your English is not moving.

02 — STRUCTURE

Why you stall at intermediate. It is the structure, not your effort.

Second-language acquisition research keeps returning to the same three causes. None of them can be out-worked — they are gaps in how lessons are built.

Reason 01

Feedback scatters from tutor to tutor

The same error gets corrected on the spot by one tutor, let go by the next, and answered with a different note by a third. The more lessons you take, the more randomly your errors get caught.

≈28% standard deviation — whether you get corrected is up to the tutor
Reason 02

You cannot catch your own errors mid-conversation

While you are speaking, your attention goes to keeping the conversation alive, not to observing your own habits. An error you never notice does not get fixed, however many times you repeat it.

You only catch a fraction of your own errors while talking
Noticeda fraction
Missedmost of them
During conversation your working memory is spent keeping the conversation going. Research finds that learners who self-recognize their own errors mid-conversation are the exception(Mackey et al., 2000).
Reason 03

Wrong forms set, and stay set

An automated error gets stronger every time you repeat it. The same mistake beds in and becomes hard to shift — this is specific to intermediate learners; it does not happen at beginner level.

The more you repeat it, the more the wrong form sets
An error repeated without ever being flagged becomes unconscious — automated — and much harder to remove(Selinker, 1972 / DeKeyser, 2007).

Based on Schmidt (1990) Noticing Hypothesis / Selinker (1972) Fossilization / Lyster & Saito (2010) Corrective Feedback meta-analysis and related findings. The charts visualize typical values.

03 — HOW IT WORKS

Record → score → accumulate → AI coach. Four steps that make progress visible.

This is not just recording, and not just a score. Detailed feedback from every session accumulates as weak spots and vocabulary, and an AI coach that has read your whole history hands back the one thing to focus on next. That is what makes progress visible.

Step 1

Record — it just sits at the edge of your lesson

The SpeakCoach Chrome extension sits quietly beside the lesson you take in your browser. One tap records your voice. When the lesson ends, you stop it. That is all.

  • Records your microphone (full 25- and 50-minute sessions)
  • Small panel at the edge of the lesson — drag it anywhere you like
  • Check today's focus before you hit record

Step 2

Score — six axes, CEFR, and specific grammar and pronunciation notes

Your report usually arrives within two to four minutes of stopping. You get six scores — overall, grammar, naturalness, vocabulary, fluency and pronunciation — alongside an estimated CEFR level (A1–C2). Grammar slips are marked inline on the transcript, and pronunciation is shown with IPA down to the phoneme that went wrong.

  • Six-axis score plus a CEFR level estimate
  • Grammar slips marked inline on the transcript (articles, tense, prepositions …)
  • Pronunciation scored word by word with IPA and phoneme-level accuracy

Step 3

Accumulate — weak spots and vocabulary carry across sessions

Nothing stops at one lesson. Your weak spots, the words you stumbled on and the phrasings you newly met are tracked with a state, and come back just as they start to fade — so they are there for you in the next lesson.

  • Weak spots tracked in three states: mastered, in progress, fading
  • Words and new phrasings saved to My Vocabulary with their lesson context
  • Brought back just as you start to forget (spaced repetition into long-term memory)

Step 4

Talk to the AI coach — it plans the time between lessons too

Tap the penguin coach at the bottom right of your dashboard and a drawer opens into a chat. An AI that has read every one of your past sessions diagnoses what is holding each of the six scores back, and tells you specifically what to do with the time between lessons.

  • Penguin FAB → tap → drawer opens, available any time
  • Coaching with your full score and weak-spot history already in hand
  • Concrete plans for time outside lessons (flashcards, writing, and so on)
An AI coach that plans beyond the lesson
+ Behind the experience

Six features hold the four steps up.

A warning on mistakes you keep repeating

Weak spots you keep hitting are detected automatically. You get warned at the moment a slip is about to set as a habit, so the window to correct it is not missed.

Phrases to try next lesson (EASY / MID / STRETCH)

Phrases to use in your next lesson at three levels of difficulty, framed as replacements for your current habits — so your range widens without a jump.

Priority scores and recast detection

Every note carries a priority score, so what to fix first is obvious at a glance. Your teacher's recasts — the quiet reformulations — are highlighted automatically.

One intention for your next lesson

The AI proposes the single thing to hold in mind next time. It is always shown in the warm-up before you record.

Your own vocabulary list

Words you stumbled on and new phrasings accumulate together with their lesson context. You can add them from the panel during the lesson itself.

Learning dashboard

CEFR, streak, total sessions and your week-on-week movement in one place — with the weak spots to watch shown alongside.

04 — THE EVIDENCE

So it isn't just a feeling. Three principles from the science of learning.

Not “because it's AI” or “because it's new”, but three principles confirmed over decades of second-language acquisition research and cognitive science. SpeakCoach is built so that they fit into the lessons you already take.

Noticing

An error you never noticed will not stick, however often you repeat it

Learning moves when you can recognize your own habits. During conversation your brain spends its resources on keeping the conversation going, so your own errors go unseen.

How SpeakCoach uses it

After every session you see the habits you could not catch that day — so you can hold them in mind before you next speak.

How to correct

Prompting you to notice beats handing you the answer

Research finds that feedback which pushes you to self-correct sticks over 1.5× better than a gentle reformulation that just gives you the right form.

How SpeakCoach uses it

The AI coach does not lead with the answer — it starts with a hint. What you rephrase yourself is what you remember.

Against forgetting

Review works best just as you are about to forget

Retrieving something several times at spaced intervals builds longer-lasting memory than learning it once. This is settled ground in cognitive science.

How SpeakCoach uses it

The words and phrases you stumbled on today come back just as they start to fade — so they are available in your next lesson.

05 — COMPARISON

Real conversation × coaching that accumulates — in one Chrome extension.

ELSA and Speak are practice against an AI. Online lesson platforms give you a human to talk to. ChatGPT is a do-it-yourself setup. SpeakCoach starts from a recording of a real human conversation and builds up your weak spots and vocabulary from there.

06 — WHAT USERS SAY

The habits they could not see — visible for the first time.

These are from learners taking lessons daily to three times a week, around CEFR B1–B2, who are serious about improving.

I was speaking 25 minutes a day and had no idea I kept dropping the same articles. Playing the recording back, the missing “a / the” were covered in red markers — it was a shock. I watched for it in the next lesson and my tutor told me I sounded more fluent.

Daily online lessons · 5×/week for over a year
For ages all I had was a feeling that I was getting better. The six-axis score showed plainly that only my vocabulary was not moving. I set “don't use the same verb twice” as my next intention, and I could feel my range change after the lesson.

I thought I had been fixing my pronunciation, roughly. It was only when it showed me with IPA that my “θ” was being produced wrong that I actually understood. When that word dropped off the practice list within a week, I felt the difference from my previous lessons.

Step 4: Finish → your AI coaching arrives
08 — FAQ

Frequently asked questions.

Usually two to four minutes after you stop recording. A 25- or 50-minute recording has to be transcribed and then scored for pronunciation and coaching, so it is not instant. You can work in another tab while it processes.

After creating your account, install the extension from the Chrome Web Store. Install → log in to SpeakCoach → start recording from your next lesson. Setup takes about three minutes.

It works with lessons you take in a browser tab — 150+ online English lesson sites, including lessons held on Google Meet or Zoom. That covers tutor marketplaces, subscription platforms and school portals. If your service is not detected automatically, you can still start a recording by clicking the pinned SpeakCoach icon and pressing “Start recording”.

See how it works on other services →

For now it is only available as a Google Chrome extension on a PC. Because the audio is captured from the browser running your lesson, mobile browsers cannot support it. If you take your lessons on a phone, consider switching to a PC browser.

A built-in PC microphone or a wired headset or earbud mic works well. Most microphones get you all the way through pronunciation scoring, but some Bluetooth headsets — and mics with heavy built-in noise suppression — can reduce the accuracy of pronunciation scoring. Transcript, grammar and vocabulary feedback work normally on any microphone.

They are stored encrypted and only within your own account. Analysis runs through enterprise AI services such as OpenAI, Deepgram and Azure Speech, all chosen on contract terms under which your input is not used to train AI models. See the privacy policy for details.

It uses permission for microphone audio and for capturing tab audio. What it records is essentially your own speech; your teacher's audio is not captured by default (it is enabled per service only where that platform's terms of service permit recording). Both are used only for recording during a lesson — it does not collect what you browse or type outside the lesson page. Recordings are sent encrypted over HTTPS and stored inside your account.

Six scores — overall, grammar, naturalness, vocabulary, fluency and pronunciation — plus a CEFR level (A1–C2), grammar notes marked inline on the transcript, weak phrases accumulating over time, and study-direction advice from the AI coach. The more lessons you record, the more the feedback is specific to you.

Things like “my scores have flattened, what should I work on?”, “I can't get articles right”, “what should I focus on in my next lesson?” — all answered with your past session history in hand. It gets specific about what to do with the time between lessons too (vocabulary work, writing, and so on).

Yes — you can cancel from the following month at any time. After cancelling you lose access to your past sessions, but if you come back, the weak spots and vocabulary you built up carry over.
