Impromptu

English learners in Hong Kong face a unique set of challenges when it comes to developing their speaking skills. Large classes, limited access to native English speakers, and an exam-oriented curriculum all limit the amount of feedback students receive on their speaking abilities. Impromptu is a mobile application that seeks to bridge this gap, utilizing speech recognition and generative AI to provide timely, informative feedback to secondary-school English learners on their spoken responses. Impromptu's feedback will focus on grammar, vocabulary, organization, and ideas, and make recommendations to help students speak English with greater confidence.
