Language practice
Your people know the language. They need practice using it at work.
Employees and students rehearse real conversations in the language they need.

5–10 min
per conversation, as often as they like
Classroom language doesn't survive the first real conversation
Plenty of people can read the email, pass the test and follow the meeting. Then a client talks quickly, interrupts, or pushes back, and the words aren't there.
What's missing is speaking practice, and three things keep it scarce.
Speaking time is the scarcest part
In a group class, each learner speaks for a few minutes. Tutors and conversation partners are expensive to scale.
Courses teach vocabulary, not nerve
Knowing the words isn't the same as finding them under pressure, with someone waiting for an answer.
Mistakes feel public
People stay quiet in meetings held in their second language, because getting it wrong in front of colleagues feels costly.
What a practice conversation actually looks like
Short enough to fit into a working day, and close enough to the real thing that learners feel the same nerves.
01
Pick the language and the conversation
A library scenario, an open conversation on any topic, or one built around your own course or workplace.
02
They speak out loud
Real voice, real time, five to ten minutes. Alone, with nobody listening to the mistakes.
03
The character responds
At natural speed, to what was actually said. No script to memorize and no set answers.
04
Score, then go again
Feedback within seconds, then the same conversation again, or a harder one. As many times as it takes.
Runs in the browser, on a tablet, or in a VR headset. Nothing to install before the first session.

"The experience with Virtual Speech was truly worthwhile. The outcomes were very positive, not only because of the real-time interactive practice and tailored conversations adapted to both our course content and learners’ needs, but also due to the detailed and rigorous feedback generated by the tool."
Practice the conversation, not just the language
This isn't a vocabulary app. The same roleplays your teams use for sales, service and leadership run in more than 20 languages, so learners practice the exact conversations they'll have at work.
A support agent handles a complaint in Spanish. A manager gives feedback in German. A graduate interviews in French. The character holds a position and reacts to how things are said, in the language they're said in.
Examples
One library, any language
| Angry Customer | Spanish |
| Discovery Call | German |
| Giving Feedback (SBI) | Dutch |
| Panel Interview | French |
| Presenting to a boardroom | Italian |
| Free Conversation | Any topic, any supported language |
Feedback on how it landed, not just what was said
Every conversation is scored against named criteria for that scenario, with the moment behind each score and what to try instead. Delivery is measured too: pace, hesitations and clarity.
For language learners, that's the difference between "I got through it" and knowing exactly which answer to practice again.
Example: Panel interview in French
Overall: 7.4
"Your answer about the logistics project was clear and well paced, with a concrete result at the end."
"You set up the situation well, but moved to the result before explaining what you did yourself."
"When the second panelist asked about your weaknesses, you paused and switched topic. A short prepared answer would have kept you in control."
Hesitations: 2

Clarity: 71%

"Students tried VirtualSpeech in Spanish, and the experience was smooth and intuitive. Even though English isn’t some of our students' first language, the platform still effectively helps them gain confidence in communication skills. It’s exciting to see how the platform supports language learning while also building confidence."
