Overview of Speaking Companion

Speaking Companion is designed as a friendly, interactive tool to assist individuals in practicing and improving their speaking skills across various languages. Unlike traditional language learning platforms that may focus on a wide array of skills—reading, writing, listening, and speaking—Speaking Companion specializes in the spoken aspect of language learning. It simulates natural conversation, providing feedback, corrections, and encouragement in a conversational manner. This tool is particularly adept at adapting to the user's proficiency level, making it an effective companion for users ranging from beginners to advanced learners. An example scenario could be a user practicing their English speaking skills. The user attempts to describe their day, and Speaking Companion listens, offering suggestions on pronunciation, vocabulary enhancements, and grammar corrections. This immediate feedback helps the user to learn in a 'real-world' context, improving their fluency and confidence. Powered by ChatGPT-4o
