Speaking a language is more than just getting the consonants and vowels right. For professional actors, speaking a line in the script must convey depth of character and the appropriate emotion in the moment. Who wouldn’t want to speak their second language with greater depth and meaning?

Teachers can now offer their students automatically scored “Movie Clip Duets.” Give your students the opportunity to practice their pronunciation by imitating Hollywood actors as they say their lines.

How do “Movie Clip Duets” work?

The system shows a video clip of a Hollywood actor saying his or her lines. Watch the video and learn the line. Then, click “Start recording” to activate your webcam. Click “Stop recording” and submit your video for automatic scoring. The system gives you a score based on how well you said the words in the clip.

See below for an example of how it looks to the student.
