Description

In the realm of language learning, pronunciation plays a pivotal role in effective communication. This paper introduces dictation.io, a free speech recognition app available online, as a useful tool for helping students pronounce words correctly. Dictation.io transcribes spoken words into written text and gives users instant visual feedback so they can fix pronunciation mistakes. Teachers may create a dynamic, captivating, and self-paced learning environment by incorporating dictation.io into language learning techniques. This tool improves learners' speaking confidence and listening comprehension in addition to improving pronunciation. Consequently, using dictation.io is a big step in giving students the tools they need to succeed in a worldwide world. It is recommended that more research be done to examine its potential in various learning environments and with various learner populations. Therefore, this paper would probe and attempt to recommend several ways of using this tool for middle and high school students’ pronunciation self-training.
