Description: Speak It Yourself is an immersive, interactive language learning program. We combine 360⁰ video, interactive audio and text, voice recognition, Natural Language Processing and cloud computing to create a seamless, realistic, engaging, interactive language learning tool. The product takes you through a series of dialogues where you are immersed in a local culture, speak with real people and are coached to learn to speak a new language quickly and easily. Voice recognition, NLP and AI technologies allow us to provide feedback to students as well as create an individualized learning experience. Through the use of gamification, rewards, accomplishments, and challenges our application creates a fun, engaging and addicting experience for learners which increases their retention, improves their conversational skills and keeps them actively involved in the learning experience. The combined use of these techniques makes the learners feel like they are playing a game instead of the usual feeling of “putting in the time” to learn a language. In addition we incorporate a social experience into our platform. Learners, through the use of avatars, collaborate within the virtual world to visit places together, take on team challenges, and learn to speak a foreign language together. By connecting our application to an LMS (learning management system) we are able to provide institutions and enterprise clients with granular data about learner performance and achievement. This way we create a seamless experience satisfying the needs of both the individual learners and the admins/clients. Our Rapid Language Acquisition™ methodology, proven over 30 years of use, teaches students to read, write and speak the basics of a second language in as little as five days. We have ported the RLA™ method into VR with students and teachers giving us extraordinarily positive feedback on our MVP.
