Published: February 5, 2025

As an immigrant who learned English as an adult, I built this tool to solve a specific problem: “How do I say this phrase in English?” It’s not a course – it’s a simple utility that lets you:

1. Input text in 15+ languages or English (converts everything to English)
2. Hear pronunciation
3. Practice speaking it
4. Get instant AI feedback on accuracy

Tech stack:
– Flask + Bootstrap UI
– Google Translate + TTS APIs
– OpenAI for phonetic guidance
– Azure Speech for pronunciation scoring
– WebAudio API for recording

Live: https://englishpractice.io/

Looking for feedback on:
1. UX/UI improvements
2. Language-specific issues (especially with non-Latin scripts)
3. Browser compatibility

All feedback welcome.
