Answer Question
Practice Your Pronunciation with Fluenz
In case this helps others... I found a way to check my pronunciation while using Fluenz.
I'm using iOS, but I'm sure there's a similar function on Android. You will want to activate both the English dictionary and the dictionary for the language you're learning. You will need also need to activate both the English keyboard and the keyboard for your desired language. In my case I've activated English and Spanish in both places.
I go through each lesson twice. The first time I do all the written exercises by typing the answers. The second time, I use speech-to-text instead of typing.
Doing it this way not only lets me know whether or not I can be understood, it also forces me to pay attention in a different way. It's especially challenging on longer sentences. And when I use Challenge mode, I can really see if I'm emphasizing the correct syllables on accented words.
Getting more out of the same program? Priceless.
