ELSA Speak Reviews

Elsa is a wonderful app for learning english
Because, before knowing Elsa, I have had a bad pronunciation and the worst intonation. But now, with Elsa, I speak like a native. I have a better understanding of learning languajes. I have no fear to speak with an American, a Canadian or an Australian because I feel that I become strong in English. The main features of this app that I love so much are: pronunciation, intonation, learning of new words.
Let me say to you that the two first features(pronunciation and intonation) are the key to become an english speaker. I recommend highly this app to everybody who want to speak like a native because Elsa has broken all my bad habits in learning english. Now, I speak confidently.

Pronunce a word or a sentence several times when it seems difficult for the app understand what I am saying. Because, I feel and i listen that I pronunce very well the word, but Elsa,sometime has some difficulties to understand it. You can work to make Elsa better in this aspect.

Self-learning with interactive communication was very helpful for me and this Elsa speak gives me feedback on my speech which I thought it wouldn't be possible without off-line teacher. Speech recognition looks it works for me so far even sometimes I doubt how it would work as it just points out the same pattern over and over.

As I mentiond in the pros I feel sometimes the speech recognition gives me the same feedback. However it's not easy to find a way to improve it in this app and I think I need to get advices from teachers on the pattern. I saw the app has a community to find a teacher but I don't think they would know my progress in the Elsa speaking.

It helps with my pronunciation and speaking.

Sometimes the software does not recognize the voice or is not clear about why your pronunciation is wrong. I need to use it to improve my performance, but I hate the kind of feedback.

The speech recognition is excellent that I use every day. I also love the dictionary and lessons of ELSA. I've recommended this app for many of my students and friends.

I do hope that the dictionary can be used offline.

I loved the automated training programs. I've done them all and would like to have more like those (with the 7 steps & test in the end)

I would love to see how to stress and do intonation everywhere like I do have feedback on the pronunciation. I'd also love to have feedback on the stress / intonation

It provides real confidence after a short time of constant practice.

It's a little slow, I have to wait a long time to be able to click on to next one.

I like the content, variety of topics. My level was intermediate when I had started this app. Now I can pronounce like 90% as native speaker.

Only price is a bit expensive for me. Other things are great

* It gives a good feedback about how your accent sounds and what do you need to improve in your accent
* It gives instructions about how to create those sounds (e. g. relax your lips, drop your jaw etc.)

* As said, the reminders didn't work well
* I wish there was a lessson that focuses and elaborates more on the IPA showed on the feedback
* Sometimes the app waits a few seconds to download the lesson or check for updates, not sure if it's my internet or something but it kinds of annoying

I think this software is easy to use and funny

I think this software is rarely support for learner

In 20 min daily I can improve my English on an easy and interesting way

Freezing too often, sometimes I don't know what should I pronounce better. Big problem is the poor main dashboard, hard to monitor the achievement and development

The intonation was the most impactful because when I'm talking in English, I don't want to sound like a robot. The product was straightforward to use; it does by itself.
Elsa helped me a lot; integration with my existing business was easy.

This is something I couldn't evaluate right now because I'm delighted till now.

This is the first app I tried that used AI to learn the language

Somehow the app not stable even though my internet connection didn't mess

the design of the app
gamification
I like the fact that I can record myself to compare my pronunciation and try to correct my mistakes

I'd like to get more advices ore videos to correct the pronunciation mistakes

The best thing about this software is it can detect the pronunciation in every details and suggest you improve on it.

The subscription fee should be more affordable.

focus on interactive speaking, practical learning with assessment, seeing progress and improvement, understanding errors and fixing them

learning movement from zero to improved level

It is so interesting App to start with to evaluating real English level then keep working on language skills on as Word Stress , Intonation, Fluency, and pronunciation to the perfection as native speakers besides the vocabulary and grammar.

Actually, I have nothing to say in this section, I've found that app by chance and I do love it day after day.

It Improves my pronunciation , also it has a variety of courses .

I hope if they make videos of conversations .

It really helped me improve my pronunciation and fluency. I used to use some even simple word in English incorrectly.

Although every thing is good, maybe when the learner tries a word a lot and doesn't know where the problem is, the app should open the camera to analyze the mouth gesture of the learner to realize the problem.

I've never used a better AI for language. In fact, I'm amazed that no other company has successfully replicated Elsa speak. Typically, everyone rushes to imitate good products. I'm guessing they couldn't since the quality was so excellent.

I wish I could access it on my computer (web browser) too.

Great help in mastering English pronunciation

Only mobile app
No vocabulary translation

- feedback on your recordings and feedback on mistakes
- training pronunciation, fluency, intonation and word stress
- daily goals are motivating for keeping streaks

- sometimes, the application freezes, and I have to repeat the lesson from the beginning
- some lessons focus on business English, which is complex and boring
- I don't know what Cassiopeia league is and how it works

Easy of use, the Voice analisys is amazing. Great tô develop the pronounce.

I don't have any cons about it. It's a great software.

It is easy to use, organize like basic to professional, have choices it defends on the user which one she/he preferred to use.

Don’t have categories so far like if medical, what I mean is it is broaden, the topic is more on general.

I see my progress and I can choose different skills to practice. It also has variety of topics.

Sometimes doesn’t detect pronunciation properly
I passed a course and didn’t get the certification
After a month it didn’t develop me an special course as it did on free trial

The word and sentence pronunciation percentage match with native speaker helps me to gauge where I stand and also slow motion speaker option helps me to get every bit clear.

Not sure if i see any, all the features are very helpful.
