Abstract

The present invention is in the field of automated systems and methods for improving of oral language proficiency. As a result of increasing internationalization there is a growing demand from education and business community for people who speak foreign languages well. An intelligible pronunciation is regarded as important for e.g. successful inter- action and social acceptance. However, an important problem is that oral proficiency training requires so much time, feedback and practice, that very often it cannot be sufficiently provided in traditional language classes. Thereto an automated system is provided.
