Speak Like a Native—Busuu’s New AI Tool Helps You Master Pronunciation

Postby katharine » Fri Apr 11, 2025 6:08 pm

Busuu, a language learning app under Chegg, has unveiled its latest innovation: Speaking Practice, a cutting-edge feature that helps users refine their speaking skills anytime, anywhere. Using artificial intelligence and native speaker videos, the tool simulates real-life conversation scenarios and provides instant, actionable feedback.

According to a recent survey by Busuu and EY-Parthenon, 66% of learners prefer “listen and repeat” exercises, while 55% are focused on improving their speaking abilities. Busuu’s Speaking Practice addresses both needs by letting users hear native pronunciation and practice out loud in a low-pressure environment. The tool grades speech accuracy and highlights mispronounced words to encourage active improvement.

Learners can practice speaking English, Spanish, French, or German. The AI feedback is especially robust for English and Spanish learners, with sentence-level scoring and guidance. Whether you're a beginner or brushing up on fluency, the tool adapts to your level and offers feedback to match.

One of the most engaging aspects is the inclusion of native speaker videos, which model correct mouth movement and accent usage. This helps users tune their pronunciation and better understand the rhythm and tone of each language.

“Speaking Practice was designed to help people overcome the fear of speaking a new language,” said Gino Micacchi, VP of Product at Busuu. “It’s realistic, immersive, and most importantly, personalized.”

Learners can try two lessons for free, and for full access, consider upgrading to Busuu Premium Plus for unlimited speaking sessions and enhanced feedback tools.

Busuu’s courses are carefully crafted by language experts and follow a scaffolded structure—building vocabulary and grammar knowledge before introducing Speaking Practice. Someone who needs to Busuu Top Up can find services at Z2U.COM. Transactions are also fast and secure, which will definitely improve your video experience!
