Results of Using Elsa Speak

This is my last post on the topic Elsa Speak. In my writing this time, I will continue from my previous writing. If I previously told you how I completed skills 1 to 4, this time I will discuss skills 5 to 14 that are available in free services.

On week 2 I can only complete 1 skill. I feel lazier than the previous week. Although there are a lot of reminder notifications, I was concerned about that because there were so many presentation tasks and so on. So I put Elsa Speak aside and do everything else. Until time, I rarely opened Elsa Speak and made me unable to finish until the 14th skill. I also do not do all the lessons in it because I have not been able to take the time on the sidelines of the tasks and the many activities of the organization that makes me have to think extra to divide my study time, work on assignments, and rest. However, I take the time to open Elsa Speak, even if it's only one or two minutes. So the result is now I can complete several skills with a score and ability level as below.

 

From that result, I felt that Elsa Speak affected my ability in English pronunciation. Because in the past I was still often wrong in saying a word, but with Elsa Speak, I can learn and if I'm wrong then Elsa Speak, which uses Artificial Intelligents, will give me a correction and I will know where I need to correct the error. For the motivation, watch the video for ending this post.

How I Use Elsa Speak

Welcome back to my blog. This is my second article. This time I will tell how I use the Elsa Speak application, how the obstacles I face, and how I overcome them. After I know this application, I immediately download it on Playstore, because I use android. For a simple way to download it, just open Playstore on Android or Appstore on iOS, then search Elsa Speak and click download. Wait until the download process is complete, then Elsa Speak is ready to operate on your cellphone. Or you can see in the video below.

Ok, after I downloaded Elsa Speak and first opened it, I was immediately interested in how it looks very wow. With a dark purple base with the addition of other light colors, it makes Elsa Speak very cool and interesting to look. There are only 5 features available in it, like the image below.

  

In the first week, I was very enthusiastic to practice. I can complete skills 1 to skill 4, each of which has 2 until 4 skills that can be opened from many skills there, because I use regular or free Elsa Speak. The results I can vary, but this skill 1 to 4 I often get 3 stars. It makes me even more excited to try. So I can correct my mistakes in the pronunciation of a word.


The problem I face when using Elsa Speak is with a weak internet connection. Elsa Speak requires a very good internet connection to be able to smoothly work on each lesson. I ever overslept when I waited for the application to load because there was no network at that time. It makes me late and long working on all the lessons in skills 1 to 4, and sometimes it makes me lazy. Fortunately, in the Elsa Speak application there is a reminder to remind me that I have to practice, at which time I can set it as I wish. It makes me easy to overcome my laziness problem. See you in my next post.

Hello,  this is my first post in Blogger. In this post, I will discuss a little thing about waht is Elsa Speak and how to operate it. Previously, there are many students that had difficulty in their speaking skills, especially in saying a word (pronunciation). To overcome this problem, there is an online application that can be utilized, that is Elsa Speak. This is an app designed for supporting people who have demand on studying and practicing English skills. By using different ways of practicing English, this app will help us improve speaking skills in the most professional way (elsaspeak.net, 2019). You can get lots of information about Elsa Speak in https://elsaspeak.net/elsa-speak-app/.


It started get to know Elsa Speak when the lecturer told us in the Computer Literacy Online class. After that I immediately downloaded and started to try to practice it. But first I looked at reviews about Elsa Speak to find out what Elsa Speak was.
