Is AI Changing How We Teach Speaking?

Speaking used to be the hardest skill to teach at scale. It took hours to prepare, grade, and revisit. But that’s starting to change.

AI is making speaking easier to practice, faster to assess, and more consistent to track. And teachers are leading the way in figuring out how to use it with purpose.

Here’s how it’s transforming speaking instruction in real classrooms.

🧠 Instant Feedback, Real Growth

With AI tools, students can now receive feedback immediately after speaking. It’s no longer about waiting days to hear how they did. A quick response helps them improve at the moment and builds confidence over time.

🎯 Teachers Focus on What Matters

When AI handles routine scoring, teachers have more time to focus on the big picture: ideas, clarity, creativity. It’s not about automating teaching. It’s about giving teachers more room to teach.

👂 Listening to Every Student, More Often

AI doesn’t replace the teacher’s ear, but it makes it easier to track progress across the class. You can finally see how your students are growing, without having to listen to every response in real-time.

💬 Speaking Becomes a Routine, Not a Special Event

Instead of saving speaking for test days, teachers are embedding it into the week. With tools that make it quick to assign and easy to check, speaking becomes a regular part of learning.

Speakable Could Be Your Right-Hand Tool

Speakable gives teachers a way to build consistent speaking routines without extra work. You can create assignments in minutes, use AI-generated rubrics, give instant feedback, and track student growth over time.

Students speak more. Teachers spend less time grading. And schools gain more visibility into progress.
