Skill Boosts – speaking practice after spaced review

Turn the words you learn into speaking practice

Skill Boosts continue the memory cycle: spaced review brings words back, then guided practice makes you recall, reshape, and use them in real situations. Answer by voice or typing.

Built from words you already learn or a situation you describe

Recall, reshape, and use the words – not another flashcard pass

Repeat saved practice free – repetition is the point

How it works

From spaced review to real use

AI prepares focused prompts, but the work is yours: pull words from memory, hold them long enough to change them, and use them in a real answer.

1

Start from remembered words

Use words brought back by spaced review, or describe the conversation, event, or task you want to prepare for.

2

Work through one short sequence

Each prompt builds on the previous answer, so working memory stays focused on one manageable language operation.

3

Save the situations that matter

Save the practice, pin important situations, repeat without using the daily limit, and track what becomes easier to say.

Each tab shows how a real practice works: answer a prompt, compare the structure, and see how words move from memory into use.

Practice that makes words stick

Keep the memory, then make it usable

Spaced review supports long-term retention along the Ebbinghaus forgetting curve. Skill Boost and quizzes add varied retrieval and production, so the same vocabulary has to work beyond the card.

Each spaced review strengthens recall before it fades

The right timing keeps words alive

Spaced repetition brings a word back just as it starts to fade, so it stays with you.

Varied retrieval makes it usable

Practice sessions and quizzes ask you to recall the same words through different cues, sentences, and situations instead of only recognizing them on a card.

Build language one working-memory step at a time

Short, connected prompts keep the right words in front of you, and each step asks for just one thing.

reschedule reschedule a meeting Could we reschedule the meeting? One word grows into a real phrase

One clear step at a time

Instead of dropping you into an open chat, each session breaks practice into clear steps: recall what matters, hold it briefly, and say the next thing.

The right words stay in front of you

Prompts and feedback keep the useful words and situation in focus, so the challenge can grow without overloading the session.

Practice that stays useful after the first session

Create from your own situation, keep the best sessions, and return to them whenever the language matters.

Use your own situation

Describe a meeting, trip, call, or conversation and get a practice built around that goal.

Skill Boost FAQ

Questions before your first practice

Skill Boosts are short speaking practice sessions built from words you have learned or a situation you describe. You recall the words, change them, and use them in a real situation, with clear feedback at every step.

Words fade when you only ever see them on cards. Spaced review brings a word back right before you would forget it, and the practice sessions make you actually use it – that is what makes it stick.

Passive words are the ones you understand but never say. Skill Boosts make you pull them from memory and use them in real situations, so they become words you actually say and write.

No. You can answer by voice or by typing, so you can practice wherever you are.

Yes. Describe a situation in one or two sentences and a suitable Skill Boost format is picked automatically. Suggestions can also be built from words you have already learned.

The free plan includes 3 new practices a day, and paid plans include enough for every day. Repeating a saved practice never uses the daily limit, and you can pin the practices you want to keep.
