The Silent Classroom Problem
Every language teacher knows the struggle: you ask a question, and the room goes silent. Students are often terrified of making mistakes in front of their peers.
The AI Assistant Solution
Ms. Rodriguez introduced Speaking Genie as a "homework buddy." Students could practice the week's dialogue with the AI as many times as they needed in private.
The result? When they came to class, they were ready. Voluntary participation skyrocketed by 90% because the fear of the unknown was gone. They had already "rehearsed" the conversation and knew they could do it.
