Raven - Shadowing & Dictation

Improve your English speaking skills with Raven — the language learning app built around the shadowing method and dictation exercises. Whether you're a beginner (A1) or advanced learner (C1), Raven helps you build real speaking confidence through structured practice. 🎯 HOW RAVEN WORKS Raven combines two proven language learning techniques into one app: Shadowing Practice — Listen to a native English speaker, then repeat what you hear. Raven uses speech recognition to compare your pronunciation with the original and gives you a real-time accuracy score. This is the same technique used by interpreters and language professionals to build fluency fast. Dictation Exercises — Listen to English words and sentences, then type what you hear. Raven scores your spelling accuracy instantly, helping you connect listening skills with vocabulary knowledge. 📚 STRUCTURED ENGLISH LESSONS Every lesson in Raven is carefully designed by language educators: - 30 topics covering everyday vocabulary — family, travel, work, food, health, and more - Lessons from beginner to advanced (CEFR A1 to C1) - 8-10 vocabulary words per lesson with audio pronunciation - Reading passages at the right level for each lesson - Content based on proven English vocabulary curriculum 📊 TRACK YOUR PROGRESS Stay motivated and see how far you've come: - XP points for every completed exercise - Weekly leaderboard to compete with other learners - Personal vocabulary word bank with flashcard review - Spaced repetition system to help you remember words long-term - Weekly progress charts showing words learned and XP earned 🗣️ PRONUNCIATION TRAINING Raven's speech recognition technology analyzes your English pronunciation in real time.
