"Adopting Extempore has allowed Priddy Learning Academies to roll out an English online program in Japan with an unparalleled speaking component. When used with our ELL students in the US, it accelerates their language acquisition through frequent speaking practice as homework."

Founder and Director,
Priddy Learning Academies
"Extempore offers and excellent solution for oral practice outside the classroom. It allows me to ensure that my students read the texts before class or practice Hebrew speech on their own. It also allows them to listen to their old recordings at the end of the course, so they can see how much they improved - even if they don't feel they did. I highly recommend!"
Dr. Or Rogovin
Assistant Professor,
Bucknell University
"After a successful pilot, we decided to roll out Extempore to all pronunciation and oral presentation courses in the Intensive English Language Program. Rapid student feedback enables instructors to provide real-time lesson modifications, eliminating concepts that were mastered and focusing on problem areas."

"I find Extempore really useful. I can have all my students’ oral assignments in one place and give them feedback online. It is a great tool for your students to practice and improve their oral proficiency."

"I have used Extempore for two years. It is an excellent app to encourage speaking in a foreign language. Every type of student in your class will enjoy this opportunity to practice speaking in the comfort of home, without the pressure of peers looking on. It is a great tool to practice presentation speaking and interpersonal conversations. It has been a great tool for in-class and homework assignments. The app is student friendly. You can do the assignment on the go, so there is no excuse with extracurricular and homework conflict. A great app for ALL language teachers and students!"

"I have my Spanish III class use Extempore about once per month. I LOVE IT! It’s a great tool to evaluate the students' speaking ability."
Holly Sechler
Spanish Teacher

"As an online English teacher, Extempore has allowed me to give my students even more speaking practice outside of our group lessons and 1-on-1s. I've been able to create an engaging curriculum connecting students to their target language every day, allowing them to practice and apply what was learned between our classes. It's been user friendly for both me and my students, convenient, and a very useful tool."
