Devrait-on avoir une journée sans réunions chaque semaine ? Expliquez votre point de vue.

Up to 90 seconds to speak

Beyond rehearsed phrases

French conversation does not come with subtitles or retakes.

You may know the grammar on paper and still hesitate when someone asks for an opinion, a story, or a quick explanation. This gives that moment somewhere to practise.

01

Conversation

Add detail when someone asks a natural follow-up.

02

Work and study

Explain a choice without building the sentence in English first.

03

Oral exams

Organise an unfamiliar topic under light time pressure.

04

Daily life

Tell a short story with a beginning, change and outcome.

A speaking drill for language learners

What is impromptu French speaking practice?

It is the practice of answering an unfamiliar question in French without writing the response first. The point is not to give a polished speech. It is to notice which words and structures are available when you have to create the answer yourself.

  1. 01

    Choose a question

    Browse the library, spin a topic, generate one or write your own.

  2. 02

    Answer in one take

    Start when you are ready and speak for up to 90 seconds.

  3. 03

    Use the report

    Read the transcript, choose one change and record a stronger second take.

Four French topics to try

Speaking French under pressure

Turn careful French into usable French.

One unscripted take reveals different gaps from a written exercise—and gives you an immediate second try.

01

Hold the sentence together

Keep agreement and verb forms steady while attention stays on the message.

02

Use spoken connectors

Guide the listener through a reason, contrast or consequence.

03

Hear the rhythm

Use pronunciation feedback to compare liaison, sounds and phrasing across retries.

One take at a time

See what changes on the second take.

ChickyTutor shows what it heard, scores the answer, and points to one change worth making while the first take is still fresh.

Questions before you speak

What to expect from impromptu practice.

Does the French pronunciation score use a French locale?

Yes. Supported recordings are assessed with the fr-FR locale and the results appear separately from the main transcript-based report.

Will ChickyTutor correct every French mistake?

The report prioritises the evidence it can support and the change most useful for a better next take; it is not an exhaustive correction list.

What is impromptu speaking practice?

It trains you to organise an answer and speak without reading a script. You choose a prompt, start when you are ready, and talk for up to 90 seconds.

How does ChickyTutor analyse my speech?

ChickyTutor transcribes your recording, measures delivery, and scores relevance, structure, grammar and vocabulary. Pronunciation scores are added when your browser and selected language support them.

Which languages can I practise?

Choose from 14 languages, including English, Spanish, Dutch, Mandarin Chinese, Hindi and Swedish. Every language has its own 32-prompt library.

Can I choose my own speaking topic?

Yes. Shuffle the topic library, ask ChickyTutor to make a prompt about a subject, or write the exact question you want to practise.

Does ChickyTutor save my recording?

No. Your recording is processed to create the report and is not saved to your account.
