Pronunciation Score
x
close
This pronunciation score graph shows how clearly and correctly student´s are speaking. Grades are based on how well they say each sound and word (accuracy), how smoothly you speak (fluency), if they say all the required words (completeness), and how natural their rhythm and tone are (prosody). It reflects how closely they sound to a native speaker overall. To see a specific student´s score, click on the link that says, ¨view details for each student.¨
Fluency Score
x
close
The fluency score shows how smoothly and naturally students speak. It measures their pacing—how often they pause, how long the pauses last, and how evenly their speech flows. Speaking too slowly, pausing too much, or sounding choppy will lower their score. Speaking with a steady rhythm and minimal awkward breaks will raise it. It’s not about speed—it’s about natural flow.

Spanish Power Course
x
close

Spanish Power is a comprehensive course that progresses from Basic to Expert levels, with 12 structured lessons in each level. The four levels are Basic, Intermediate, Advanced, and Expert. Each level builds step by step toward Spanish language mastery.

Depending on the learner’s goals, aptitude, and available time, a healthy pace ranges from two to six lessons per month. Each lesson takes the average learner about three hours to complete, with the option to invest additional time practicing with their virtual tutor.

Virtual Tutoring Practice
x
close

Students can enhance their learning by practicing directly with our virtual tutors. While not human, these tutors are highly humanized and engaging. Voices are available in accents from Mexico and Costa Rica.

Practice sessions are designed to reinforce specific lesson content or focus on key subjects from the course, providing targeted and immersive Spanish language development. After each session, students can review all their answers and even grade their pronunciation using voice samples from their own responses, giving them valuable insight into their progress and areas for improvement.

Virtual Tutoring Conversation
x
close

Students can build real conversational confidence through our virtual tutoring conversation sessions. These interactive sessions simulate natural dialogue with humanized virtual tutors, allowing students to apply what they´ve learned in dynamic, real-time exchanges.

Conversations are guided by specific course themes and vocabulary, with voice options in accents from Mexico and Costa Rica. After each session, students receive specific feedback on their ability to comprehend and engage in the conversation, helping them improve fluency, listening skills, and spontaneous expression.

Average Quiz Scores
x
close

This section displays the average quiz score of your students based on completed lessons in Spanish Power. Quizzes are included at the end of each lesson, but only for students enrolled in the Certification Tier of the Spanish Power Experience. Students in the Core or Conversation Tiers do not have access to these quizzes.

A score between 14 and 17 out of 20 earns a Movement Badge, indicating solid progress. Scores of 18 or 19 earn a Mastery Badge, reflecting a high level of understanding. A perfect score of 20 earns the Perfect Quiz Badge. All badges are dated and personalized with the student’s name for authentication and recognition of achievement.

Average Exam Grades
x
close

This section displays the average exam grade of your students based on full certification exams. These exams, both written and verbal, are administered at the end of each level and are available exclusively to students in the Certification Tier of the Spanish Power Experience. They are comprehensive assessments designed to fully evaluate each student’s language ability.

A minimum score of 80 percent is required to pass, earn certification, and advance to the next level of instruction. Scores between 80 and 93 receive a Movement Badge. Scores above 94 are recognized as Mastery on the certificate and also earn a Mastery Badge. A perfect score of 100 percent earns a Perfect Exam Badge, along with special recognition printed on the certificate itself.

Progression Against Goal
x
close

This section shows each student’s progression against their personalized goal over the last four weeks. When a student begins the course, they set a monthly lesson goal based on how many Spanish Power lessons they aim to complete each month. This metric tracks how closely their actual progress aligns with that goal.

For example, if a student sets a goal of completing 3 lessons per month and completes 2.8, they are 0.2 lessons behind their stated goal. If they complete 3.5, they are 0.5 lessons ahead of goal. This helps both students and coaches stay aligned with learning expectations and make timely adjustments when needed.

Session Settings Overview
x
close

Your session preferences let you customize how you interact with your tutor. The default setup is designed for smoother performance and faster feedback. By default, the tutor’s voice is muted to help sessions process more quickly, but you can enable it anytime if you prefer spoken feedback.

Your voice recordings are set by default for review before upload, allowing you to listen, confirm, and adjust your answer. When reviewing, the playback text appears in the box next to the microphone so you can easily check what you said. If you prefer a faster rhythm, you can switch to automatic upload so your response sends immediately. This option works best if you want to keep the session moving with more flow and interactivity.

You can also mute response sounds, keep the tutor’s feedback speed at a natural pace, and receive both coaching and scoring feedback. Scoring feedback explains where points were deducted and why, helping you improve with each exercise. If you skip scoring feedback during the session, you’ll still receive a summary report after all 10 exercises showing your scores for each one. These defaults create an efficient, focused, and flexible learning experience.
