Once you select your Conversation Title, Subject, and Mode, you’ll enter a simulation with one of Sayzi’s AI characters. Here's how it works:
👂 Step 1: Listen First
The AI character (AIC) will speak first.
Their sentence will appear in English on screen.
Your microphone will be disabled so you can focus on listening without distraction.
🎤 Step 2: Your Turn to Speak
Once the AIC finishes:
The microphone icon fades in (🎤).
In Scripted or Guided Mode, you’ll see a sentence prompt.
You’re now ready to respond aloud.
🧠 Need Help Saying It?
Tap the 🔊 speaker icon next to the prompt to:
Hear the correct pronunciation.
The mic will be temporarily disabled while the audio plays.
✅ Step 3: Speak Your Line
Once you're ready:
The mic button on, and say your sentence clearly.
The app will detect your speech and display your sentence below.
🔍 Step 4: Feedback from Sayzi
You’ll receive instant feedback on your pronunciation:
🟢 Green: Excellent pronunciation!
🟠 Orange: Needs improvement.
🔴 Red: Mispronunciation or missing words.
Pip (the assistant) will also show up to guide you with tips or encouragement.
The simulation will continue with the next line of conversation from the AIC.
