But don't worry. This is your chance to improve your speaking skills, learn proper pronunciation from Speaking, and then try speaking again, paying attention to your accent. If the app can recognize your speech, your speech will work for people! Try using the app in conjunction with your regular vocabulary book or language book to practice your speaking.
