About

SpeakRounds

Features
Read full description

OET Speaking is scored on how you talk to a patient, not on what you know. Reading about it will not build that. Speaking will. SpeakRounds gives you a patient who talks back. Record your answer, hear the patient react, and finish a five-minute round. Then see the moments that cost you marks, quoted in your own words, each with a stronger version you can say again right away. Key features: - 16 original OET Nursing-style scenarios; - optional text replies when you cannot speak; - responsive AI patients with controlled case facts; - qualitative feedback across nine published Speaking criteria for voice practice; - content and communication feedback for text practice, without pronunciation or fluency assessment; - evidence-linked practice moments taken from your own round; - actual targeted retry and side-by-side transcript review; - separate app and feedback languages across ten supported languages; - accessible reduced-motion and screen-reader behavior. SpeakRounds is an independent educational tool. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by OET. AI feedback is a practice estimate for one role-play, not an official score, clinical advice, or a pass prediction. Never enter real patient information.
