WHAT DOES IT DO?
The Burlington Speech Trainer (BST) uses a database based on tens of thousands of recordings of Spanish teenagers, which allows it to recognise and correct the typical errors of this type of speaker while ignoring other non-typical mistakes.

HOW DOES IT WORK?
Using its Spanish database, the BST listens and identifies the exact sound the student has difficulties with. The Train me button takes the student into a personalised pronunciation course. The pronunciation course helps the student recognise the error, and shows the student how to articulate the sound correctly.

The BST then offers a variety of practice activities to perfect the pronunciation of a particular sound, such as minimal pairs differentiation practice and sound discrimination practice.

Once the students have completed the pronunciation course, the Progress Assessment screen offers them and their teachers an easy way to monitor their progress.

Unit-by-Unit, Step-by-Step
The BST identifies pronunciation errors and develops fluency.

	Step 1 Focus on pronunciation - VOCABULARY: Students practise pronunciation of selected vocabulary from their specific Burlington coursebook.
	Step 2 Focus on pronunciation - EXPRESSIONS: Students practise saying expressions.
	Step 3 Focus on communication - MINI-DIALOGUES: Students conduct mini-dialogues with the Trainer.
	Step 4 Focus on communication - DIALOGUES: Students conduct full dialogues with the Trainer.
