Tips during your Drill.
Your microphone will be live when you are in class 🎤
Be mindful that everything you say will be heard 👂
If you want to practice or repeat sentences during Drill, try muting yourself 🤫 and then quickly unmuting yourself when the Drill Instructor or another student calls on you.
You will be sent a report card including your score on pronunciation and memory retention and words to practice. This grade is confidential between you and Beepboop.
What is Drill?
Beepboop Drill is a speaking-focused, 25-minute long, online group language lesson. Each Drill is taught by a live Drill Instructor in a round-robin style where students are guided through a series of fun memory and pronunciation exercises. The goal of Drill is to get you comfortable speaking and prevent you from forming bad habits when it comes to pronunciation.
What Makes Drill Unique?
Speak More
During a 25-minute Drill, you'll speak around 300 words and "mouth" around 1,000 words!
Memorize Faster
Drill is designed to keep you on the edge of your seat and have your brain operating at 100%. It's not easy, but you'll be amazed how much you'll retain after just one 25-minute Drill.
Correct Your Pronunciation
Drill instructors provide instantaneous corrective pronunciation feedback (we call it Beepboop technology and no other language learning app has anything like it).
Messy Hair Don't Care
This is an online, audio-only class, so don't worry how you look. We won't see you! Audio-only classes help improve listening comprehension skills and create a more comfortable environment for making mistakes.
