What makes Nualang so special?
-
Nualang helps improve language basics, particularly ones that require individualized support, like pronunciation! With Nualang, students practice key words and phrases related to each chapter, and they get lots of scaffolded practice. They can hear their recording, listen to a variety of other voices, see their score, and try again. The best part is that since students can practice anytime, anywhere, they gain confidence speaking.
-
Book character chatbots recreate scenes from each chapter, allowing the students to listen and speak, which helps solidify their ability to work with key ideas. And an open-ended chat asks students to answer comprehension questions about what they read, then expands the conversation to include personalized questions. These exercises motivate learners to converse—a lot!
-
Our Nuala chatbots are keen to chat with students. Some Nualas have built-in lessons, while others are an open canvas, ready for you to create your own lessons and conversations. And the individualized support and instant feedback from Nualas ensure students' skills develop, even with limited teacher time.
-
Students can save their answers to open-ended activities, allowing teachers to gain helpful insights from individual student analysis and classroom heat maps that show how the class is doing as a whole.
-
Customize language learning based on your needs and preferences. Customizable and auto-generated content like roleplay exercises and chatbot conversations get your students talking about the things they love and give them instant feedback as they practice. You can even create your own scenarios and fun activities to get your students talking about the stuff they love.
-
Access a library of lessons made by teachers and conversation bot tools to engage your students. Easily copy and revise lessons and exercises to make them fun and relevant for your students. You can also keep your courses private or make them public to share with other teachers around the world.

This exciting new feature called DISCUSS is designed to allow two to four students to speak to each other using a prompt that their teacher assigns to them. The discussion can be completed inside or outside of the classroom and is intended to encourage student to student practice with the language. For more information on FAQs, click here.

This feature allows students to participate in fun games that help them enhance their language skills while in the classroom. These games have been specifically designed to help students sharpen the skills and knowledge they have acquired in a particular section or topic. By playing the games, students can compete with each other to win and receive a Nuala medal, reinforcing their understanding of the subject matter.
