We have amazing computers disguised as phones and it’s time for the teacher and students to feel smarter than their phones. You can use Siri or other voice assistant apps to practice and even learn a language.
If you have an iPhone, Siri can be your language practice partner. To ask Siri a question, you have to pronounce the English words correctly in order to get an answer, so you get a chance to work on your speaking skills. Through Siri’s answers, you’ll hear proper or standard pronunciation and learn the right ways to respond to certain questions.
You can ask Siri:
what’s the weather today?
How’s traffic now?
Set an alarm / Set a timer
Send an email to … / call …
You can also have some fun with Siri’s pre-loaded messages such as
When is the world going to end?
will you marry me?
can you teach English?
