“Forvo is a website which claims to be ‘the largest pronunciation dictionary in the world’. It
provides not only a large bank of pronunciations from native speakers all around the globe, but
also the possibility of asking for the pronunciation of a given word so native speakers can
pronounce it for you. At the same time, you can also provide pronunciations of words from
your native language which have been asked from people all over the world. Every
pronunciation for a given world comes with specific labels, such as speaker gender or country
of origin, which can help you understand or master specific accents, for example.
It could be really interesting for a teacher interested in EMI methodology, since it could help
improve his/her pronunciation and intelligibility, which is a key feature in clear instruction.”

“Sometimes, especially native or very proficient English speakers use the passive voice
excessively in their writings, particulary in an academic context or environment. Aztekera
identifies how many passive voice verbs you have used in a text so you can check if you’d
prefer to adapt the text to active voice choices.”
