The live tutor must wait through a learner's pause without losing the moment for feedback.
Spanish learners need room to think, while the tutor still needs enough evidence to correct what they actually said.
Who you’d be doing this for
“I paused to find the word, and it answered over me before I could finish the sentence.”

What is at stake
Spanish learners are being interrupted during live answers and some leave before the lesson ends. You must weigh faster tutor feedback against giving learners enough space to speak.
Why it isn’t already fixed
Every obvious fix costs something else. That’s the part you’d have to decide.
- learner thinking time vs responsive tutor turns
- interruption prevention vs correction coverage
- staged release speed vs verified session evidence
- model behavior vs routing control
Why Speak
Live Tutor Lessons put real-time speaking practice at the center of the app's English and Spanish experience.

This is the setup. The work is inside.
Running it puts you in the room: the full situation and its constraints, stakeholders who push back in their own words, and the decisions that are yours to make. What you produce becomes a Day One Plan — work you can show someone instead of describing.
