This study investigates the integration of AI-powered tools, specifically the ELSA Speak application, in improving English pronunciation among students preparing for the IELTS exam. AI in language learning offers personalized feedback, a crucial aspect often limited in traditional classroom settings. Thirteen students participated in a 3-month study where they used ELSA to practice pronunciation outside of class. Both quantitative and qualitative methods were employed, analyzing students’ daily scores and pre- and post-course assessments, alongside teacher observations. Findings showed significant improvements in pronunciation, fluency, and intonation. The personalized feedback from ELSA enabled students to address specific pronunciation challenges, achieving marked progress. This study highlights the potential of AI applications to enhance language learning by providing effective, individualized support, suggesting a complementary role for AI in traditional teaching methods for optimized learning outcomes.This study investigates the integration of AI-powered tools, specifically the ELSA Speak application, in improving English pronunciation among students preparing for the IELTS exam.
