If the microphone is unavailable, practise with the answer timer instead.

Understanding your results

The tool uses your microphone to count quiet stretches of at least two seconds. Background noise, microphone distance and quiet speech can affect the count. Use it to notice your pauses, not to eliminate them: taking a moment to think is normal. It does not assess your answer or your confidence. No audio is recorded or uploaded.

Your inputs stay on this page. Refreshing clears the exercise. No account is needed.
