They were able to take the time to listen carefully to their own recordings and respond accordingly. \r\nIt is wonderful to have technology that is newer and sturdier, and students are taking note of and are grateful to be using something that will last. \r\nIn summary, thank you again for supporting me in funding these resources for our students who are learning and perfecting English.

With this technology, they can now engage in immersive listening activities, practice pronunciation with confidence, and focus on their work without distractions. The ability to hear clear, high-quality audio has made a noticeable difference in their comprehension and speaking skills. What excites my students the most is the opportunity to work independently at their own pace, whether they're practicing for a test or engaging with interactive language resources. One student, who was previously hesitant to speak in class, has found new confidence using language apps with the headphones—allowing her to refine her pronunciation before speaking aloud.
