How to seamlessly integrate Loora into your current offering?

Welcome to Loora! This guide will help you integrate Loora into your language program as a powerful add-on to your existing curriculum. Loora provides students with unlimited speaking practice outside the classroom, reinforcing what they learn in your lessons while building fluency, vocabulary, grammar, and confidence.

1. How to motivate your students to use Loora

Student motivation is key to maximizing the value of Loora. Here are proven strategies to encourage regular engagement:

Set clear expectations from day 1

Make Loora an integral part of your course structure, not an optional extra. When students understand that Loora practice is a core component of their learning journey, they're more likely to engage consistently.

• Introduce Loora during orientation or the first class session
• Explain how speaking practice outside class accelerates progress
• Set minimum weekly practice goals (e.g., 3-5 conversations per week)
• Include Loora usage as part of homework assignments

Create accountability through tracking

Students are more motivated when they know their practice is being monitored and acknowledged.

• Review students' Loora activity reports weekly
• Celebrate consistent users during class
• Discuss progress and challenges students face with the app
• Consider incorporating Loora participation into overall course grades (10-15% weighting works well)

Make it relevant to their goals

Connect Loora practice directly to what students care about achieving.

• Help students set personalized topics aligned with their interests or professional needs
• Share success stories of previous students who improved through consistent practice
• Highlight how speaking confidence leads to better performance in exams, interviews, and real-world situations
• Encourage students to practice conversations they'll actually need in their lives

Foster a practice community

Build a culture where practicing English outside class is normalized and celebrated.

• Create a class leaderboard for most practice time (focus on effort, not perfection)
• Dedicate 5 minutes at the start or end of class for students to share their Loora experiences
• Organize friendly competitions or challenges (e.g., who can practice 5 days in a row)
• Use Loora conversation topics as warm-up discussions in class

Address common barriers

Proactively help students overcome obstacles that might prevent regular practice.

• Provide troubleshooting support for technical issues

• Reassure nervous students that Loora is a judgment-free practice space

• Suggest practicing during commute time, lunch breaks, or before bed

• Remind students that even 10-15 minutes daily is more effective than one long session weekly

2. How to make the most of Loora

To maximize the impact of Loora as part of your language program, follow these best practices:

Integrate Loora with your curriculum

The most effective use of Loora happens when it complements and extends your classroom teaching.

Before teaching a new unit: Assign Loora conversations on the upcoming topic as pre-work. This activates students' existing knowledge and identifies vocabulary gaps you can address in class.

During the unit: Encourage students to practice specific conversation scenarios or role-plays you've covered in class. This reinforces the structures and vocabulary they're learning.

After completing a unit: Have students use Loora to apply what they've learned in free conversation. This consolidates their knowledge and builds automaticity.

Teach students effective practice strategies

Help students get the most from their Loora sessions by teaching them how to practice deliberately.

Encourage students to:

• Review conversation feedback immediately after each session
• Keep a vocabulary notebook of new words and phrases encountered
• Repeat conversations on the same topic to practice corrections
• Challenge themselves with increasingly complex topics as they improve
• Practice speaking at a natural pace rather than overthinking every word

Create blended learning experiences

Design activities that bridge online practice with in-class learning.

Example activities:

• Students practice a Loora conversation, then perform a similar dialogue with a partner in class
• Use Loora's vocabulary suggestions as the basis for class vocabulary games
• Have students present about topics they've practiced with Loora
• Organize peer feedback sessions where students discuss common mistakes from their Loora practice

How Loora supports language development

Loora is designed to reinforce and expand upon the learning that happens in your classroom. Here's how it supports different aspects of language development:

Vocabulary reinforcement and expansion

Loora helps students move vocabulary from passive recognition to active use through contextual practice.

How it works:

• Students encounter vocabulary naturally in conversations, reinforcing words learned in class
• The AI introduces topic-relevant vocabulary organically, expanding students' lexical range
• Immediate feedback helps students notice and correct word choice errors
• Repeated exposure in different contexts deepens understanding and retention

The result: vocabulary that sticks because it's been practiced in meaningful communication, not just memorized from lists.

Grammar consolidation through practice

Loora transforms explicit grammar knowledge from your lessons into implicit, automatic usage.

How it works:

• Students apply grammar structures learned in class in real-time conversation
• Immediate corrections help students notice when they make grammatical errors
• Repeated practice with correction cycles builds accurate production habits
• Natural conversation flow encourages proper grammar without overthinking

This bridges the gap between knowing a grammar rule and using it fluently in conversation — the critical step many students struggle with.

Fluency development

Fluency, the ability to speak smoothly and naturally, requires extensive practice that classroom time alone cannot provide. Loora fills this gap.

How it works:

• Unlimited practice time allows students to speak far more than possible in group classes
• Conversational AI creates a low-pressure environment where students can focus on fluency over perfection
• Regular practice builds speaking stamina and reduces hesitation
• Natural conversation flow mimics real-world interactions better than drilling exercises

Students who practice 3-5 times weekly typically show noticeable fluency improvements within 4-6 weeks.

Building speaking confidence

Perhaps Loora's most important contribution is helping students overcome the anxiety that prevents them from speaking.

How it works:

• Private practice removes the fear of judgment from classmates
• Students can make mistakes and try again without embarrassment
• Success in Loora conversations translates to greater willingness to speak in class
• Gradual exposure to conversation builds comfort with spontaneous speech

Many teachers report that students who use Loora regularly become significantly more participative in class discussions.

The spaced repetition advantage

Loora enables the scientifically proven learning method of spaced repetition—practicing smaller amounts more frequently rather than cramming.

When students practice with Loora multiple times per week between your lessons, they:

• Retain vocabulary and grammar structures better than from class alone
• Develop automaticity in language production faster
• Maintain engagement with English between lessons
• Progress more rapidly overall

This continuous exposure creates a powerful learning environment where your classroom instruction is reinforced and extended every single day.
