Before you start
- A microphone and speakers or headphones. Headphones stop Galileo hearing itself.
- A quiet place gives the most accurate results.
- Plan needed: the 7-day free trial or a subscription.
Steps
- Open the voice tutor.
- From the dashboard: choose Voice Tutor under the prompt box.
- From a Galileo session: choose the Galileo head button (“Open voice tutor”) next to the message box.
- Choose Start voice tutor. Allow the microphone when your browser asks. The panel shows “Ready when you are”.
- Talk. Ask a question out loud, such as “Can you explain how supply and demand set a price?” Galileo answers out loud and the transcript updates live.
- Pause your mic with Stop listening, and turn it back on with Start listening.
- Finish. Choose Close voice tutor. You’ll see “Saving transcript…” and the conversation is added to the session.
Tips
- Explain it back. Say “Let me explain it and you tell me what I got wrong.” It’s one of the best ways to learn.
- Ask for a spoken quiz before an oral exam or presentation.
- Keep answers short by saying “Answer in two sentences”.
If something goes wrong
- “Could not start voice tutor. Please check microphone permissions and try again.” Click the lock or microphone icon in your address bar, allow the microphone for duetoday.ai, and reload.
- Galileo keeps interrupting itself. It’s hearing its own voice. Use headphones or lower the volume.
- “Voice tutor error”. Close the voice tutor and open it again. If it keeps happening, try Chrome or Edge.
