What you're reviewing
We're building a Spanish-language phonics activity for a toddler learning app (ages 18 months–4 years). We generated 62 short test audio clips with a computer voice to see whether it's good enough — single sounds, syllables, whole words, and a few teaching phrases.
Why your expertise is needed
A computer voice can produce audio that's technically valid Spanish but still wrong for teaching a small child — wrong region's accent, robotic delivery, or a teaching approach that doesn't actually work. We need a real person's judgment, not just automated checks.
Choose your role
- Native Mexican Spanish speaker — focus on: does it sound natural, does it sound Mexican (not from another Spanish-speaking region), pronunciation, stress, prosody, whether the wording sounds like something an adult would say to a small child.
- Spanish literacy specialist — focus on: phonetic accuracy, syllable segmentation, grapheme-sound alignment, whether a clip is instructionally useful, whether any clip could teach a misleading unit, whether it's suitable for an early-literacy pilot.
Either role may comment on anything — the split just tells us where your judgment matters most.
How to play and rate clips
- Tap the round ▶ button to play a clip. Replay as many times as you like.
- Read the text/target shown for context.
- Pick one rating (see below for what each means).
- Tap any failure tags that apply, and add a note if you want.
What each rating means
- Acceptable for pilot — sounds right, usable in an early, non-final test version.
- Prompt change needed — right idea, wrong wording given to the computer voice.
- Post-processing needed — audio is basically right, just needs technical cleanup.
- Human recording required — a computer voice shouldn't attempt this; needs a real person.
- Do not use this clip type — this whole approach is wrong, not a single-clip fix.
- Unresolved — you're unsure and want a second opinion.
There is no "approved for production" option — even the best rating only clears a clip for an early pilot, never a finished product.
How long this takes
Most reviewers take roughly 30–60 minutes for all 62 clips. Many are just a few seconds long. No need to rush.
