GoSaySo — A Communication Batting Cage For Teens
Problem. Practice. Progress.

Most teens are
ill-prepared communicators.

GoSaySo is a communication batting cage: students practice on their own time, while mentors get clear analytics instead of more work.

Students practice life-skills between tutor sessions. Mentors get analysis of strengths and gaps, and can then build on that.

The communication gap explained
Most teens aren’t effective communicators...yet.
90% of high school students rated at an elementary speaking proficiency level. Researchers concluded these students were “not generally effective communicators” and explicitly called for a dedicated communication enhancement program.
The problem

Students get fewer real-world reps than ever.

Teens simply don’t get enough critical speaking practice. Meaningful conversation has quietly disappeared.

Speaking less, scrolling more
Tweets, emojis, and scrolling have eroded teenagers' ability to command communication. They are no longer confident with face-to-face communication that they’ll need to in interviews, classrooms, and real life.
Under-practiced, not under-capable
Most students just nod, they were never taught how to actively listen, organize a response, land a point, or hear how they actually sound. They haven’t had enough practice and actionable feedback.
The need is clear
Every student wants to improve. They know they’re capable of more—they just need the practice. Students understand that those who command their voice, command the room.
The solution

High-repetition, coached speaking practice.

Debate programs have shown that frequent, structured speaking reps with feedback can lift GPA by more than half a point and boost SAT scores by 50–60 points. GoSaySo brings that “debate effect” to any student.

A communication batting cage
Students respond to realistic interview, classroom, and everyday prompts in short, focused sessions that feel like reps, not tests.
Interviews Class participation Campus visits
Feedback they can actually use
Each response is analyzed for clarity, structure, and presence, then turned into feedback students can understand and improve on — just like a good coach or tutor would do.

Leverage for busy mentors
Students practice on their own time. Mentors get concise performance analysis, so their limited in-person time goes straight to the areas that need coaching.
No extra grading More progress per hour
The benefits

The value for tutors, schools, and families.

Students swing away at all kinds of conversational pitches, building confidence in their voice and command in the moment.

Tutors
More impact in the same hour.

Students arrive with GoSaySo reps done. You walk in with diagnostics, spend the full session coaching, and get credit for visible gains — without extra sessions or prep.

Schools
Structured practice without new workload.

Give students a safe place to practice interviews and presentations, while faculty get trends and examples for advising — with no new course or grading.

Parents
A life skill that compounds.

Your child learns to organize their thoughts, sound like themselves, and recover from stumbles — skills that matter in every class, interview, and job long after tests are forgotten.
