Explain a payroll deduction out loud

Context

An employee asks about a deduction on their pay statement. You discuss the available information.

Your mission

Explain the deduction aloud and check that your explanation is understood.

Communication objectives

By the end of this simulation, the learner should be able to:

  • restate the employee's question
  • explain the deduction in simple terms
  • state an amount unambiguously

The AI adapts to every learner

In every simulation, the AI adjusts the conversation in real time to the person speaking.

  • It adapts to the learner's level: pace, vocabulary and complexity evolve along with them.
  • It takes the learner's first language into account where relevant, to better understand and adapt to them.
  • It gives constructive feedback based on the mistakes actually made, without judgment.
  • It answers the learner's questions during the simulation and rephrases as many times as needed.
