# Essay-Style Writing Assessments

In addition to speaking, Speechace can also be used for essay-style writing assessments. This dual capability makes it particularly useful for institutions that want a holistic understanding of a candidate’s communication ability.

For example, a business school might ask applicants to write a 250-word essay on the impact of remote work. Speechace analyzes the submission for grammar, vocabulary diversity, sentence structure, and overall coherence. Combined with the speaking test, admissions officers gain a clear picture of whether the applicant can both articulate ideas verbally and structure them in writing.

In K–12 contexts, teachers can assign short essays—such as describing a favorite book or writing an opinion on recycling—and receive automated feedback. This reduces grading workloads and ensures students receive consistent evaluation across classes.

By integrating both speaking and writing assessments, Speechace becomes a comprehensive tool for language testing. It supports learning outcomes by giving students clear, actionable feedback in two of the most critical skills: oral and written communication.
