cc-esol

Learn English seamlessly while using Claude Code with the cc-esol plugin, a passive English coaching tool designed specifically for English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) learners. This innovative plugin captures and rewrites your English prompts—whether typed or dictated—into a local learning log.

Key Features

• Passive Learning: Continue to engage with Claude Code as usual. The plugin silently monitors your prompts and provides corrections, helping you learn without interrupting your workflow.
• Personalized Learning Log: The corrected prompts along with explanations are stored in a log file located at ~/.claude/english-learning/learning.md, allowing for easy review of your progress and learning patterns.
• Tailored Language Feedback: Each time you write in English, cc-esol generates a native version of your input, highlighting areas for improvement and offering reasons for corrections. The feedback is displayed in an easy-to-navigate pane, ensuring you can focus on learning effectively.

How to Use

1. Activate the plugin by clicking on 💡 esol under the prompt, navigating to Settings, turning coaching On, and selecting your native language.
2. Every English prompt you submit is processed and logged for review, while prompts in your native language remain untouched.

Dictation Feature

The plugin supports voice dictation directly within Claude Code. Use the /voice command to dictate your prompts; the plugin will correct the English from the transcript, ensuring the focus remains on language learning.

Privacy and Data Management

The learning log is stored locally with no data sent externally, ensuring complete privacy while using the plugin. Users have the option to relocate the log file for better organization.

Multilingual Support

cc-esol offers support for twenty different languages, allowing it to cater to a wide range of ESOL learners. Customize the language settings to provide specialized feedback based on your native language's interference patterns.

Troubleshooting

In case of issues, users can check their settings to ensure coaching is active, as well as other parameters to resolve problems related to logging or dictation.
