A language proficiency analyzer automatically evaluates a person's language proficiency by analyzing that person's oral communications with another person. The analyzer first enhances the quality of an audio recording of a conversation between the two people using a neural network that automatically detects loss features in the audio and adds those loss features back into the audio. The analyzer then performs a textual and audio analysis on the improved audio. Through textual analysis, the analyzer uses a multi-attention network to determine how focused one person is on the other and/or how pleased one person is with the other. Through audio analysis, the analyzer uses a neural network to determine how well one person pronounced words during the conversation.
