An electronic audio file is received that comprises spontaneous speech responsive to a prompt in a non-native language of a speaker. Thereafter, the electronic audio file is parsed into a plurality of spoken words. The spoken words are then normalized to remove stop words and disfluencies. At least one trained content scoring model is then used to determine an absence of pre-defined key points associated with the prompt in the normalized spoken words. A list of the determined absent key points can be generated. This list can then be displayed/caused to be displayed in a graphical user interface along with feedback to improve content completeness. Related apparatus, systems, techniques and articles are also described.
