Systems and methods for dynamically analyzing temporality in an individual's speech in order to selectively categorize the speech fluency of the individual and/or to selectively provide speech training based on the results of the dynamic analysis. Temporal variables in one or more speech samples are dynamically quantified. The temporal variables in combination with a dynamic process, which is derived from analyses of temporality in the speech of native speakers and language learners, are used to provide a fluency score that identifies a proficiency of the individual. In some implementations, temporal variables are measured instantaneously.
