What if you could translate your voice in real time to help students?
Classroom teachers and trainers often struggle to keep lessons clear and accessible, juggling note-taking, live explanations, and engaging students all at once. The IPEVO Wireless Mic Duo, paired with the Vurbo.ai software, solves this challenge with real-time transcription and AI-generated summaries.
Smart audio for inclusive classrooms
Capturing what teachers say accurately has long been a challenge. From noisy classrooms to echoing halls, voice projection is often compromised. Add to that the growing demand for inclusion and accessibility, especially in multilingual settings, and there’s a clear need for a smart, scalable solution.
With increasing numbers of EAL students in UK classrooms, there’s pressure on schools and colleges to translate teaching content rapidly and affordably. >>>
What is most impressive about these new IPEVO AI tools is that both devices, using Vurbo.ai software, can display floating subtitles on screen, transcribe content instantly.

Perfect for supporting EAL students
Using Vurbo.ai, the software translates 100+ languages; this fabulous kit includes a USB-C receiver and two lightweight lavalier microphones.
I am already using the Wireless Mic Duo when speaking publicly with teachers at all of my professional development sessions across the UK. I also make use of the AI to summarise conversations, making access to learning more immediate and inclusive. It’s perfect for a multilingual audience, and it has strong potential for teachers working with students with English as additional language.
While human interpreters are ideal, they’re not always practical or budget-friendly. This is where AI-driven voice tech provides a viable, long-term support strategy.
Each wearable microphone has a 1.5-metre voice pickup range, delivering low-latency, high-quality audio, whether speaking from the front of a hall or at the back of a classroom. For those on the move, the Vocal Wearable alternative uses a magnetic clip-on mic with a 32-hours of usage time with the charging case, making it ideal for mobile or live coaching contexts.
Beyond translation, Vurbo.ai also produces real-time summaries, capturing key ideas from teacher input; a significant benefit for students with additional learning needs or for supporting absent learners catching up with missed work.
Plug in, clip on, and teach
Teachers can integrate the Wireless Mic Duo with any USB-C device—laptops, tablets or IWB displays—with plug-and-play ease. The AI software requires no complex training. Simply speak, and the system transcribes and translates your words in real-time.
For classroom use, one mic can be worn by the teacher, while the second is passed around for student responses or peer work, making classroom dialogue more inclusive and audible. In larger school or college events—assemblies, CPD sessions, or parent evenings, the system allows content to be captured and captioned without fuss.
There is also a ‘Cloud Translation‘ feature which allows participants to scan a QR code to access real time translations on their mobile device.
The Vocal Wearable is ideal for classroom teaching, assemblies, CPD walkthroughs, coaching. Clip it on to record lessons; create CPD notes, or support SEND students with bespoke lesson commentary.
