Its high quality context will help other areas of your students.
Before speak, a student has to listen what the famous say.
So I can say it is good for listening, too.

First, you listen and after 3 seconds you repeat what you heard.
The computer will tell you how you speak.
If you speak correctly, the computer shows you OK signs.
I think it is a very good website.
You can use it in many ways for your students.
You can use it in classroom or for homework.

1)Learner fit :
But the program can't provide a means of identifying the oral features with which learners need help. Just indicate what is wrong and correct.
2)Explicit teaching :
The activities can't help the learners focus on particular sounds including how they are made and how they contrast with other sounds. The program comes with materials to help preteach and develop follow up activities. It doesn't care of minimum things.
3)Interaction with the computer :
The activities provide opportunities for interaction between the learner and the computer to practice frames in contexts. These interactions allow learners to speak and record their own voice. And the language of the interactions provide interesting, useful material for learners to use in other activities.4)Evaluation and visual feedback :
The activities provide accurate evaluation and feedback to learners about the correctness of their responses. The program provide visual feedback that teachers and learners can understand. So it can offer almost accurate evaluation and feedback to learners about the correctness of their responses. But its feedback cannot pin-point where errors are appeared.
6)Strategy development :
The activities guide learners in developing strategies that will help them find and use technology for oral language outside of the class. They can learn how to shadowing and keep using this web site for their oral language outside of the class.
How to use?
Refer to above. I think it is a best web site for developing speaking ability. Their contents are very high-quality and reliable. But not that difficult to repeat it. So If you want to improve your students' speaking ability, get your class with it. It will be great to study speaking by using it in class. Of course you can give them assignment by it. But if you are good at giving feedback of speaking, I recommend you to use it in class. It will be great to practice speaking together. Let them speak right now!
