Works pretty damn well. This extension definitely makes my learning more accessible and improves my focus.

Edit: This issue might only happen in the first question of a series. It worked fine as soon as I encountered a second listening challenge. It worked excellently a couple weeks ago, at least I *thought*, but now I have found a really annoying bug in it. The "Word" and "Sentence - Normal" sliders are mixed up. That is to say, "Sentence - Normal" does NOTHING, and "Word" does BOTH of their jobs together. That means in listening challenges, I can't disable the words being echoed at me without disabling the ability to hear the sentences. I am rating this to get attention on the bug. I will fix it if the bug is removed.
