1. A computer-implemented method of scoring speech, comprising: receiving, using a processing system, a speech sample, wherein the speech sample is associated with a script; aligning, using the processing system, the speech sample with the script; extracting, using the processing system, an event recognition metric of the speech sample; detecting, using the processing system, locations of prosodic events in the speech sample based on the event recognition metric; comparing, using the processing system, the locations of the detected prosodic events with locations of model prosodic events, wherein the locations of model prosodic events identify expected locations of prosodic events of a fluent, native speaker speaking the script; calculating, using the processing system, a prosodic event metric based on the comparison; and scoring, using the processing system, the speech sample using a scoring model based upon the prosodic event metric.
