Currently development of the Artificial Intelligence technology is rapidly progressing in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. The government is trying to improve the education of Artificial Intelligence and cultivating human resources. However there are very few cases where A.I technology is actually used in public education classes. Therefore we designed a text repository by implementing A.I speech recognition to provide career counseling for elementary school students. In the meantime, there have been many difficulties in giving advance consultations required for students' career counseling.
