The disclosed techniques intend to accurately determine the change amount of the fundamental pitch frequency even if distortion is generated in the voice waveform. According to an aspect of the embodiments, a speech evaluation apparatus includes a memory, and a processor coupled to the memory and configured to generate a first input spectrum obtained by frequency transforming a first signal that is a signal of a first period, generate a second input spectrum obtained by frequency transforming a second signal that is the signal of a second period earlier than the first period, generate a processed spectrum obtained by transforming frequency of the second input spectrum based on a change ratio set in advance, calculate a correlation value between the first input spectrum and the processed spectrum, and determine a change amount of pitch frequency from the first signal to the second signal based on the change ratio and the correlation value.
