Description:

Talk to Me Spanish uses speech recognition technology to allow students to see voiceprints of native speakers and compare their own pronunciation. The speech is presented in normal Spanish converstion, and is not slowed down - this is so that when a native speaker is talking, you're able to keep up with the conversation. You'll find vocabulary building exercises, reading and writing drills, and several games for building skills. The only thing we wished for was to be able to get help with the translations, since there were words we hadn't seen before. Honestly, I couldn't recommend this title to those who are absolute beginners because of that one thing. However, for those who have taken some Spanish lessons, this title is wonderful!

Notes:

Installation was simple; the title ran without any technical or run-time errors.

Features:

Imitate native speakers and see your voiceprints, interact with the computer to simulate immersion learning, dictation exercises, matching, vocabulary building exercises and more.
