Nora Wiltse on 10 Apr 12This app has lessons and tutorials for learning Spanish. It's $14.99 but that includes many different lessons you can use, and within each lesson there are many different activities. I like that it takes one simple conversation in a lesson, (for example two people talking at a train station,) and gives so many opportunities to learn. The conversation is spoken by native speakers and allows you to just listen to the conversation, listen and see the words, then listen and practice speaking parts, etc. etc. There are quizzes on each lesson and I found myself really working hard to perfect written skills in the quiz (spelling and punctuation) and also working to perfect my sound by trying to say each phrase like the native speaker. I like how it breaks the lessons down, and the iPad format really adds to the experience, rather than just transferring a computer program to a different format. Our middle grade students enjoy this app. It is used by our Spanish teachers with grades 3rd - 7th. Our native speakers can focus on the written language quizzes while novices can do the entire lesson. One of the best we have found for Spanish instruction.
