Learning Method

Associating concepts for learning

The most innovative point of the courses is the method, known as Dynamic Immersion (registered trademark). It is based on images, intuition, interactivity association and it is quite different from other softwares. During the lessons, images appear on the screen in groups, together with audio pronunciations by a native speaker and scripts. The software generates combined exercises with a missing element that can vary from script to sound and can assess if they are carried out correctly.

Online Monthly Subscription

As an alternative to CDs or DVDs it is possible to subscribe for three, six or twelve months to online courses direcly on the website of the publisher. The exercises are exactly the same.

Guarantee

The manufacturer, at time of writing, offers a 6 months guarantee of 100% of theCD/DVD course cost (excluding shipping).
