Description

Did you know that you may be wasting a huge portion of your time learning Spanish due to inefficient learning methods? Let me tell you how you can learn FASTER.

Its all about a new technique called Intelligent Cumulative Exposure. As much as wed like to think that we can improve our Spanish by watching movies or just being dumped in the right country, our brains are proven to best absorb new language concepts one-at-a-time, in small increments. And I dont mean just learning word lists one-at-a-time. I mean building your actual sentence-forming skills from the ground up.

Intelligent Cumulative Exposure (ICE) is the system of introducing concepts incrementally, at gradually increasing difficulty, in the context of REAL sentences, while repeating the tough concepts in the right intervals of time based on YOUR confidence levels. ICE is also a method that explains grammatical nuances in PLAIN ENGLISH rather than hoping you just figure them out through immersion.

There's no reason you should be hearing totally unfamiliar strings of jibberish fly in one ear and out the other. You should be building yourself up by scaffolding one concept at a time.

The problem is that there are currently NO apps on iTunes that apply the simple ICE method. Creating a comprehensive curriculum based on Intelligent Cumulative Exposure takes WORK, and most app developers are more concerned with flashy software than with actual learning sciences.

UNTIL NOW.

Brainscapes learning scientists from Columbia and Yale Universities have spent the past TWO YEARS developing a complete, scientifically optimized Spanish curriculum tailored specifically for the mobile environment. In the process, we have created the first web and iPhone app based around Intelligent Cumulative Exposure. Check out our 40-page white paper on our website, explaining the cognitive science behind why this works.

Customer Reviews

Very helpful (5 stars)
I wasn't going to spend $10 on this app, but I couldn't help myself after seeing all the great reviews. I'm learning at a very fast pace and the app is living up to its advertisements and reviews!

Love this app (5 stars)
I bought a knock off of Rosetta stone and I learned more is less than a week of using this app than the four months of using that program which cost forty bucks more. Well worth the money

Overpriced flash card program. (2 stars)
This is just a flash card program with pronunciation and not at all flexible. There are no grammar lessons or sections with explanations like I had hoped. It is a learning tool not a learning system. Fortunately I have some Spanish background from school or I'd have been really lost.

Also, there is a problem with the way the flash cards are shown to you. You give all flash cards in a given section a color rating (5 color system) ba
