Interact with the pictorial guide as if it's a quiz. Guess the words - say them out loud if possible - and think of the voice you hear as being your friendly tutor either correcting or confirming your guess. "Testing yourself" is the best way to learn.

Listening Quiz / Speaking Quiz

The "Listening Quiz" is a great way to practice your audio comprehension skills as well as consolidate your knowledge of the vocabulary. To activate it click on "options" and then "Listening Quiz". When you hear a word, click on its picture. An award awaits those you guess all correctly without making any mistakes. When "Speaking Quiz" is launched, an image is highlighted. You have a second to say that word before, your tutor says the correct word. Speaking quiz forces you to be an active learner.

Reviewing

book Reviewing often occurs naturally when learning a language - you're exposed to vocabulary, expressions, and grammar in different contexts every-time you read, speak, or listen in that language. Nevertheless, you can save a word or expression for later review using the site by clicking on it and selecting "Save to Account". Although everyone learns differently, studies have indicated that the optimal intervals for review are the next day, a week after, and then 3 months later.
