Spanish Touch Trainer is the simplest and easiest to use Spanish sentence translation and tutorial game to help you become more proficient, fluent and professional in speaking Spanish.
The basic premise behind Spanish Touch Trainer is to engage the user with sentence constructions, verb conjugations, and vocabulary broadening all within one elegant interface. It helps train you to produce the correct Spanish word and use it in the correct order. You are not spoon-fed a thick set of grammar rules, but rather gently guided to arrive at the correct results by making mistakes, which is how we naturally learn.
Watch how you start as a beginner learner and advance quickly onto the intermediate and finally the proficient, fluent and professional expertise stage! Become a professional and proficient Hispanic or Latin speaker today with Spanish Touch Trainer!
Don't just take our word for it, see what our other users are saying -
"Tackles the complex subject of verb conjugations in the simplest, clearest way imaginable." --M. Schusterman
"Much more fun than slaving in front of text books." --Jennifer Allen, 148apps.com
"A fun and effective supplement to your Spanish studies. The focus of this niche app is verb conjugation, arguably the hardest part of learning Spanish for a native English speaker. It has a beautiful user interface and feels game-like, though it is a serious learning tool." --Karen Freeman, AppAdvice.com
Salient Features -
- All material created and verified by a native speaker, linguist or Spanish professor.
- Polishes both Spanish speaking and writing skills
- Verb conjugations are deconstructed within the context of real sentences. This is a new way to help you learn and it is unlike any other Spanish app out there!
- No boring flashcards! You become familiar with both the grammar and vocabulary through contextual associations.
- A moving cursor on the English sentence lets you easily see how the word ordering changes with the Spanish. This technique will help you master both general sentence construction and pronoun usage and placement, which will take your Spanish to the next level!
- Upon completion of each sentence, you can listen to a recording of the sentence from a native Spanish speaker.
- Reference material and tutorials including phrases, verb conjugations, words, associative nouns and adjective dictionaries.
- Exercises are either beginner or advanced sets. Beginner sentences contain only present tense verb forms and advanced covers everything else.
- Designed to force the Latin or Hispanic learner to choose the correct word within sentence contexts. We call these "conflict" choices where you must choose between ser/estar or por/para, for example. The most common conflicts for English learners of Spanish are all included!
Other Features
- A randomization engine ensures that your choices for each exercise change each time you play!
- Enabled with high-resolution graphics for Retinal displays.
