Voice Recognition Technology

This technology is integrated into the Pronunciation module of the software. Using the built in microphone on your computer, you will be able to repeat words after you hear them spoken by a native speaker through your computer speakers. The software will analyze your pronunciation and compare a waveform representation of the native speaker’s pronunciation with a waveform of your pronunciation. An accuracy scale on the screen with display your voice match to the native speaker on a scale of “Bad, “Acceptable”, and “Good”.

Talking Dictionary

This feature allows you to look up the meaning of words using the target language you are learning and your native language. A definition of the word or phrase will display on the screen and you may roll over the word or phrase with your mouse to hear the pronunciation in the target language by a native speaker. The dictionary allows you to create a personal custom dictionary of Essential Words, Common Words and Less Common Words. The software will automatically export the dictionary to a text document that can be saved on your computer and printed. The Talking Dictionary feature is accessible directly, and also within the Grammar, Vocabulary and Story Modules.

Auto Learn

This advanced feature give you the option of setting progressive performance thresholds and then the software will automatically decide when you have mastered the material for a set of lessons and levels. Beginning with the basics, you will move up through the levels automatically based on your performance. AutoLearn will automatically decide if and when you need to review. This feature gives you your own personal language tutor!

Lesson Structure:

Grammar Exercises – Reading, Writing, Comprehension

The goal of these exercises is to build your knowledge of how the words fit together to make sense. Some of the exercises are translations; others are designed to teach you to think in the target language by asking you to change a phrase in a specific way. This feature requires you type responses within the exercises, providing a practical and effective form of writing instruction.

Vocabulary Exercises – Essential Words, Common Words, Less Common Words

In these lessons, you will be shown a word or expression. If you know the translation, you will type it in using the keyboard. The vocabulary exercises are presented in three groups; Essential Words, of which you learn hundreds of words needed for basic day-to-day conversation. Common Words, which adds an additional 1000 words to enable you to converse with a greater degree of flexibility. Less Common words presents over 1000 words that will help you read through literature.

Stories – Spoken by native speakers, Translated, Vocabulary Definitions

The Stories section will help you learn how to use vocabulary and grammar in context. You will be shown a story with words missing throughout. The words that are missing are shown in a list. Its your job to drag the words to the proper place in the story. If there are any words you don’t understand, simply double click on the word and the dictionary will appear, allowing you to access the meaning of the word. The module also allows you to hear the story as spoken by a native speaker and see the story translated in your native language.

Progress – Short Term, Long Term, Passive & Active Retention

The software provides you with both an immediate and long-term progress tracking system. As you work within lessons, you will see a display of the percentage of the lesson you are completing without errors. There is also a graphical display indicating the rise and fall of your performance as the lesson progresses. When your score reaches a specific threshold (that you set using the AutoLearn feature) you will automatically move up to the next level. Long-term progress is accessed by clicking on the Monitor Progress button on the main screen. You will see a graphical representation indicating your scores for all lessons at each level. The system will also provide you with an approximate indication of your successful retention of vocabulary. It will differentiate between your retained Passive Vocabulary (words you understand but cannot fluently converse with) and retained Active Vocabulary (words you can understand and also use in conversation).

Language Learning Mode Variations:

The key to learning a language is the frequency of your exposure and use of vocabulary and grammar. The average person must be exposed to a word or phrase 100s of times before integrating it into fluent conversation. The two major thresholds of gaining language fluency is the learner’s ability to:

Learn a base vocabulary of approximately 2000 words for day-to-day use
Learn the rules of grammar

The MLS Easy Immersion system is designed to master these challenges by providing four independent learning modules:

Vocabulary Lessons
Grammar Exercises
Interactive Stories
Pronunciation Practice

The way we most successfully learn a new language varies from individual to individual. The MLS Easy Immersion systems provides three specific modes to progress through the lessons:

Browse Mode: Allows the user to survey the lessons without being required to provide answers and complete exercises. The dictionary is functional in this mode and allows the user to access the meanings of words.
AutoWord Mode: During exercises in the lessons, the user is required to type responses using the keyboard. In the AutoWord Mode, simply type the first letter of what you believe is the correct word or phrase and the system will auto complete the entire word. In the case of a phrase or sentence, you must type the first letter of each subsequent word.
Normal Mode: There is no auto fill feature. The user must type in the correct spelling of the word or words within a phrase or sentence.

Suggested Settings

For new users who are not familiar with the course contents, the most suitable setting is Browse. For all users in general, the Normal Mode is most suitable for Vocabulary lessons and the AutoWord Mode is most suitable for Grammar exercises.
