Palteca is the perfect app for beginners to Spanish.
Palteca uses teaching methods that are rooted in science, making it one of the most effective ways to quickly learn and speak Spanish. Unlike the majority of the language learning apps on the market today that try to offer a tiny bit of every language, Palteca offers an in-depth experience in Spanish.
---------------------------
THE PALTECA METHOD
1. LEARN HOW TO LEARN A LANGUAGE: Palteca starts by getting you ready to learn how to learn a language. Many people try to learn languages through apps, but grow bored and frustrated when they realize the method isn’t working. Palteca gives you the roadmap to Spanish fluency
2. SPEAK FROM DAY 1: Practice your speaking with over 500 words, ranging over 5 levels of difficulty. Using the latest in AI technology, we will give you instant feedback on your pronunciation, and give you a score so you can measure your progress over time
3. TRAIN YOUR EARS: The sounds in Spanish are different from English and other languages. So we will teach you from day 1 how to distinguish between similar-sounding words, giving you the ability to better listen to native speakers
4. 100% CONTENT THAT IS SPOKEN BY NATIVE SPEAKERS: We use Comprehensible Input (CI), giving you content that is entirely in Spanish. Our curriculum is built to teach you the most important words first, and over the course of the following days/weeks, continue to reinforce these same words through repeated exposure. This makes remembering much easier
5. REVOLUTIONARY MEMORY METHOD FOR MEMORIZATION: No more memorizing long lists of similar-looking words. We use a method of combining Spaced Repetition (SRS) with using images to convey the meaning. This allows you to easily understand words/phrases without having to use a single word of English! This method gets you thinking in Spanish faster, and gets you speaking faster as you don’t need to translate in your head when you go to speak

Palteca is a cleverly conceived, poorly executed app. The creators seem to have scoured the Internet for short—four or five minute—videos that allow students to HEAR lessons entirely in Spanish. They also provide exercises to match Spanish words with mental associations and even AI pronunciation practice. All this is extremely helpful. The problem is that the app rarely updates. It seems to me that the developers expected to launch Palteca and use the revenue from the rather pricey app to support a full-time staff. When the cash didn’t flow in, the creative enthusiasm dried up, leaving the paying customers stranded. I sincerely had high hopes for Palteca. The good news is that the method used by the developers can be duplicated by searching YouTube for similar immersive material.
