### 5/5 — Good news

*2021-03-02, version 5.2*

Fun. Engaging. Great for vocabulary development. 
Kids ask to play. And so they do.

### 5/5 — Delightful

*2021-02-24, version 5.2*

Have never seen such a good interactive program. Such a truly effective language-learning experience.  Such a funny surprise. Delightful for players and watchers.

### 5/5 — Preschooler perfect

*2021-02-22*

Recommended the app from a fellow parent. Preschooler (4) really enjoys it and she surprises us with the extent of her vocab. Great learning tool. Kid sees it more as a game than study.

### 5/5 — Level 1 and 2

*2021-02-22*

Should have started my kids here, even though they know some French already. It starts more simply getting the kids used to the immersion, which is an awesome concept but challenging.

### 5/5 — Perfetta

*2019-09-22*

Fatto molto bene, complimenti!

### 5/5 — Using this for my ESL class

*2017-03-21, version 3.0*

Fun and innovative product! Great way to learn a new language.

### 5/5 — Interact and Immerse

*2017-03-20, version 3.0*

The full version of this program makes good on the promise of the earlier, incomplete versions. THis is a revolutionary way to learn/teach a language. It will supplant all alternative language teaching programs. Bravo!

### 5/5 — Señora Marshall

*2016-07-18, version 2.1*

I am a middle school Spanish teacher and I have been watching my nine year old daughter (just finished 3rd grade) play with this app. She loves it and is so excited to be able to communicate with me. After just a few short hours of playing on the app, she and I managed to have a conversation for a solid half hour (completely in Spanish) about what she had learned and we were then able to branch out from there. I highly recommend this app because it isn't just memorizing and spitting back vocabulary. Kids will learn what they see and hear and experience in the app. There is plenty of practical repetition provided in a way that kids enjoy...which is how it should be. This takes the drudgery out of old school language learning and provides input that is comprehensible for kids to jump in, understand and use immediately. I am excited to use this with my classes in September. Stay tuned for my review of that, once I get it going!

### 5/5 — Awesome!

*2016-07-01*

Highly immersive learning-game!
Perfect to learn fast and with a lot of fun!

### 5/5 — students really like it

*2016-04-22, version 1.0*

When we do the immersion in class, the students don’t want to put the tablets down. I especially like the speaking immersion games. Even students that usually won’t say a word are speaking out.
