Learn to read, write and speak Japanese Hiragana & Katakana, Korean Hangul, Arabic and Chinese Mandarin in record time with Dr. Moku's bite-sized animated lessons. Everybody learns differently and visual learners often struggle with new languages. Mnemonics are memory tricks that help you remember and retrieve abstract concepts. Dr. Moku's visual and verbal mnemonics help you to learn auto-magically. You will forever remember the sound and meaning of each character without the pain of rote memorization. How will Dr. Moku work for you? • Mnemonics are a proven language-learning technique. • Learn how to write each character with animated stroke orders. • Sample words with audio to aid pronunciation. • Practice Modes: Reading, Listening, and Combo quiz modes. • Audio Charts: each alphabet has a handy reference chart. • Save favorite characters and phrases to a list and revise them easily with Autoplay. • Phrasebooks • Offline mode • No annoying third-party ads. Nice! Dr. Moku's teaching method is perfect for complete beginners. Learn the Japanese alphabets (Hiragana and Katakana) on your own and in record time. Master the Korean alphabet (Hangul) quickly and slickly with minimal effort. And we’ve just added Mandarin Chinese! --------------------------------- Don’t you hate when companies claim to make learning fun? There really is nothing "fun" about learning languages. There’s definitely satisfaction in impressing friends, passing exams, and using your language skills in the real world but the fun comes in the time you save by finding the right learning method. Dr. Moku strives to make learning languages painless and effective so you have more time to create your own fun. Studying sucks. Memorization stinks. Mnemonics work. The first Dr. Moku app was published way back in 2010, it was primitive and clunky but it helped tens of thousands of people to learn Hiragana and Katakana without the pain of rote memorization. This new app is the start of a whole new chapter. The vision is to gradually add new languages and subjects using the same mnemonic techniques. Download it now and start learning in seconds.
