About

Imagine you put together a stack of flashcards. How would they proceed? Probably by working your way through the stack, over multiple sessions if necessary, to see which cards you know and which you don't know. You'd probably set aside the ones you got right so you could concentrate on the ones you got wrong. You'd probably take a little more time to answer the ones you’re not sure about. And you'd probably re-review ones from earlier, just to be sure you still remember them. That sums up Flashcard Tutor, which is focused on making the review sessions as productive as possible. This means different thing to different people: you may want to focus on the cards where they’re weakest. At other times you may want to review cards in the exact same order as they were added. Or, you may be comfortable with the usual side 1 question/side 2 answer, but it may be helpful to study these in reverse, where you review side 2 as the question, and side 1 as the answer. Flashcard Tutor accommodates all these options, so you can select the approach that works best for YOU.
