We are proud to present a game in which one can enhance the learning experience of the Spanish language on the iPad.
This app does not 'bait and switch'. That is, there are no hidden or extra costs for more content. The download is the full app with your purchase, including free updates as they are produced.
This app is intended for those of any age who wish to brush up on previous exposure to the learning of Spanish, or to augment current study of the language, using English as the base language.
We recognize that there are 21 countries where Spanish is spoken, each one with its own nuances and special phrases. Therefore, we present the most universally used terms that can be used and understood in most countries where Spanish is spoken. Keeping with the most popular and widely used forms of the language, we have eliminated the Vosotros form in the verb conjugations.
This learning tool is not intended to replace the classroom experience, but to enhance any approach to learning Spanish, and for refreshing one's memory of what has previously been studied or is currently being studied.
Educators: depending on access to an iPad or iPads, this app can be used as part of your lesson plans or assigned as extra credit. You will find that it may also be a useful tool for Spanish speakers wishing to study English.
Tío Tucán will be the guide for a fun way to practice finding the correct translations of over 100 of some of the most frequently used regular and irregular verbs with conjugations in the Present Tense, Preterite (past) Tense and Past Perfect Tense, plus a section for Infinitives, and another section that includes Reflexives, Commands and the verb Gustar. There is also a list of the verbs used and their conjugations included in our in-app "Library". We also include over five hundred vocabulary words within nine categories, along with common phrases, which can also be found in our in-app "Library".
We sincerely hope that students enjoy this experience on the journey to acquiring this beautiful language. ¡Buena Suerte!, Amigos.
