Language Coach: My Private Tutor/Great iPhone App

Another round of applause for Jourist (www.iphoneapp.jourist.info), a true innovator in the world of applications for mobile devices like the iPhone. The company's latest app, which debuted just a few days ago, is Language Coach (http://itunes.apple.com/us/app/language-coach/id373807647?mt=8).


This app uses illustrated, talking phrases to help people improve their language skills. With 23 languages from which to choose, Language Coach is perfect for someone who wants to customize a program that makes learning popular words or phrases easy. After all, mastering a foreign language can be quite challenging, even intimidating. Language Coach changes all of that for the better: the app is so intuitive and fun - I just bought it, and have encouraged friends to do the same - that Language Coach could very well transform (for the better) the way students, teachers and travelers approach mastering a foreign language.

Here's the bottom line: I buy a lot of apps for my iPhone; some are excellent, others decent and even more are just plain bad. Language Coach is an excellent app: colorful, clear, easy to use, intelligently priced and fun. Yes, fun! This app makes learning a joy, not a chore. I give it my highest rating. Thank you, Jourist.
