Polyglot - English Listening 3.3

This application is developed to facilitate English speech comprehension skills.

The texts provided contain words and expressions that may pose a challenge for learners of American English.

In addition to deciphering the meanings, users will delve into the historical origins of these linguistic elements.

All textual content is professionally narrated, ensuring quality pronunciation.

While listening to the speaker, users will have access to both the English text and its translation displayed concurrently.

After mastering the material, users will be assessed through various tests.

• One type of test available is the English speech perception test, where users verify sentences spoken by the narrator against the written English text.

Users can personalize their training schedule as per their preference, with the option for concurrent training on up to three texts.

Access to new texts is unlocked upon successfully completing the assessment. Retaking tests may only improve previous results; scores do not decrease in case of a lower performance compared to previous attempts.

Application Features:

• English speech reception tests
• English speech understanding tests
• Customizable training schedules
• All narration performed by professional speakers
• Simultaneous display of English text and translations for enhanced understanding
