Ridiculously simple in format, the CD-Rom first asks you to register your name, then presents you with three options: "Learn", "Games" and "Record". First try the "Learn" function, where you can scroll through a number of basic (and some bizarre!) choices of vocabulary, which are each pronounced by a male and a female voice, presented as a picture and written as a word. Or, click the "dice" button, which will present you with a random order of items. Then move on to the "Games", which include "Find the Card", "Match the Pairs" and "Beat the Clock", all fairly self-explanatory exercises that can each be attempted at three difficulty levels. The tiger narrator will help, with a congratulatory "perfect!" or an empathetic "oops", depending on your score. But the real joy of this program is the "Record" function, which allows you to hear a word pronounced, then record your own attempt, before playing back both versions to compare your effort to that of a native speaker. Great fun and a fantastic learning tool. Once you have a few recordings you are happy with, play them one after the other in the "Cinema" to rapturous applause!
