Golden, CO (USA), September 2013 - Vocefy, Inc. has announced the launch of Infinite English, a mobile learning app that will challenge all current approaches to learning English. The app uses mobile smart devices and cloud processing to mimic a clever, animated personal tutor named -œVocey.- The friendly online tutor lets users pick interesting content from anywhere, practice reading out loud and gives immediate feedback with infinite patience, anywhere and anytime. And she works cheap.
Around 1.7 billion people worldwide study English as a second language. Through traditional avenues, students learn vocabulary and reading and writing, but because there are few opportunities to interact with native English speakers, they fail to develop conversational fluency.
This is where "Vocey" and Infinite English come in. "Vocey" is an always-available and infinitely patient tutor. She delivers feedback and assistance in very much the same way as a live native English tutor. The only difference is that she is always accessible and never tires or gets frustrated. She’s also infinitely accommodating and will work with whatever content is interesting to the student. "The technology behind 'Vocey' is very complex," said Founder and CEO Jim Behrens, "But we were determined to hide all the complexity and really mimic a native tutor and offer unlimited interesting content. 'Vocey' is all you see and hear."
Assistant Professor Julien McNulty from Chosun University in Korea participated in the testing in early 2013 and became a believer. "Infinite English is very powerful and convenient for my students. I just didn’t have sufficient resources and time to push students through the fluency barrier. Now I will be able to assign content, see results immediately, and better direct their English efforts all from their smart devices at their own individual speeds and needs."
Infinite English supports 64 languages and launched in August 2013 and is available in 130 countries from the Apple and Android App stores at a yearly fee of $9.99 for unlimited use.
