- WHY SCHOOLING PAPA? -

- HOW IT WORKS -
Firstly, you need flashcards. The app provides a few basic decks to get you started. But you should create your very own personalized decks and cards.
The process of creating your own flashcard is very important -- from deciding on what to learn, to choosing a picture, to typing out the word -- because it helps to form deeper connections. As scientific research has shown, a personal connection will retain memory by 2x!
If you have existing sets of flashcard, go ahead and digitize them.
When you are ready to learn a deck of cards, there are 3 modes:
1. LISTEN: Hear once when you see the picture (the meaning), then hear again for the word (the spelling)
2. PRACTICE: Hear when you see the picture, then pronounce when you see the word
3. TEST: Pronounce when you see the word/picture
The app is able to listen using speech recognition. When the pronunciation is correct, it will move on to the next card. That is to say, Schooling Papa will make sure your child pronounce it correctly!
The TEST mode is especially critical. Everyone dislike tests. Yet the best way to remember is to self-test, forcing yourself to recall how to pronounce a word. Our TEST is not a measure of how good you are. Instead,
"Testing is studying, of a different and powerful kind."
