WordEngine

WordEngine is for schools and teachers seeking a proven, professional system for increasing students’ comprehension of high-frequency vocabulary. WordEngine is highly regarded among teachers and students as a fun, simple and effective way to quickly improve English ability. WordEngine is the original online vocabulary supplement and it is still by far the most advanced and easy to use.
 WordEngine automatically adjusts to the specific lexical needs of each student based on their actual vocabulary composition. WordEngine begins with the patented V-Check, a lexical test that identifies the specific words each student already knows, and the specific high-frequency words they do not know. 


V-Check generates a report with correlated scores for a wide range of standard proficiency tests including: TOEFL, TOEIC, IELTS, CEFR, EIKEN, Japanese university hensachi, and more. V-Check allows WordEngine to tailor a personal sequence of new words for each student such that the most frequently occurring words they do not know are taught to them first. WordEngine scientifically controls the difficulty of words coming into each student's study sequence. 


Control over the known to unknown ratio allows WordEngine to maintain a comfortable Flow State in a channel that is above boredom and below anxiety. Independent research has shown that WordEngine significantly increases average TOEIC and TOEFL test scores faster and higher than other self-study methods. This is primarily because WordEngine increases word recognition speed and word recognition speed is the most essential and fundamental determinant of language ability.

With WordEngine, average students will learn and retain 400 new words per month. To put that number into perspective, 400 words is more than the average L2 EFL student acquires during three years of formal EFL education. The top 5% most highly motivated learners will learn and retain up to 7,000 new words per semester; effectively tripling or quadrupling their current vocabulary sizes. WordEngine systematically teaches all aspects of word comprehension including; aural, visual, and contextual comprehension; and of course WordEngine employs spaced repetition to ensure long-term memory retention. There are 20 subject courses to choose from including the main course for General English, and 19 special-purpose courses such as; Daily Conversation, Presentations, Hospitality, TOEIC, TOEFL, CEFR, EIKEN, SAT, GRE, etc.

Teachers set weekly study goals for their classes and receive weekly email progress reports that are perfect for fast and easy grading.
