Our Teacher Software combines audio lessons with a virtual black board outlining the material being discussed. Lessons are concluded with a Quiz reviewing the new material covered to ensure students retain critical material. Despite the step by step approach, our goal of combining rich media sources for each course is to make students independent and facilitate their advancement at whatever pace is most comfortable.
