Good, but improvements are requiredI am a professor spending a period abroad for researching.
I tried the product for almost two months before to buy. The support of Pronunciation Pattern is a very helpful and attentive. During the trial period, I had opportunity to told them my opinion. The software is good, but requires improvements, for example:
a) the learning curve is a little bit acentuated in the beginning and if someone don't insist, the things may not work. In my case, after two weeks I was able to take advantage of its funcionalities;
b)the interface requires adtional attention; in my opinion;
c)in order to reduce that curve, a better explanation about the method adopted could be provided, maybe a user manual or a methodology with steps to be followed (To be honest, there is a attempt in this sense there);
There is no exactly anything new in the approach, nothing you can't find in advanced ESL books. The merit of the software is gather several resources in one place easily accessible.
Anyway, as every self-study material, it will require discipline and persistence so that you can reach results. Every ability you are able to study daily, during some months, certainly will be improved.
