Background

Have you ever had an earworm? Catchy music and lyrics that you just can't get out of your head? Well, utilising the power of music, the Earworms Musical Brain Trainer puts the words of a foreign language into your head!

Just sit back and relax and, with minimum concentration, listeners will find that picking up new vocabulary and phrases is easier than ever before.

Why is it so effective?

In recent years there have been a lot of advances in language learning techniques, supported by the findings of neurological science and linguistic pedagogy. Earworms MBT bundles a lot of these findings into a powerful edutainment language learning system, unique in its teaching power.

Listening to the melodious tracks puts users into a relaxed state of alertness, ideal for learning. The sound patterns combined with rhythmic repetitions from a mesmeric male voice who speaks the English and a female native speaker for the target language, 'worm' their way into the auditory cortex -- the area of the brain from which words can be easily imagined and recalled. In this way, essential words and phrases will literally be ringing in the ears, making the acquisition of a new language much more fun and effective.

This effect is reinforced with a phrase-book that contains all the words and phrases spoken, plus the phonetic sounds of the word.

Just sit back and relax and, with minimum concentration, listeners will find that picking up new vocabulary and phrases is easier than ever before.

Memory Hooks

Visualising and associating words with other images is another technique which reinforces the memory. Both the audio and phrase-books contain a number of these 'memory hooks'. For example if you want to memorise the Greek term 'Excuse me!', phonetically written 'messee ohriteh', imagine saying 'Excuse me, I've got a messy oil heater' and you will easily remember it.

A regulated qualification is delivered by a learning institution which is regulated by a government body. In England, the government body which regulates courses is Ofqual. Ofqual regulated qualifications sit on the Regulated Qualifications Framework (RQF), which can help students understand how different qualifications in different fields compare to each other. The framework also helps students to understand what qualifications they need to progress towards a higher learning goal, such as a university degree or equivalent higher education award.

An endorsed course is a skills based course which has been checked over and approved by an independent awarding body. Endorsed courses are not regulated so do not result in a qualification - however, the student can usually purchase a certificate showing the awarding body's logo if they wish. Certain awarding bodies - such as Quality Licence Scheme and TQUK - have developed endorsement schemes as a way to help students select the best skills based courses for them.
