The methodology of My Life in English has been created selecting the most successful ICT experiences in Primary education. This gamified experience provides an overcoming of small challenges and celebrates each activity solved, encouraging the students to keep doing new exercises.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
My Life in English covers nine thematic units. Each one of them contains a specific vocabulary flash card and 10 challenges to be solved successfully. This app tailors to each child’s learning pace, encouraging those with difficulties when learning the language, thanks to its positive and motivating interface.
Nine thematic units
Between 30 and 50 new words are learnt in each unit. They are set in a familiar and attractive environment for children, which contains topics of interest for them, such as camping, fashion and shopping, bathroom accessories, the human body, football, kitchen accessories, trips, the beach and technological devices.
Vocabulary guide of each thematic unit
Each unit contains a complete vocabulary guide which is then applied to the activities, in order to help us solve the tests effectively. By tapping each word, we will listen to its corresponding voice-over, which is very helpful to grasp the proper pronunciation.
Ten fun challenges on each unit
It is not necessary to follow the suggested order. The user can choose which challenge to start with, depending on their preference, except for the final trial. Only by overcoming the preceding challenges, will the user have access to this trial, which carries a final exam of all the vocabulary learnt.
You passed…with honours!
As the user passes the tests, each challenge has its own score, depending on the speed and right answers. The user has the option to face the challenge again to improve their score.
THE CHALLENGES OF MY LIFE IN ENGLISH
The test is explained at the start of each challenge in every unit. Once it has started, you have to solve the questions with a countdown. The faster you solve it, the better score you achieve. If you exceed the time limit, you will have to give it another try.
These are some examples of the interactive activities on this app:

«What struck us the most about this app is the proper pronunciation of the terms/words, which is not very common in those materials whose voice-overs are not treated with the required professionalism».
