LANGUAGE LEARNING LEADER OFFERS THREE NEW LANGUAGES WITH ITS REVOLUTIONARY LEARNING PROGRAM

Innovative software guarantees Perfect Recall

Nashua, N.H., October 01, 2005 - Transparent Language, a leader in language learning solutions, today announced the latest languages to be added to Before You Know It ®, the fast, personalized way to learn a language.

"We are thrilled to offer Albanian, Serbian, and Malay with Before You Know It," said Chuck McGonagle, Director of Online Marketing. "We feel that Before You Know It is a revolutionary learning tool and are committed to offering it in as many languages as possible. We are incredibly excited that anyone who wants to start learning Albania, Serbian, or Malay can do so today, at no cost to them at www.byki.com ."

Before You Know It is the fast, personalized way to learn a language. Experts agree that words and small phrases are the building blocks of language. The innovative flash card methodology in Before You Know It lets learners see and hear the foreign language, with native speaker pronunciation, and then leads them through the 4 step Perfect Recall learning cycle.

The four steps of the Perfect Recall learning cycle in Before You Know It monitor the user's responses and constantly adjust to focus on the more challenging vocabulary.
  1. Recognize It - As the user flips through the flash cards they see and hear the foreign language word or phase building their ability to automatically recall the meaning.
  2. Know It - Reinforce the learning by typing in the English meaning.
  3. Produce It - The user now starts generating the foreign language, as they see the English the user thinks of the foreign language.
  4. Own It - Finally type the foreign language when the English is shown.
Once the user has completed all four steps of the program they will have Perfect Recall guaranteed. If they test the material they have studied in Before You Know It and their recall is not 100%, they can return the product for a full refund of the purchase price.
