Your PC is the PT (Personal Tutor)

LEARN-IT is a low cost ($24.95 + $5 S&H) educational software program that runs on any WINDOWS(c) computer, from Windows 95 through Windows 7, and using DOSBox (a free simulator included on the program CD), it will run on a Mac OS X(c), or a Linux computer.   LEARN-IT will turn your personal computer into an effective PERSONAL TUTOR, and there are no extra user fees -- EVER!

While it does not need the Internet to develope Learn-Files or when it is used for study (that would be way to slow), but Learn-Files can be exchanged by sending them as e-mail attachments, posting them for downloading, or using a CD or USB Flash Drive.  Hundreds can be stored on one CD. 

As a menu driven program, anyone who can type can create Learn-Files and there is nothing to learn to use this program.   You just read the menu options, and go instantly from screen to screen.   This program runs super FAST, so you get the maximum learning from the time invested doing repetitions.   It's much faster and more efficient than paper flash cards.
.

to go through a Learn-File, a question (or prompt) appears near the top of the screen.  You try to answer it in your mind (typing the answer would be way too slow), and press any key to instantly view the correct answer.  Then give yourself a score -- from 1 for a total blank, to 5 for instant recall.  As soon as you enter your score, the next question instantly appears, and the process is repeated through the file.  The secret for successful memorization is doing many quick repetitions, spread out over several days.  A lot can be accomplished in just ten minutes a day.

When you use the Spelling Tutor...    

a word appears and disappears after 2, 3 or 4 seconds (depending on the length of the word), you are asked to spell it in your mind (typing it is an option), press any key to see the correct spelling (if you typed it you compare your spelling with the correct spelling), and give yourself a progress score of from 1 to 5.  It suggests you repeat the correct spelling verbally, or in your mind, then press any key to instantly see the next word.   The LEARN-IT CD includes Spell-Files for 330 of the most frequently misspelled words.  You can easily develop Spell-Files with words you select from those Spell-Files, or words you enter from the keyboard.   Including definitions is optional.

When studying either Learn-Files or Spell-Files, on successive repetitions you select a level for study.  Like, "I only want to study those that I graded 2 or less the last time through the file."  Menu options allow you to change the sequence of the Learn-File questions, or to go through a file answers first.
 
Note to parents:  It's OK if you sneak some computer time and brush up on your spelling.  In less than an hour, you can go through the 330 frequently misspelled words, give yourself a score of 5 for the ones you know well.  Then do several repetitions a day for the remaining words, and before long you will have mastered all of them.
.

At the end of each repetitions, a graph appears with a score of from 0% to 100% and a few words of encouragement.  A single key stroke allows you to view (or print out) a history of your repetitions through the open Learn-File.  This progress file tells how many times you have studied the file, the average time viewing the answers on each repetition, and the total time invested in all of your repetitions through the open file.

The progress file can also be used by teachers and parents as a diagnostic tool.  If little Johnny says to his parents or teacher, "I can't learn this stuff," they can respond, "Johnny, let's take a look at your progress file and see why you are not learning it."   Or more likely, "See what you are not doing."  Johnny may say, "That's not fair!"  But that's O.K., because it's an imperative for his success in life that he will LEARN-IT. 

Every parent should make sure that their children learn all of the basic math essentials.  When they have correct, instant, recall, for all of the four basic functions from 0 + 0 to 72 / 12, math courses will be easier.   If a young student does not put them to memory, they will probably develop a fear and hate for all math, stunting their educational progress with life-long negative implications.  It's probable that there are people in prison today, who would not be there if they had mastered these basics when they were in grade school. 

With enough repetitions, every young person can master these basics for a lifetime of instant recall.  Older students and adults who struggle with math can still master them using LEARN-IT.   It's never too late to LEARN-IT.

For some young students, it's an imperative for a parent or teacher to man the keyboard and ask for verbal answers from the student on the first time through each math Learn-File, and then, as a coach, to monitor their progress by checking the student's progress file at least once a week.  If they do enough repetitions, spread over many days, THEY WILL LEARN-IT.  

When using LEARN-IT to memorize the meanings of roots, prefixes and suffixes, a prompt (root, prefix of suffix) appears.  After trying to mentally recall the meaning, you press any key to instantly see the correct definition and two or three sample words. 
.
Latin and Greek roots, prefixes and suffixes are the building blocks for English (and five other Latin based languages).  Learning them will lead to a lifetime of accelerated vocabulary growth.  The word parts will be like hooks that help you catch, understand, and retain, the meanings for thousands of words.   And of course, a comprehensive vocabulary is the key for better listening and reading comprehension.
.
LEARN-IT with its Vocabulary Builder is a must for preparation for the SAT, ACT, or a graduate school entrance exam.  Studying word lists can help you do better on these tests, but you will learn definitions faster, and retain them longer, if you use LEARN-IT to memorize the meanings of roots, prefixes, and suffixes.

Spelling, Math, and Vocabulary are just a beginning

If you can type, you can create Learn-Files for any subject about as fast as you can type prompts and answers.  Parents can develop Learn-Files for young children.  Students can exchange Learn-Files they create by sending them as attachments to e-mails, on CDs, or by USB Flash Drives.  School teachers and professors can prepare Learn-Files with crucial content for home-work, and employers can create Learn-Files for training their employees (policies and procedures, product information etc.), or to help customers LEARN-IT (how to use a product, etc.).  

Almost anything that should be memorized, can be mastered more efficiently by using LEARN-IT.  Like an athlete, you will become a winner by doing repetitions.   And, it's not slow like the Internet.  You never have to wait for the next screen, so you will LEARN-IT FASTER.  

Each LEARN-IT CD includes Learn-Files for the Math Tutor, the Vocabulary Builder, and Spell-Files for 330 frequently misspelled words.  A license is for all of the computers in a one family household (plus grandparents who need to exercise their memories -- we use it or we lose it), or for one computer at a business.  The CD also includes some additional Learn-Files, including one for States in the USA (abbreviations, capitals, and nicknames), one for the Bill of Rights (first ten amendments to the U.S Constitution), commands for the MS/DOS operating sysem (you don't need to know them to use LEARN-IT, but they are great tools for Windows house keeping functions, and several Learn-Files with about 300 verses from the Bible.  

You can purchase LEARN-IT, with the SPELLING TUTOR for $24.95 plus $5 for S&H (we pay the sales tax for Texans), and there are no additional charges for sending LEARN-IT to other countries.  The purchaser is responsible for any duty or import fees.
