• Flexible testing options allow precise isolation of problem areas
• A full glossary includes definitions of all terms used in the program with symbols, pronunciations, visual and aural examples

• Ideal for home use or small studio use (if the educator does not need to keep scores in a grade-book format)
• Unlimited number of users
• Save scores to hard drive or disk
• Scores visible only by individual student with password entry

Educator Version:
• Ideal for small studio use (if the educator desires the ability to view all student scores in a “grade book” format and track progress) or small classroom use with less than five computers

Network Version:
• Ideal for large classroom or schools that have networked computer labs
• Unlimited number of users (standard version comes with 5, but an unlimited number of additional users may be purchased)
• Allows the educator to set up classes or groups so that their grade book can be separated by day, time, grade level, etc. (i.e. 7th grade class, Fifth Period Class, etc.)
• Educator can change their password, manage groups/classes and designate a specific folder for the students to save their scores in to make importing by group quick and easy
• Educator can view scores by class list, import multiple scores at one time, print individual and class score sheets, export student data as EMT data or as a text file for other uses
• Educator can track student progress by the second to ensure students’ time is being spent wisely and to see how much time a student has spent on any given concept
• Customized tests allow compatibility with Scantron test sheets with multiple-choice questions.
• Bookmark tracks student’s place in the program and allows them to pick up where they last left off
