Courses

Courses provide structured, multi-chapter language learning. Each course is broken into chapters and sections that combine example sentences, quizzes, and pronunciation practice.

Course Structure

A course is organized in three levels:

  • Course — A learning track (for example, "Everyday Spanish" or "Business English").
  • Chapter — A themed group of sections within a course.
  • Section — A focused learning unit containing example sentences, quizzes, and optional assessments.

Browsing Courses

  1. Open the Courses page from the sidebar.
  2. Browse the course list — each card shows the cover, title, description, and progress (if enrolled).
  3. Click a course card to open its detail view.

Enrolling in a Course

On a course's detail page:

  1. Review the course description, chapter list, and enrollment status.
  2. Click Enroll to start the course.
  3. You'll be taken to the first chapter automatically.

Progress is tracked per chapter and shown on course cards.

Studying a Section

A section is the main learning unit. It typically includes:

  • Example sentences — Listen to the audio, study the text, and use shadow reading to practice pronunciation.
  • Pronunciation assessment — Record yourself and receive per-word, per-syllable feedback.
  • Pitch contour — Visualize your intonation against the reference audio.
  • Quizzes — Test comprehension with multiple-choice or fill-in questions.

Section Shortcuts

  • Space - Play / Pause the example audio
  • R - Start / Stop recording your voice
  • Esc - Cancel an in-progress recording
  • G - Play / Pause your recording
  • V - Show / Hide the pronunciation assessment
  • Sections drawer — Open the drawer to jump to any section in the current chapter.
  • Course nav — Move forward / backward between sections.
  • Chapter switcher — Use the chapter drawer to switch chapters.

Tips for Course Learning

  • Work in order — Sections build on each other; complete them sequentially for best results.
  • Re-record freely — The pitch contour comparison is most useful after 2-3 takes.
  • Use quizzes as checkpoints — If a quiz is hard, revisit the previous section's examples.
