Description
Jiveworld fills a crucial gap for intermediate-level and above language learners who've hit the "sound barrier" — where the language you've learned in the classroom doesn't resemble what you actually hear at street level. Jiveworld uses engaging and interesting stories from Radio Ambulante, an award winning podcast featuring stories from across Latin America. The stories are broken into chapters and paired with the patented Jiveworld player which provides help and guidance when you need it, and gets out of the way when you don't.
Only have a few minutes a day? Try Soundbites. These mini lessons pose a question or challenge based on an audio excerpt from a full story. When you're done listening, tap reveal to check the answer and show deeper insights into the challenge. Soundbites go far beyond the dictionary, exploring the language and culture across eight dimensions: Idioms & Sayings, Speech & Accents, Useful Patterns, Vernacular & Slang, Strategies, Grammar, Vocabulary, and History & Culture.
Jiveworld offers you help as you listen, with speed controls, vocabulary, and notes about language and the cultural context. But the real magic lies in some unique features:
• Story Scaffolding — stories organized into chapters and passages, with succinct guides that help you follow the plot
• X-Ray Script — follow the script while you listen, but only show the most difficult words
• Smart Pause — ensures you always listen in complete sentences, without stop-start in unnatural places
• Study Flow — after you complete a chapter in Study mode, re-listen in Natural Listen mode to reinforce the authentic sounds of the language
* Vocabulary Review — master the new words and phrases you encounter with a unique ears-first story-based review workflow
• Deep Insights — many stories feature Soundbite challenges, focusing on an aspect of language or culture, presented before the chapter you're about to study
• Idiom to Idiom — wherever you see a translation, you'll see the most natural expression in both languages, showing you how your target language really works.
By studying regularly with Jiveworld, you'll be able to engage in real conversations with any Spanish speaker.
