Excellent quality eductional programs which cover tenses of verbs, nouns, verbs, adjectives and adverbs on English topics on side one, and tens and units addition plus a long division tutor on side two.

Accompanying the cassette was a little booklet with full explanations, instructions and information on how to alter the programs to meet your own requirements.

The purpose is to help reinforce subjects already taught - a drill exercise. Many already exist, some good, most awful. This is one of the best, and there are four programs on the tape!

Well-written, first class use of graphics and sound, user friendly, good motivation, a picture is built up of correct answers, enjoyable and well error-trapped.

The format is the same for all four programs, a question is asked, an answer given, if correct the picture at the top is built up, if wrong another try is allowed, sometimes help is given, and, if still wrong, then the correct answer is given.
