Tulbrain: Languages & Skills Live

You're already studying a language. This is where you practice it, along with other essential skills. Courses teach. Apps explain. Neither has time for the part that actually builds the skill: the reps. Use Tulbrain alongside whatever you are already learning with. It does not ask you to switch. THE LANGUAGES MODULE Six languages — English, Spanish, Portuguese, German, Italian and French. 3,285 practice units per language, drawn from a real A0 to C2 corpus. Words and phrases at every level; full paragraph readings from B1 up. Behind them sit 22,990 media files: 19,710 audio recordings and 3,280 images. The guided A0 to C2 path is in Early Access. The material is there at every level; the route through it is still being built, in the open. MIND TRAINING: PRACTICE EXERCISES Four short practice exercises with levels, a timer and a best score to beat: Pairs (find the matching pairs), Sequence (repeat the cells in order), Ink & Arrows (tap the color of the ink, not the word) and Quick Math. Each one has 15 levels. Today's training gives you one of each at your level, and Progress shows your level and best score in each. SPEED READING: READING EXERCISES Four reading exercises with levels: Keywords (the key words fly in from the sides), Flash reading (the text appears in the center, a few words at a time), Full text (read the whole passage with a guide) and In Order (put the key words back in order). The passages come from a public-domain classic. You see your own speed in words per minute, and today's training gives you a reading at your level. FREE DAILY ENERGY, ENERGY PACKS, OR A PLAN With a free account, each activity uses 1 Energy (vocabulary practice in Languages is free). Your free Energy tops up to 5 every day; it doesn't add up if you don't use it, and it's always used first. With your account, 20 welcome activities. Conditions: tulbrain.com/en/promo/energia/ If you want more, you can buy Energy packs: each one is a one-time purchase, not a subscription, and the Energy you buy doesn't expire while you have your account. The Premium and Founders plans use no Energy. In the United Kingdom, Tulbrain is by subscription only. HOW A WORD GETS IN Every word arrives as an image and a sound. That pairing is the anchor. Your own language is in there too: under the word when you first meet it, on the back of a card, as the prompt or the hint. It checks you; it is not what you build on. In the listening drills it is not on screen at all. Going through your first language to reach your second is what makes you freeze mid-sentence. Using it to check yourself costs you nothing. 80% SHOULD FEEL LIKE NOTHING The other 20% is work, and pretending otherwise is a lie. You have tried painless, and you know it did not work. In the Languages module, the deliberate work is pronunciation, reading and writing. We tell you where the hard part is instead of hiding it. PLAY IS THE MECHANISM Play is not a reward you collect after you learn: it is part of how Tulbrain teaches. A hundred repetitions inside a game are easier to get through than ten in a drill. WHERE TULBRAIN IS GOING Tulbrain is a suite of practical skills: independent modules that share one method, unconscious learning. Several are already in the app, and more are on the way. ABOUT US We started in October 2020, and we only ship a module when it works. Your key to essential skills. Tulbrain is made by NetMind Cloud LLC.
