User Reviews about High Achiever Vocabulary

English is not my first language and I was looking for software that can help me improve my vocabulary and spelling. I bought the High Achiever's spelling and vocabulary software. I love the vocabulary because it defines the word, puts in a sentence and tests your ability to spell it back. I find it entertaining.The vocabulary it uses is curiculam based (grade 9 - 12) and not too easy. -- Entertaining and educational software

A decent tool to use as an aid. This isn't going to help ace the SATs but it's a start. There are enough words and pronunciations to help them advance but it's work, good luck getting them to be consistent. You can do as well with any vocab book but the pronunciation feature does give this one a leg up. For the price? You can't go wrong. -- Inexpensive tool

The vocabulary program contains 1500 words. Not enough for SAT prep, but it is an excellent next step to the children's dictionary program from Macmillan that my 10 year old son is studying from right now. (I make him spell 30 words every Saturday before he can play his Xbox. He hates spelling, but he loves Xbox more.)

This program is probably at the early high school level, with words such as reconcile, mellifluous, quintessential. The wonderful thing is, it gives both definition and pronunciation, plus it has exercises and games to help learn the words and the spelling. So it is useful for people who know what the words mean but don't necessarily know how to pronounce them perfectly.

Unfortunately, in the custom lists, you can't put in your own pronunciations. Still, it's a neat little program to have, excellent teaching tool. Totally worth buying at this modest price. -- Excellent little product for the price
