> Learn in an Immersion Context
> Watch video scenarios of native speakers in every-day situations. Slow down the sound to hear every nuance of speech, and turn the Ojibwe text or the English translation on or off as you watch. Move at your own pace.
> Interactive Conversational Practice
> Practice speaking using the prompts and integrated speech features, then record your voice and replay the whole conversation with the lines you've recorded.
> 
> Grammar Information at Your Fingertips
> Quickly and easily access grammar information on any word you come across. Expand your knowledge of how a word is used in context. Find out the part of speech, how a word is inflected, or read a grammar tutorial.
> 
> Pronunciation Practice
> Improve your pronunciation by listening to a native speaker and comparing with your own voice. The audio spectrograph will compare your pronunciation with the native speaker and provide feedback for improvement.
