I love IEAR, so innovative and helpful for 1:1 teachers!
Our Elementary campus has been lucky enough to purchase two iPod and iPad carts for our teachers to use in the classroom. These first word apps are great to use with our pre-K and kindergarden students. Students just want to learn on these devices and have a lot of fun doing it.
I teach K-12 teachers. I would review the apps and if the apps can be used to benefit the students I would notify the appropriate teacher to take a look at the apps as a way to help in their classroom.
My wife and I are beginning homeschooling our kids this fall. We would love to have this app to teach them a foreign language. Our plan is to help them become proficient in the language and then take them on a mission trip to a country where that language is spoken. Keep up the good work!

I have the Firstwords deluxe on my iPad and would love it on my phone too - it's a great vocabulary builder and conversation starter with my 4 year old with a language delay.
