tors your practicing and — like a real teacher — tells you
how well you did each exercise.
Four grades are assigned,
depending on your performance: “OK,” “Good,” “Very
Good,” and “Excellent.”
Want to find out more?

This feature “talks” to you through the speakers,
“announcing” the Grade comments as well as the titles of
the Lesson steps.

to your liking, letting you slow down difficult passages
and bring up the tempo gradually until you master them at
normal speed.
