SCS Extends Free Support to Language Students

University of Toronto School of Continuing Studies languages students now receive free and extended access to the online language support program, Tell Me More™.  Students enrolled in core courses and some advanced courses in Dutch, French, German, Italian, Spanish and Mandarin now receive six months of free access to the interactive online program, Tell Me More™ as a part of each course package.  Tell Me More™ offers a personalized experience for students and covers material from absolute beginner to advanced levels.  Using dialogues and videos that illustrate scenes from daily life, the online software is available any time of day to students looking for fun and engaging language exercises that focus on both social and career-based situations.

Tell Me More™ users enjoy the multi-media experience that uses 3-D animations, full-action video, speech recognition, speech analysis and interactive exercises to offer multiple ways of learning.  With more than seven million users, and use in over 15 000 organizations, Tell Me More™ has a proven track record when it comes to learning languages.

Dr. Gordon Davies, Director of Languages and Translation at SCS, says that “students have responded enthusiastically to Tell Me More™.  This program complements the in-class instruction with even more opportunities to learn, and offering it free makes our tuition an exceptional value for students.”

Alumni of our Languages courses may also purchase access to six months of instruction on Tell Me More™ for $120, a significant savings over the regular retail price of $529.  Please visit the reception desk at the School of Continuing Studies for more information on how to purchase this service.
