Some Feedback from Previous Users of the game

Dear Amin,

Your game is one of the most useful and enjoyable tools on the net to help people of all ages learn the English language. I'm an English teacher here in Brazil, and I've been using your game as a tool to stimulate my pupils to help them solve some spelling difficulties they've been facing. The least I could and must say is thank you very much for such an exciting and creative tool... And Last but not least: I can't wait to have an update! Please, keep on improving this amazing tool!" (RJ, Brazil)

“I really like this game. As you've probably guessed I work in a school and I would like to try this with SEN pupils…I'm going to try it out on a few pupils next week and update you. Yours thankfully,” (AM, UK)

“have had a quick game (must work harder on my spellings!) and it looks great…- I will try it on the kids tomorrow…” (UA,UK)

“Firstly, fabulous that you have created something, my son loves it and it is great to have something with English speaking. Its really good, thank you!” (Survey)
