dexway

The dexway Community has, through its FORUMS, a new educational environment to practice cultural interaction between students and instructors. Now with dexway, students can present their point of view on current events; learn about new customs, traditions and festivals as well as find students from around the world that are learning the same language. All of this from the hand of the dexway tutorial team, always at the side of students also through the question room one2one Always 24×7×365.

How can I access the forums?

Through the portal www.dexway.com and then starting the session with the access keys to enter the dexway Community. By clicking on “enter” inside of the forum section, the corresponding forums and threads are automatically downloaded to the student’s course.

Alternatively, from the student platform, it can be accessed through Communication>Forums.

What is dynamic about the forums?

In the forums, the tutors present activities and subjects about all of the cultural nuances in the country. In this way, a cultural education is obtained through the interactions between tutors and students.

The tutors are in charge of presenting the activity, as well as animating and moderating the thread. In addition to posting comments through writing, they also post a recorded video so that the students can pick up the pronunciation, intonation and language verbally. At dexway, we like to take advantage of every occasion to promote reading and verbal comprehension, helping us equally with our tutors’ presentation in order to humanize eLearning language education.

What subjects are covered?

Four subjects are covered and they are continually refreshed. Choosing a subject is determined by its relevancy, novelty and importance needed for learning.

Forums and study groups

dexway also offers its students Study Groups: an environment where the students meet to exchange experiences, chat and practice grammar aspects or use the language when they consider opportune. The exchange is done in the virtual video-conference room with a virtual blackboard and projector, available 24×7×365 days a year.

The forum is an asynchronous communication tool that stimulates reflection, investigation and editing, as opposed to the spontaneity and verbal usage within the Study Groups. However, both educational environments are essential in the teaching of languages; so we recommend that students make use of both as much as they wish.

Dexway is as close as we get to private instruction at the house of each student, without the need to move anywhere when you have available native speaking tutors 24×7×365 days a year through the one2one virtual classroom.

The dexway language method is now available on the web.

dexway integrates a new voice recognition system that evaluates pronunciation automatically as the student progresses towards course completion.

dexway students practice the pronunciation of words and expressions that appear throughout. They record their voice in a way where they can hear their own pronunciation and compare it to that of a native speaker. At the same time, the exercises are indicated instantaneously with colors if the pronunciation is correct or not and what part of the word or expression needs to be improved.

The color green indicates that the pronunciation is correct, while the one in red indicates that it is wrong. The intermediate tones allow the student to see that he or she must improve the intonation and pronunciation.

Additionally, the student can see the wave graphic and in this way compare it with the voice of a native speaker.

In this way, the student has an automatic pronunciation evaluator, alongside a personalized pronunciation evaluation made on behalf of native speakers with all of the free expression exercises.

dexway students of British and American English have advantageous benefits to matriculate themselves into new dexway prep courses to obtain the TOEFL and First Certificate international certifications.

These courses include twelve courses. Six of them are individual classes with an instructor geared toward obtaining these certifications. The other six lessons consist of practice or test exercises that the student performs to prove the level reached until he or she is certain that they are prepared to take the corresponding linguistic competency test. Students can repeat the tests as many times as they want and they have at least three months to perform them.

Currently, dexway has prep courses for the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) and for the First Certificate in English (FCE), one of the ESOL English level exams offered by the University of Cambridge.

About the ASTD

The American Society for Training & Development (ASTD) is the largest association in the world dedicated to educational programs at the workplace. Its members belong to more than 100 countries and work in thousands of organizations and businesses of all types, whether they are Public Administrations, providers, consultants or small and mid-size businesses.

The Dexway Method offers all of the advantages of online training along with the constant presence of professors who are native speakers.

Training employees in foreign languages is one of the greatest challenges faced by Human Resources Managers in large companies. Where can they find permanent training that is not dependant on issues of physical location, schedules or commutes, and which also offers the human element that only an experienced native professor can provide?

Foreign language instruction in a virtual environment, as it is often done, might provide solutions to some of these challenges, but will not meet all the needs of a Human Resources Department, and leaves some problems unaddressed.

Some of these problems include lack of time on the part of employees, the fact that they do not all start at the same level or learn at the same rate, their varying profiles and nationalities and the cost of commuting or traveling to different locations. In our system, however, these aspects are addressed through a methodology that has succeeded in bringing together the most advanced eLearning technology and the most complete personalized service both for the employee being trained and the company that wishes to train its team.

Through its perfect integration of online multimedia with both visual and verbal access to the student’s professor at any time of day or night, the Dexway language method represents the most successful development in foreign language training to date, offering the advantages of several types of training all in a single method.

The human element is provided by Dexway through the personal attention of native professors whenever the user needs it. At no extra cost and without having to exit the computer learning environment, the student can speak to his or her professor face to face at any time, 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, with just a click of the mouse whenever he or she has any questions or concerns while taking the online course.

Dexway has done away with impersonal training, ensuring maximum efficiency in the learning process. Besides benefiting from a series of activities that allow the student to learn in a way that is visual, natural and enjoyable, without becoming bored and almost without realizing it, the student will also benefit from the unfailing support of his or her native professor at all times.

This allows the student to evaluate his or her learning, for example, in the case of something as tricky as pronunciation. Dexway has included the most advanced current technology in voice recognition, but also ensures utmost reliability in the evaluation of the student’s pronunciation by allowing the user to transmit his or her voice to the professor, so that he or she can personally correct the pronunciation, transmitting his or her own voice so that the student will truly understand how to improve. This is without a doubt the most effective way of ensuring consistent progress.

Dexway Online Language Courses for businesses

Dexway ensures full tutoring and it does this through a tracking card for each one of the students, which keeps a record of the student’s participation in the training for the Human Resources Department and other pertinent organizations, allowing for effective follow-up. This greatly facilitates the organization’s Human Resource Department’s training activities.

Through a series of proactive contacts on the part of the tutors during the training period, tracking reports are generated and sent to the person in charge of training in real time or at predetermined intervals.

This is in addition to the reactive tracking that is performed through the method’s integrated personalized Learning Management System (LMS) platform. The native tutors create “one-on-one” rooms that they leave open during the entire session in order to attend to the student’s needs at the moment they have any questions or concerns.

Multiple methods of company training

Every department and every industry has different requirements when it comes to language, specific expressions and specialized vocabulary. For this reason, Dexway provides customized courses that offer all the benefits of the Dexway methodology, whether for the business world or for other professional sectors.

Just as in the one-on-one courses, in the direct group classes with an interactive chalkboard, the professor moderates and coordinates the group of online participants
