Christine Gonzalez, Recipient of the 1995 McDonald's Disney American English Teacher Award:
"It has been so exciting to use a product that teaches vocabulary in a creative way. Each Monday my students eagerly await the next video segment. I have seen amazing results in just a few months; students who were failing quizzes repeatedly with my 'old' method of teaching vocabulary are now consistently making '100's' each week. The flashcards are excellent, as they visually reinforce what has been taught in the classroom. I am convinced that my students will retain these words much longer than they previously did. Thank you, What's the Word? for making a product that is simultaneously accessible, fun and educational!"
