I just tried out a couple of tests here, but wasn't that impressed. There
isn't much flexibility in the program. E.g., if you list only the masculine
or feminine variant for "cook," the program simply states "Wrong!" in giant
letters. Not much of a confidence builder for beginning students! Based on
that, I'm not sure that I'd want to pay for their premium service with audio
and pronunciation exercises. Who knows, though.

Best,

Geoff

According to #7778, www.wordchamp.com seems to be a great website that you
can
learn/evaluate pronunciation in German.
