Merit Software Introduces "Essential English Fitness" and "Picture Context Reader," The Latest Additions to Its Award-Winning Line
New York, NY (PRWeb) February 28, 2007 -- Merit software has added Essential English Fitness and Picture Context Reader to its line of educational software for English language learners. These programs are designed to help High Beginning and Low Intermediate ELL students master grammar and reading fundamentals. The programs put English language learning in context with sentences and pictures that relate to everyday life situations.
The Essential English Fitness software teaches students to identify and correct errors in usage by reading and responding to common English sentences. The program covers subject-verb agreement, the past tense of irregular verbs, double negatives, and plural nouns. Picture Context Reader teaches students to read and respond to illustrated vocabulary questions posed in complete sentences. The illustrations and contextual clues in the text help students grasp unfamiliar vocabulary words.
The programs allow students to advance at their own pace, and context-sensitive feedback personalizes instruction as students work towards mastery of each grammar concept or vocabulary word. Merit Software is intuitive, easy to use, and requires minimal training. Merit's built-in teacher management system allows instructors to follow students' progress and intervene when a student is having trouble.
Essential English Fitness and Picture Context Reader are available in several configurations. A 1-Station version, which includes tracking for 42 students, is available for $179.00. A Home version, which holds records for two students, is available for $39.00. These two program are also bundled together in the 2007 ESL Beginning Skills Pack, which gives customers significant savings versus purchasing the programs separately. A 1-Station version of the Skills Pack is $289 and a Home version is $65. Network, multi-station, and site licenses are also offered.

Alagoas Is Northeast Brazil's Six-Star Destination
The Northeastern Brazilian state of Alagoas is fast becoming Brazil's next Six-star destination. The Northeast region's second-smallest state (27,767 sq km) has an impressive coastline relative to its size (230 km) which many say is the most beautiful in Brazil because of its coral reefs, myriad coconut palms, white sand, red cliffs and bright turquoise sea. It has long been a popular Brazilian tourist destination, yet the opening of the international airport just outside the capital, Maceio, in 2005, with the potential of welcoming direct flights from Europe next year, has brought it to the attention of international investors for the first time.
