Joe Walsh, English teacher, creator of Cogdex
Hi!
I’m Joe Walsh, a professional teacher and the creator of this tool.
Several years ago I created the website inglesporinternet.com for Spanish speakers to learn English before creating this tool for anyone in the world with an internet connection to learn English.
I created this tool because existing language learning software and textbooks did not reflect the best learning practices.
Cogdex offers a more authentic language-learning experience. Most importantly, it is based on videos of real people speaking real English. This provides the chance to learn from authentic pronunciation and diction. Video also provides the context clues that help make the language more understandable. Language learning experts call this “comprehensible input.”
I know about language learning both as a teacher and a learner. I have lived a large part of my life speaking Spanish as a second language, and I also love to study new languages as a hobby (in fact, I’m using a private version of Cogdex to learn Portuguese).
With Cogdex, in less than 30 minutes a day from your phone or computer, you can make amazing progress in English with this technology.
I guarantee it.
