Introducing VCEnglish, ‘your mobile tutor’
A new mobile app for VCE students created by local education specialist
We are very pleased to announce the new VCEnglish iPhone App for Victorian VCE English/EAL students — with an Android version coming soon!
This app has been created by experienced VCE teacher, Victorian English textbook author and English Exam assessor, Anne Mitchell.
Anne says, “I’ve never been in the business of creating apps until now, but I am in the education business and I realised there was a real need for students to have a VCE tutor on hand 24/7 through their mobile devices when I first noticed students were bringing tablets into classes instead of exercise books.
“I’m an old hand at all things VCE and textbooks but the world of apps was new to me. It took a lot longer and was a lot harder than I anticipated, but we really got it right and I’m absolutely thrilled with the final product.
“Every part of the app is a toolkit that everyone can start using right away, learning to study and write more effectively, immediately.
“There’s step by step instructions dealing with every part of the course in plain language. It’s functional, easy to navigate and users can even reach me in person to answer any questions via the vcenglish.com.au website.”
While developed primarily as a tool for VCE students, VCEnglish has also turned out to be a multi-function tool for anyone serious about getting the written English language right. English teachers, journalists, in fact every writer can benefit from the sections about spelling rules, punctuation, grammar and jargon
The iOS app is available from the Apple App Store for $8.49.
