About GenevaLogic
Founded in Langenthal, Switzerland, GenevaLogic
has grown from a small four-person startup to one
of the worlds leading provider of educational
management solutions. Since that humble
beginning, GenevaLogic has expanded to a global
organization co-headquartered in Switzerland and
the United States. From the start, GenevaLogics
mission was to place the focus on solutions that
empower the teaching process. It is our belief
that through the appropriate use of technology,
students can become more engaged in the subject
matter, learn faster, and benefit from a higher
retention rate. Today our family of active
teaching systems includes 9 main products
translated into nine languages, and sold in over
49 countries worldwide. SpeedLingua, a
privately held company engaged in the research
and development of audio-phonological technology
based in Luxemburg and Geneva has developed a
language learning software application that is a
unique breakthrough in language learning by
combining phonological science with IT. The
SpeedLingua technology significantly improves the
overall learning process by rapidly reducing
accents and improving listening comprehension.
Commonly known language barriers which often lead
to miscommunication can be overcome quickly with
this worldwide patented technology. GenevaLogic
exclusively distributes the SpeedLingua
technology and products in Germany, Switzerland,

Rapidly reduces accents and improves listening
comprehension Features globally patented,
real-time voice modulation technology Significant
improvement in as few as 12 sessions Prepares
students for intensive language study and tests
of spoken language skills Designed for beginning,
intermediate, or advanced language
learners Available in American or British
English, Spanish, Mandarin, German, French or
Dutch
Breakthrough Technology
SpeedLinguas worldwide patented real-time voice
modulation technology is based on phonological
science which is about how a certain sound is
being processed by the human ear.
Accelerate
Students will be able to steadily hear the
frequencies which they found to be inaudible
before using this training method and previously
caused communication problems. Significant
improvements in listening comprehension and
spoken skills can be obtained in as few as 12
sessions with SpeedLingua.
Customizable
SpeedLingua makes learners really enjoy a foreign
language by offering them to choose among the
various levels of difficulty and complexity which
mostly suits the personal ability of the foreign
language learner. SpeedLingua can easily be
integrated in exisiting language courses.

Using SpeedLingua
Learners begin each SpeedLingua practice section
by listening to 15 minutes of recorded music that
gradually modulates into the frequency of the
target language, readying their ears to listen.
Learners choose from multi-level exercises and
topic-specific prompts or select FreeSpeak mode
to read from any text including presentations,
classroom texts, or passages provided by
instructors.
After the practice session, students take
pronunciation and listening comprehension tests
to gauge their success. Teachers and
administrators can monitor student test results
when SpeedLingua is installed over a network.

Using a headset with a microphone, a SpeedLingua
user either repeats a recorded prompt or reads a
passage of her choosing.
SpeedLingua instantly analyses the learners
voice, adjusts it to match the frequency of the
target language, and plays it back through the
learners headphones.
The learner hears her own voice in real time in
the frequency of the target language and
unconsciously adjusts here pronunciation to match
what she is hearing.
The active process of SpeedLingua comprises
instantaneous analysis, modification and replay
of the users speech. The result of this process
is that earners hear their voices, as they speak,
with characteristics of the target language.
SpeedLinguass patented, research-based
technology represents a breakthrough in preparing
students for successful listening and speaking
and is designed to complement classroom-based and
electronic language education programs.
