Star Pronunciation

Computer and Internet Checklist

Are you ready to start improving? GREAT!  Your Star Pronunciation lessons are in video.  You will watch a minimum of 1 hour of video training each week (there’s lots more if you want to do more!).

Before you start it we’ve compiled this checklist for you to double check your internet connection.

Computer and Internet Checklist

  • Yes I have a good broadband connection (ADSL2, or at least 8Mbps ADSL1, or cable internet, or 3G, with a BIG Plan)
  • Yes I have an Internet Plan of over 4GB per month.
  • Yes I understand that I may not be able to view my lessons from my work computer because some large companies block access to unknown sites.

The Star Pronunciation videos aren't working well. What can I do?
I can't watch the videos at home. What other options do I have?
5] If you are a University student you could watch the lessons at University. There is often wireless and desktop computers with internet access.
Should I upgrade my internet plan?
Can I access my lessons from a wireless internet card?
Can I watch the lessons in full screen?
Yes you can, but we don’t think it’s the best way to study the videos due to screen size.
iphone
We recommend that you put the MP3 audio files on your iphone to use for practice. Our system will also allow you to watch the videos on your iphone, however the videos are made for a larger screen and completing the quizzes and using star check may prove more difficult. 
Android smart phones
We recommend that you put the MP3 audio files on your android to use for practice. Our system will also allow you to watch the videos on most newer android phones, however the videos are made for a larger screen and completing the quizzes and using star check may prove more difficult. Our tests also found pausing the video created issues for reloading.
