Torotalk

Torotalk Logo

Torotalk is an innovative Spanish language teaching app developed in Android Studio using Kotlin. Unlike traditional language learning apps, Torotalk emphasizes understanding the logic behind the language, making it easier and more intuitive to learn Spanish.

About the Project

Traditional language learning apps often focus on rote memorization, which can be tedious and ineffective. Torotalk takes a different approach by teaching the rules and logic of Spanish, allowing users to understand and construct sentences naturally.

Torotalk's teaching method includes:

  • Rule-Based Learning: Explaining how English words translate to Spanish using logical rules.
    • For example, words ending in "ly" in English are transformed to end with "mente" in Spanish (e.g., "quickly" becomes "rápidamente").
    • Words like "preparation" are understood as "preparación" in Spanish, derived from the verb "preparar" (to prepare).
  • Interactive Quizzes: Reinforcing the learned rules with quizzes after each lesson.
  • Real-time Feedback: Providing instant correction and scoring to guide learning.

Features

  • Firebase Authentication: Secure user sign-up and login.
  • Firestore Integration: Dynamic storage of quiz questions and answers for easy updates.
  • Text and Quiz Integration: Lessons followed by quizzes to reinforce learning.
  • Score Tracking: Keeps track of quiz scores and progress.
  • User-friendly Interface: Intuitive design for a seamless learning experience.
