APP Time

So, we are feeling very technological at Wall Street Nice today. Therefore, we have a review of all the best English Learnign Apps you can find online. We hope they are helpful. of course, all our selections are free!

WALL STREET INSTITUTE
Where else would we start. Our app is really good and fun. There are huge amounts of exercises for you to use and practice with for both grammar and vocabulary. It is available here on Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.wsi and here on IPhone: https://itunes.apple.com/fr/app/apprendre-langlais-avec-wall/id415659416?mt=8. This really is a great app and I cannot recommend it enough. It is great for you to practice with at home on your phone or tablet.

PRACTICE ENGLISH GRAMMAR
This site is also very good for grammar. it is very detailed and very thorough. it covers lots of different points. On Android there are two levele https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.testsstore.app.peg0 and https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.testsstore.app, but I can only find one on Apple https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/practice-english-grammar-2/id490759167

These are two great apps to start with. I am going to look out for more good ones and will share some next week.
