My Word Coach, developed in collaboration with linguists, helps players improve their verbal communication and vocabulary in a fun way. Practice with six different exercises to choose between. Players can input missing letters from words, spell out the answers to various definitions, choose which word matches a particular definition, form specific words with Scrabble-like tiles, and more. Three levels of difficulty are available, and the game includes a built-in dictionary of over 17,000 words. Two of the games can be played multiplayer over wireless and five multiplayer games can be accessed when linking the Wii and DS. The data of up to three different players can be saved.

Rating: - Fun!
Ok this is fun and educational. Some of the level types are a bit akward. The good part is, you can stick to the game level types that you like and still learn all the words. Overall this is a fantastic tool. I am well educated, with a couple of bachelors degrees and it teaches me new words!

It's a good thing this game reminds you to stop playing for the day or between this and the Fit balance board I wouldn't get anything else done.

Of the stack of software I bought for my new Wii, this is, by far, the most worthwhile. *My Word Coach* has meaty content in a clever delivery. It's maybe not best suited for the Wii interface--sometimes I feel I'm being tested more on my controller skills than on my linguistic aptitude--but that's a small concern.

This program should serve as a model for future developments in EduGaming. The format seems well suited for related content. The structuring of the delivery is impressive; ... Read More

Rating: - my opinion of my word coach game
This is a fun game to play with 6 different training games and 2 games to play for fun. Also has a few multiplayer games. In the spelling be game it is sometimes hard to understand the word that is said so it is hard to spell it right. Overall worth the price.
