Children experience their surroundings in a unique way—they truly absorb everything around them. They engage with their environment using all their senses and respond with their full range of emotions. Everything they see and hear isn’t just something to remember; it’s something to feel deeply and carry in their hearts.
As we first began exploring the world as children and learned the language that captures the world through sounds, we absorbed everything all at once. We drank up our surroundings with all our senses and experienced them fully with our emotions. This deep connection was linked to new information in our brains, and helped us remember it more effectively.
There’s a reason people say: “Tell me and I forget. Show me and I remember. Involve me and I understand.”
Unfortunately, when we learn a language as adults, we often find ourselves memorizing lists of words without any real context or experience to anchor them. Many adults even learn “silently,” without speaking out loud. This approach makes everything feel too abstract and disconnected from real life, which is why learning from textbooks often lacks the joy and engagement we crave. As a result, we often struggle to remember the new knowledge we learn, because it's not linked to our real world like our native language was.
That’s why at Mooveez, we strive to make every sentence a part of a conversation or a story. We make our characters as vivid as possible to activate all your senses and absorb you into the story. But how can we taste, smell or feel using an app?
We try to integrate you fully into the story through the characters' emotions and easily imaginable scenarios, that evke sensory experience in your mind. Such as ordering a warm cup of coffee on a cold winter day. By hearing everything within the context of the story, the sentences become easy to visualize, evoking a rich sensory experience. As you repeat the phrases throughout the story, you breathe life into them. Don't hesitate to express the emotions that our characters feel—let yourself play along!
All of this will make it easy for you to remember new words and phrases, helping them stick in your memory for a long time.
We all have the ability to learn to speak any language, just as we did with our native tongue. Together, we can reignite that natural talent within ourselves once again.
