VTrain is a flashcard-based tool used in 20+ universities. Its unique spaced learning system guarantees you will remember any foreign word for years after only a few repetitions.

It includes an automatic scheduling facility that draws up a timetable of spaced repetitions for you and reminds you when a flashcard has to be reviewed again. The goal of this is to beat what psychologists call the ''forgetting curve'', with minimum effort.

On the other hand, VTrain includes a rich text editor that supports image edition and voice recording via OLE. A smart keyboard layout switch for 2 languages and virtual keyboards that you can edit make multilingual edition easy.

If you'd rather use ready Decks of flashcards, you can also download free flashcards in 40 languages from the VTrain website. --- Getting started with this program can be confusing because of certain non-trivial features. First-time users are encouraged to take the Tutorial from the Help menu.

VTrain can operate over local area networks. It is free for schools and has been registered by 25 universities.
