Language Success Press, a publisher of accent reduction and business English materials, announces the release of the Speak English Around Town iPad app. The innovative new app helps English language learners navigate daily life in the United States. The app features 15 lessons teaching over 180 American English expressions useful for everyday life, travel, work, and socializing.

"The app teaches the American English expressions that English language learners need to know today," says Tanya Peterson, Marketing Director of Language Success Press. "The app features 15 short movies with realistic animated characters that show the language in action. Each movie has subtitles, with the target expressions highlighted. It's a fun and effective way to remember the expressions."

Interactive quizzes give immediate feedback with reward icons. The app offers many opportunities to practice the expressions.

"The Speak English Around Town app is a great tool for non-native English speakers to speak natural, conversational American English," says Ms. Peterson of Language Success Press. "That includes people living and working in the USA, tourists and business people coming to the USA, and people who live outside the USA who do business in English."

Lessons include: Going Shopping, Negotiating a Purchase, Complaining at a Restaurant, Ordering Food to Go, Making a Doctor's Appointment, Dealing with Lost Luggage, Checking in to a Hotel, Taking a Taxi, and more.

The app lets users customize their learning experience. Users can add expressions they would like to keep studying to a customized study set.

The app is based on the popular book and audio CD, Speak English Around Town.

The iPad app is available on iTunes for $9.99 and is available here: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/speak-english-around-town/id634862303?ls=1&mt=8.

The app is the latest in a series of ESL apps offered by Language Success Press. The company's other apps for learning English include Speak English Like an American, Speak Business English I & II, Say it Better in English, Business English Power Verbs, and Business English Power Idioms.

Since launching its ESL apps in 2010, Language Success Press apps have been downloaded by thousands of English language learners in over 50 countries around the world.
