Science behind Perdisco
Perdisco uses a smart algorithm based on the ‘forgetting curve’, which hypothesizes the decline of memory retention in time. When you make a mistake, the training tool repeats the question at the right time until you remember.

The gamification elements within Perdisco, like positive feedback, keep you motivated and improve your skills in a playful manner.

Perdisco for schools and universities
Perdisco is a digital tool and platform to help you perform better in both subjects. Perdisco is co-developed by a teacher of Ancient Latin & Greek with a MA degree. The tests and exercises are checked, accurate and consist of the necessary learning material used by most schools. Perdisco is divided into three main topics: translation, grammar and culture. All three are essential for learning Ancient Latin and Greek.

The technology in Perdisco
Our software developer with a MSc degree takes great care in continuously optimizing Perdisco’s technology. Therefore, Perdisco runs fast and efficient with little to almost no storage required. In addition Perdisco is able to run on your device without using the internet. So you can learn Ancient Latin and Greek wherever you are.

Ratings and reviews

First off, I absolutely love this app, it's probably the best Latin app available and the best free Ancient Greek app! But I also wanted to point out a couple very minor errors - the English version translates the words 'unda' and 'fluctus' as the Dutch 'golf' instead of the English 'wave!' There are also a couple of minor misspellings like 'devide' instead of 'divide' but the "golf" problem is the only one that gets in the way of comprehension :)

I would prefer the lessons first and foremost. Teach us first. Give us lessons or at the very least vocabulary first so we can learn. Or make it an option, since different people learn in different ways. Thank you for your quick response. Edit: 4 * for now. Edit: Also can you inform me when you have implemented the teaching part, opposed to just the testing please. I just updated hoping the teaching had been included, but it was not. Thank you.

Thoroughly helpful. I'm trying to learn Latin, and it's excellent in enabling me to go over my mistakes and repeat the complete exercise until I've learnt it properly. Best used along with another learning programme or book, but so far, so good. There are a couple of odd words (Dutch, perhaps?) as English translations in the multichoice answers, e.g. "ofter," which is not in standard usage, but otherwise a great app - and free!!
