"The comprehensive language tutorial package developed by Jabra F. Ghneim has proven to be an invaluable tool for students of the language. His work, which involves a vast amount of critical listening and reading question and answer exercises, has proven to be vital to the student that is required to grasp a wide range of global language knowledge. Mr. Ghneim has developed a masterful project that keenly recognizes the necessities for basic and expert understanding of the language. The material is interwoven from subject to subject which enables the student to quickly transcend all subject matter barriers of learning a foreign language."

"Im impressed with this and I do recommend it. It is not a "learn Pashto" app. Its an improvement tool for folks who already have some Pashto. It is very well focused specifically on improving DLPT performance. Casting a wide net in newspapers and internet and reading widely is another approach. But in this app Mr. Ghneim has already cast that wide net for you and collected the material in an easy to use format - plus taken the extra step of constructing DLPT-like questions about the material. He is clearly familiar not only with the kinds of materials that go into a DLPT, but also with the kinds of questions that are constructed around those materials."

This is the first edition of ACE My Language: Pashto, the only mobile app to prepare military, government and college language students for their Defense Language Proficiency Test (DLPT) V in Pashto (also known as Pashtu). The DLPT is a crucial test that measures the language knowledge of people who want to work in the US government with a focus on the Pashto-speaking Middle East. The app prepares students for the test and for their jobs. Guaranteed to increase your score on the exam. Includes up to 150 articles from authentic Pashto sources and corresponding native audio for each passage. This app is used at West Point, The Defense Language Institute, Foreign Service Institute and other military language schools around the country.
This is the ultimate resource you or your students will need to prepare for your job requirements as a translator, analyst or simply to prepare for standard Pashto language tests that examine your listening and reading skills. It is also a great resource for Pashto students in an academic environment or those studying Pashto independently to pass Pashto standard tests as administered by government agencies or academic institutions. Immerse yourself in Pashto like never before to get the results you want and improve your score.
