Ever wondered how to help your students maximize their potential in the CAE Keyword Transformations exercise? Me too, that’s why I have designed a smartphone app for the iPhone to help students do exactly that. Check it out for FREE on the app store now. Like it on Facebook and please share the love 🙂

Hi there, you made an excellent job with this wonderful App.
But I have to warn you that there is a little mistake in one of the CAE transformations exercise. Specifically an inversion: “No sooner … THEN” In this inversion, that is, using a comparative, we have to use THAN, otherwise uses would be purely a mistake.
I would appreciate if you could fix that little problem, because I am still thinking about buying the other books in the CAE as well as looking forward for both FCE and CPE Apps. But not before you fix that as I might as well think it could have issues there too.

Hi Mike
Really glad that you like the app! If you would be so kind as to review it on the app store that would be really appreciated!
Re ‘no sooner than’ you’re right of course that is a mistake and for sure I will fix it on the next update, which is coming soon. Thanks for pointing it out!
With regards to the other books, well I hope there aren’t any more mistakes. I went through them very, very carefully and had everyone of them checked by fellow native speaker teacher/trainers. But it’s always possible, just like there are always one or two mistakes in any given course book. If there are more mistakes though of course I will correct them and update the app/pdf 🙂
Cheers.

Great app! Really helped me improve my score on this part of the exam.
I really recommend this app. I had no idea how to get better at this part of the exam until I downloaded this app and started practicing with it every day on the metro/bus/train/tram (CHOOSE ONE).
Fantastic app – be sure and check out the tip sheet as well available at http://www.caetransformations.com
I went from scoring 0-2 points to hitting 12-14 by using this app. Be sure to get all the booklets – you’ll need them!!
Thanks so much!!
