Doesnt work! (iPad Mini 3 iOS 8.3)

So I press the little button where its suppose to play the word for you to repeat, most of time it just saids a small bit of the word or nothing at all (example: "Merci" it just says "Ma"). Ive check all the settings within the app, checked the volume, etc. on my iPad, so it should be sounding just fine. Another thing is the part where youre suppose to repeat the word - you have to repeat it IMMEDIATELY after it saids the word, and you have shout when saying it as well repeating it quickly because the mic shuts off fast. It does this even though I have the settings in the app for my mics sensitivity set as high as 100%. Not only this app is useless, its frustrating and not helpful. A bad teacher indeed. App deleted.
