Livemocha-learn a language while social networking

Tweet This

I came across this tool while reading the blog Social Web Tools. Livemocha is a social networking site but also you can complete 4 levels of language training in many languages. It looks very promising. I don’t think it looks great above the intermediate level but for getting the basics it looks quite good for a free tool.

Join, be my friend, send me lots of messages, umm you can send me messages but just don’t send lots of silly messages.

If you are going to spend the money, why not buy the grand-daddy of all language learning programs Rosetta Stone. Check out the links below.VVVVVV

    I’m finding it very useful so far!

    Can I put in a word for Esperanto as well?

    I suggest not because it is now a living language but because it has great propaedeutic values as well

    You can see detail on http://www.lernu.net

    Hi all, I help out http://www.edufire.com and invite everyone to browse the site. I have found that livemocha.com is also a great tool for online language learning, but both sites have unique offerings that can aid with your language learning.

    Let me know if you want to try a free one hour session.

    Esperanto is a man-made language, designed with the goal of being a common, international language. It has a group of adherents from around the world (or advocates?) who are quite vocal in its support. That’s about all I know.

    I’ve been debating over the Rosetta stone training materials. can’t quite decide. hmmmm.

    I did find another one, apart from the ones in the comments: http://www.studentteacherexchange.com/ which is completely free and uses chat/video/voice and whiteboards as well. They are new but my guess is they will be booming soon since they charge nothing.
