Learn Language is Easy

Speaking a foreign language is a huge asset in the global economy these days but if time is an issue, you can learn the language of your choice online at liveMocha (www.livemocha.com), a social networking website that brings language learners and native speakers together.

Launched in September last year, the website has since brought together more than 130,000 registered users from 212 countries and territories. It currently offers lessons in English, Chinese, French, German, Hindi and Spanish.

What makes it different from conventional online language lessons is that instead of simply learning to and regurgitating what you hear, you can practice what you’ve learnt with online tutors and native speakers and get feedback in real time on your progress.
