lists and grammar rules, but the books, tapes and even CDs are being replaced by email, video chat and social networks.
Livemocha, a Seattle company, has created a website devoted to helping people learn more than 38 languages by exchanging messages over the Internet and then correcting each other?s messages. The lessons, whether they are flashcards, quizzes, audio recordings or written and spoken essays, are delivered through the Internet.
Michael Schutzler, Livemocha’s chief executive (主管), says the websites advantage is the ability to practice with a real person. “The great irony (讽刺) is that even if you have learned a foreign language in the classroom for years, you dont have confidence to go into a restaurant and have a conversation with a foreigner,” he said. The casual connections with real people throughout the world, however brief, are not just fun and surprising but show more about how the language is really used.
Livemocha is now experimenting with a variety of ways that resemble the games on other social websites to motivate people. The flashcard exercises, for instance, are scored, and the totals earned by studying and teaching appear on the users? front page.
Besides, each person can set up a profile (简历) which includes a short description of his age, location and what language he would like to learn. Therefore, if you want to study one language, you will easily find many people who are fluent in it. And an email or two is all it takes to find a study partner.
