Review

Livemocha was named as one of TIME’s ‘50 best websites of 2010’: “Livemocha offers instructional tutorials and exercises in some 30 different languages, but the service's real value is in its community. It's a social approach to learning a language, and one that's cheaper than pricey software like Rosetta Stone.” www.TIME.com

The New York Times has also praised Livemocha’s modern approach: “the Internet, with its unparalleled ability to connect people throughout the world, is changing the way that many people learn languages. Casual connections with real people throughout the world, however brief, are not just fun and surprising but reveal more about how the language is really used.” New York Times online, July 28th 2010

“When I have to do an exercise and submit it to the world, when I know that real people are going to look at it and comment on it, it really jacks up my brain.” Orlando Kelm, Languages Professor, University of Texas.

“Livemocha offers a perfect combination of cutting edge technology and language learning. It makes learning a new language fun and convenient. My students love the role play feature.” Michele Mesnik, Marketing Professor, Brazilian Business School

“A fantastic way to learn languages and make friends.” Sonia Mole, livemocha.com user

“Livemocha is an inexpensive and a great way to learn a new language and make new friends.” LaToya Gibson, livemocha.com user
