Thats a pretty cool game. I think it has the potential to be extremely effective given the students knowledge of basic grammar.

Absolutley, I think that it helps you to further recognize words and phrases in proper context. I love foreign films either way but I like to use them as language/ conversational tools.

I would have to say: English- because of how universal it is Spanish- Love the culture French- Lovely language Italian- Food Mandarin Chinese- Business practical

My language goals for the upcoming year hopefully are attainable. lol I wish to complete a TEFL program first and foremost. I know its not necessary but I hope to use this for income when I travel. Next goal is to travel to Panama and secure a job. This will immerse me in the language and culture while getting paid! (score) I hope to be an intermediate Spanish speaker by the years end.

Hello, I am trying to learn Spanish as well. Someone suggested that I turn the language setting on my phone to Spanish. It has actually helped me to learn key basic words. Maybe you should give it a try. Its a good alternative if you live in an area where you cannot be fully submerged in the culture.
