megshoe Posted April 6, 2014 Report Posted April 6, 2014 Lang-8 is an absolutely amazing resource for having your writing corrected. You can just just upload anything you've written, in any length, select the language, and other users on the site will correct it -by-line. It's completely free and the community is really nice. I've never waited more than a couple hours to have something corrected, from small paragraphs to full essays. Highly recommend! Quote
Rosa Posted April 6, 2014 Report Posted April 6, 2014 Thanks for this information. It sounds like a great aide for those of us learning a second language. The fact that you have your writing samples been corrected by natives is even greater as it would be more like immersing than just studying from a text book . Quote
megshoe Posted April 8, 2014 Author Report Posted April 8, 2014 No problem! It's definitely a vital tool to make sure you're writing correct and/or natural sentences. It can be easy to think you understand everything because you can complete the textbook exercises, but posting to lang-8 was definitely a wake-up call for me. I'm improved so much through that site!

Rosa Posted April 8, 2014 Report Posted April 8, 2014 I am going to do my first trial soon. I hope that through this forum more people will hear about it and use it as I see it being a great teacher in itself . Quote
Ariane Posted July 24, 2014 Report Posted July 24, 2014 Could you please upload a link for the website? Or is this an app for Android or IOS? My google-fu is failing me... Quote
