LiveMocha!

Posted by: angel 2 Comments »


I recently came across a new online language learning site called Livemocha. I am using it to learn Greek and thought that you might find it useful too. It's a great way to learn new languages and interact with native speakers and tutors in that language.

They have fun courses and exercises for a variety of languages including:

  • English
  • Spanish
  • French
  • German
  • Mandarin Chinese
  • Hindi

...and it's all FREE to join!!

Unfortunately, they don't have Greek courses yet, however, hopefully I can find my way through learning it by finding someone online whose native language is Greek!

Happy learning!

After a long hassle putting a decent logo together. I finally, used the help of the professional - Gulliermo - has done a great job submitting 3 different sketches to choose from. Right now, KwtLinux is developing on schedule and a new forum will be placed pretty soon.

Let's spread the word,
