Everybody talks about learning online, but does it really work?
Yes, an online course, if designed and taught properly, can be almost as good as a face-to-face course, with the added advantage that you can have the class without ever leaving your home or office and wasting time in the traffic etc. So how does the Online Course work? Very simple. All we need is a computer, a headset, and a fast Internet connection (ADSL etc.) We just sit at our computers, me in my flat in Lille (in the north of France) and you in your home or office anywhere in the world. We put on our headsets, and log into Skype. (There are other messaging services but Skype has the best sound quality.) It's like a language classroom (a private one of course). You and I can speak with each other just like in a classroom. We can also type things for each other. We can even use an online whiteboard to draw pictures if necessary. We can do almost all of the standard activities of a language class: conversation, listening, reading and writing... all without ever leaving our chairs. Interested?
