Learn a New Language at Zipidee

April 8, 2008 - PRLog -- Zipidee, an online digital marketplace, announced that instructional foreign language sessions designed to help students of all levels improve their pronunciation, vocabulary, and conversational communication skills are now available on-demand. The videos teach a variety of foreign languages, including Spanish, Italian, French, Russian, Japanese, and American Sign Language. Zipidee shoppers can learn at their own speed and benefit from the effectiveness of these engaging visual learning programs.

Several of the videos come from Standard Deviants, a division of Goldhil Entertainment that produces educational videos that teach concepts through humorous sketches.

An excellent introduction for beginners and tourists, the Standard Deviants’ Spanish instructional video series lays out the basics, starting out with the A-B-C’s in Spanish 1: Alphabet / Pronunciation and working up to everyday conversation in Spanish 7: Weather.  For more advanced students, the Advanced Spanish video series provides clear and easy to follow instruction that will take their Spanish to the next level, covering everything from verb tenses and prepositions to informal commands.

Customers can prepare for a trip to Paris with the Standard Deviants’ French language instruction series. The video entitled French 4: Survival French teaches travelers everything they need to survive in France, covering the basics of ordering at a restaurant to conversing with locals. More advanced students can challenge their skills by taking a stab at complex verb tenses and pronouns in French 6: Pronouns and Past Tense.

Also available on the site is an American Sign Language instructional video series, entitled Easy Sign Language.  Viewers can follow professional sign language interpreter Renee Moore through her simple and fun instructional program to learn communication skills such as the alphabet, greetings, and finger-spelling words.
