Learning Languages Online - Verbalplanet.com Brings Learning a Foreign Language to Life with Skype

Sept. 30, 2010 - PRLog -- Learning a foreign language is all about practice, which is why anyone with a desire to speak a second language with a high degree of fluency will benefit from the service offered by Verbalplanet.com, the leading online language training website. Their online language classes are a great way to get all of the benefits of one to one language training and tuition without any of the hassles of travelling, large class sizes or lack of an available language tutor; putting Verbalplanet.com at the forefront of the shift towards learning languages online.

At the heart of Verbalplanet's solution is a belief that learning a language is all about real people engaging in real conversation. All lessons undertaken through Verbalplanet.com are 100% interactive with a tutor lead approach which focuses on developing the learner's verbal communication skills. Tutors and students can also share electronic materials and documents through Skype before, during or after the lesson.

"Learning over the web creates an interactive and immersive experience for a student that’s not possible with traditional self study methods. Online language lessons build confidence and help bring learning a language to life. A student that lacks confidence in their own ability will thrive under the guidance of an online language tutor." says Andy Moore of Verbalplanet.com.

Verbalplanet.com operates around a market based format so students have the ability to shop around and select an online language tutor according to a range of criteria including price, location, available lesson times and feedback from previous students. Included with every teacher listed on Verbalplanet.com is a profile of their teaching background, qualifications and teaching approach, which allows the user to get to know a potential language teacher before booking lesson time. The availability of free trial lessons by many of the tutors listed on the site also means that it is possible to evaluate the service for free before committing to buying further lesson time.

"One of the biggest benefits of online language courses is that distance is not a barrier to education and the internet can provide users with a truly unique experience. For example, using Verbalplanet.com anyone learning French can take online French lessons from the comfort of their own home with a private French tutor who may live in Paris.” Adds Moore.

One to one online language tuition also enables the tutor to develop a course of lessons specifically tailored to each individual student's needs and objectives making Verbalplanet.com a flexible and individual solution for anyone wishing to learn a language for work, pleasure or family needs. Verbalplanet.com also allows students the flexibility to schedule and reschedule online language lessons around work or family commitments using a personal online tuition diary.

In addition to their online language courses, Verbalplanet.com also provides extensive supplemental material, including a range of audio lessons for MP3 players covering most of the world's major languages, structured language courses in MP3 format for French, Spanish, German, Italian, Mandarin and more, together with a range of online or desktop language dictionaries, making any student's quest to learn a language a smooth and convenient one.
