In addition to their language exchange program italki.com is offering a new service since last week. You can now apply as a language teacher or tutor.
Teachers are defined as professionel instructors who already worked as language teachers, tutors are native speakers who share their knowledge on a paid basis, so basically the paid version of a language exchange. Continue reading
Yesterday I was testing the brand new out of Beta 1:M (one to many) classes and I have to say: it was totally worth waiting for it.

You have a student who wants to learn English with you. Normally, you would go to your car, drive through the town, get into traffic jams, arrive too late, spent money on fuel, loose time on the way…

Wouldn’t it be great?… But why would?… It IS great! Continue reading
Livemocha.com is one of the social language learning websites on the internet. They were one of the first platforms that followed the approach of language exchange with a part where you study on your own with vocabulary drills and and repetitive exercises and a part in which both oral and written exercises are corrected by your Livemocha friends.

After a long beta test with its community EduFire.com officially launched its new classes system last tuesday.
The approach is quite unique. The only website that can offer the teacher paid classes with more than one student is WiZiQ.com. The problem with WiZiQ.com is though that the scheduling system is a bit tricky.
What are the new possibilities for us teachers? Continue reading

One of my subscribers of my YouTube Channel asked my the following question.
Hi,
Could you recommend to me the best way to memorising and learning German vocabulary? Because of my lack of vocabulary I am afraid to speak German. I would be very appreciative if you could tell me how I can learn vocabulary and retain it in my memory. Would this be the same with German verbs?
Many thanks!
Hello world 
Just wanted to let you know, that I am working on the relaunch of this site. During the last month I was thinking what I can do with this domain. Finally I decided to use it as one of my future “main” sites in the net.
I want to post about how to teach online and, of course, there will be still videos and pictures of my life in France.
So stay tuned. And if you haven’t already, join me on twitter: twitter.com/kirstenwinkler
