Testimonials
Yesterday I was in Barnes and Noble and this poor girl would have needed a dolly to carry all the Spanish verb and vocabulary books she was about to buy. I asked her if she was just beginning to learn Spanish. I thought maybe she was a teacher and was buying all of these books for her students. She said that she was a first time learner, so I interceded. I told her to put all the books back and to get a piece of paper and write down www.LingQ.com, I told her that I was fluent in Spanish but unfortunately learned it the way she was about to.
I also shared that I have used your system to learn French and Chinese and made more progress than in 10 years of formal Spanish classes. She put all of the books back and walked out excited to use LingQ. It made me chuckle because she went from anxiety with an armful of books to empowered as I shared with her the natural way to learn a language. I certainly don't want to put Barnes and Noble out of business but even more I don't want her to be frustrated with the way that language has been taught. Thought you would enjoy!
