Online Language Courses

busuu.com offers free online courses in English, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, German, Russian, and French. The classes and resources are not totally free, but the free version is quite comprehensive. One of the best appeals of this website is that it has the feature of video-chat between members through which learners can practice speaking with nativer speakers or get help from others as well as help others. This site is great for both self-learners of English and teachers who can get useful teaching ideas from it. Before joining the site, you can make a video tour of its online classes which incorporate great features of computer-mediated learning/teaching.
