The social way to learn a language.

Globalization has inspired in more people than ever a desire to learn new languages, yet the means to learn those languages is firmly rooted in the past. Enter Livemocha—an alternative to sitting in classrooms, watching books gather dust, or futzing with outdated CD-ROMs. This first-of-its-kind, web-based language learning solution, makes natural use of social marketing technology to integrate instructional content with a global community of tutors and learners. Its engaging, interactive format helps people communicate across borders, languages, and cultures to gain true proficiency. By unlocking the power of new digital technologies, it gives users the kind of multicultural learning experience that was previously possible only by traveling abroad. Launched in 2007, Livemocha has rapidly built a community of over a million users from 200 countries.
