Making Curriculum Pop

It would be interesting to hear what you language educators think about this website:

fluentfuture.com

from their "about us page"...

fluentfuture is a community-based language exchange platform. You can learn languages for free by using our database to make contact with members who want to learn your language or you can choose to pay for lessons by a teacher accredited by the fluentfuture rating system for individual lessons.

We now have 11,000+ members who aggregately speak 25 different languages and the number continues to grow rapidly by the day.

We aim to minimise the cost of learning a new language by supporting language exchange and by encouraging online tutoring by professional teachers & volunteers through readily available 3rd party tools such as Skype.

Language exchange not only reduces the hassle & travel costs compared to traditional face to face tuition, it can form a basis for relationships of genuine reciprocity where students are taught by first language speakers from other countries.

As for online tutoring, students can be taught by qualified professionals who then have the opportunity to earn competitive & internationally aligned rates for their services.

As an example, it is possible to learn Spanish from Maria, a college teacher in Mexico who charges US$ 5.00 per hour. This provides fair compensation for her and is much cheaper compared to face to face tuition in other parts of the world. In return, the student receives first rate customised classes from a qualified Spanish teacher.

Using the People page, and Search filters, you can enter what you are prepared to pay per hour and the age and sex of your ideal teacher,look at the teaching materials they have uploaded and review their student feedback to see what other members have had to say about their teaching.

We hope you will find fluentfuture to be increasingly useful as we continue to improve our services & offers.

If you have any feedback, please let us know!
