Hello Rodinhooder friends,
To begin with I will apologise for something that is placed as a link in this Ask note.Its a crude free website hosted on Wix. And given the expertise and hours people put in to develop and design great websites, mine is a novice looking one. Anyway, I would like to come straight to the point now. CultureAlley has been around for a while.However, I was struck by this idea without knowing about them, only to know about them after analysing the T of SWOT.
- Its going to be a crowd sourced platform where Tutors and Learners meet.
- Tutors are people who teach a language.Learners are the ones who wish to learn the language.
- We are going to have learning sessions not exceeding 30 minutes and the entire language learning can be wrapped in 5 hours.We can teach a person to speak basic stuff and the script too in 5 hours.
- The tutor is rated by learners and the pay is decided according to ratings.Initially, the pay is going to be uniform.
- Our role is to prepare content for tutors. Given a tutor has access to content and directions prepared by us, he gets hooked up with a learner over a mobile call.Though the class proceeds mainly within the framework of our content but it gives a chance to learn by listening which is very essential while learning a new language.
- Given greater mobile penetration as compared to data, the platform seems more viable. Data usage is restricted to downloading some slides that need to be shared between the tutor and learner.
- The entire learning experience can create a webbed structure where a learner can be the tuor of another language and the tutor a learner. This social way of learning is engaging and wishes to thrive on a vibrant network of eager knowledge seekers.
So what do the Rodinhooders think about LinguaIndie.Kindly shed some light and your views on this thing.
I am going to add some P.Ses here
P.S:
- Looking for a mentor-Straight from my heart.A one man army now.
- Looking for some RHs to try out the mobile learning approach.
- Its definitely not for people who listen , dream and try to speak French, Spanish etc etc.
- The professional site alongwith a game promoting the thing is planned to be completed by March,2014.
- This is my transition from JustAnotherThinker to a Doer.
- Trying to validate and share expertise on project on Hashtaag platform of RH Paritosh Sharma(https://hashtaag.com/mission/lingua-indie/)
- Trying to get a game going specifically for the promotion of this site.And its going to be fun.Trust me on that !!
