Learning to write and speak a foreign language correctly requires having somebody to correct your grammar and usage errors. Otherwise you may learn a substandard version of the language with deep-rooter mistakes and incorrect usages that are hard to get rid of.

A popular and tried-and-true way to learn languages involves writing texts in a foreign language on a daily basis and reading them aloud to a native speaker, who will correct any mistakes.

Our project, http://www.correctmytext.com, offers an absolutely free way for native speakers of different languages to share their knowledge.

The website interface currently supports ten of the most widely used languages: English, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Chinese, Korean, and Japanese. If you are learning any of these languages, feel free to register and upload any text of yours that you need corrected.

Native speakers or language professionals will review your text and correct all errors of style or grammar free of charge. You can also request a sound recording of the spoken version of your corrected text that will let you hear the subtleties of pronunciation by a native speaker.

The website offers opportunities to meet and communicate with native speakers via internal mail.

Hi Ms. Yokum,

I have also checked out and used livemocha.com…I’m trying to brush-up on my Spanish for my career. I live in San Diego, CA. and I’m realizing more and more how important this language is down here. In addition to livemocha.com I have also been using http://www.edufire.com. I have been actively taking tutoring sessions via video chat and I’m finding this technique to be very useful and educational. I like the one-on-one attention I get from these sessions. This site also offers language flashcards and videos…along with a pretty active forum community! I’m meeting people from all over the world and new languages (Italian along with my Spanish)

Check it out I think it’s a great site
