Well it’s true that my E at GCSE German hasn’t served me too well over the years… so why start again?

Well… this is why:

I came across the above TED video over half a year ago and was so blown away by the concept that I applied to be a BETA tester straight away.

And this morning I received an invitation to start translating the internet into German or Spanish.

It’s basically amazing; I can already say “Hallo, Ich bin aus Leeds”.

For those of you who haven’t yet, I suggest you go straight away to www.duolingo.com.
