A friend recently forwarded an article from the New York Times called "The Benefits of Failing at French". (7/15/14) (Seems crazy, right? Failing? It's an interesting article about the benefits of learning a new language... just trying.) She also had told me how much she liked the new language learning resource at the library called "Transparent Language". Our language books and audio resources get a lot of use at the library so we knew people around here were interested in learning languages. Now it's easier than ever. The new online resource can be used from home 24/7 with your library card. You just need to create an account. You can even download an app and use it on the go anywhere, even when you travel. But even if you aren't traveling try learning a new language. According to the NYT article, it isn't necessary to take an expensive course. Try Transparent Language! It's free!!
