Your Spanish teaching thing is really cool. Can you do one for French? There are some countries in Africa where you can probably take advantage of similar wage differences.
- loewenskind 16y agoOne nit though: I had to go through a few links before I found out if it had voice or not. I don't believe in learning by reading (how old were you when you learned to read your native language?) and all I saw on the first page was text. Maybe I should have assumed it would have voice but so many people are hung up on learning a language from reading that that's never a good assumption to make.
- jasonkester 16y agoThanks for that. I'll try to cram that onto the homepage someplace. If it's not obvious to you, it won't be to anybody else.
- loewenskind 16y agoYea, that's why I decided to mention it. I think it's a great idea and really important for learning a language.
- jasonkester 16y agoFrench might well be the next vertical. The plan for now though is to focus on just doing one thing really well. There are plenty of sites that have poured lots of money into doing online tutoring in the general case, and there are plenty of smaller sites that do online Spanish tutoring acceptably. But everybody with funding has thus far gone the way of being generic, so there's a gap waiting for a really good site doing just Spanish. At some point, we'll outgrow it (hopefully), and "French by Moroccans and Guyanans" might be the next one.
