Free foreign language material from Peace Corps


Recommended Posts

Every Monday, I receive an email newsletter from About.com about Distance Learning. The email that just arrived has a link to this article, which may be of interest to people looking for Foreign Language instruction materials. http://distancelearn.about.com/od/isitforyou/fl/Use-Peace-Corps-Training-Material-to-Learn-Languages-for-Free.htm?utm_source=exp_nl&utm_medium=email&utm_term=list_distancelearn&utm_campaign=list_distancelearn&utm_content=20150601

What a great resource! Wish they had German though, as that is ds's foreign language of choice.

 

Probably not a lot of Peace Corps volunteers in German speaking areas... 

 

Which is interesting. Did Germany not get into the whole colonial empire building? It seems to have had a lot of power on the European continent but not the overseas influence of Britain or France...

The good news is that it's pretty easy to find other resources for learning German. Now if only they'd had Dutch... the options for that are pretty limited. Not that I expected them to, what with NL being a first world country not much in need for Peace Corps help.
