Yes, We Have Mango!
By scottcampbell | March 24, 2010
No, not for eating, nor for its tropical juices… and not the flamboyant character from Saturday Night Live, either.
The library’s Mango is a new kind of variety… an online language learning system! Mango teaches real conversation skills through fun and engaging interactive lessons, right on your computer, anytime you like! The Mango system is completely web-based and remotely accessible, so you can learn anywhere you have an internet connection — at the library, a coffee shop, or even at home in bed. Choose from Arabic, Chinese, Dari, Farsi, French, German, Hebrew, Hindi, Irish, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Pashto, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, Tagalog, Thai, Turkish, Urdu, Vietnamese, and English as a Second Language (ESL), in different levels of fluency. Best of all, with Langdon Library’s subscription now in place, it’s free for Newington residents… All you need is your library card number!
To get started, simply click on the Mango logo here in this posting. Follow the onscreen directions and you’ll be parlez vous francaising, sprechen sie deutching, or practicing just about any language you like, in no time!

I tried it at home and it is super easy. To learn and the method in which they use to teach you. Thanks for this free service
