| Study Chinese | PRINT | | New Course Makes Use of All that Digital Learning Offers |
New York, NY (USA), June 2009 - The Innovative Language Learning Company has announced the launch of Chineseclass101.com, an online learning system that combines audio and video podcasts, mobile apps, digital tools, and more in order to turn 5000 years of Chinese language into an interactive experience on PC, iPod, mobile, and social networks.
Raising the bar and creating something special in podcasting and software applications is nothing new for a company that currently has over sixty million downloads (according to Nielson) of its various educational podcasts and iPhone apps and has been in several of the top ten spots in the iTunes Top 100 Downloads charts for the past three years.
"Chineseclass101 is a place to have an effective and fun experience when learning Chinese, as no one else can combine our range of lessons, interaction, and community", says Peter Galante, CEO of Innovative Language Learning. "Our lessons themselves are a great mix of practical guide and entertainment, while all the time helping you to learn and discover more and more about China and the Chinese language."
Chinese is the fastest growing foreign language globally. There are 250 million people worldwide who study Chinese and 130 million who travel to the country annually. Predictions foresee China becoming the most popular foreign destination globally by 2020.
"Creating content locally in Beijing is a powerful strategic advantage of Chineseclass101. Beijing Chinese is the form of Mandarin Chinese on which the government bases standard Chinese", says David Lancashire, co-founder of ChineseClass101.com. "In addition, we use voice talent from the Central Drama Academy of Beijing, the same school that produced Chinese film stars such as Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi."
www.Chineseclass101.com is now open, with free membership that allows visitors to get started on learning right away. Podcasts are also available on iTunes and are compatible with any Mp3 device.
