Elevator Pitch-- Writetobefluent.com
People often learn another language by using dry textbooks with fake situations. As the hypothetical dialogues get old, the language learning does, too. Writetobefluent.com is a free language learning tool for people who are tired of making things up and want to learn while being engaged in real-life situations. The site is based on the premise that expressing yourself in writing is vital to achieve fluency in a second language. But, more specifically, writetobefluent.com is community blog that allows native speakers to write in a second language about topics of their choice. Users create an account with basic personal information and then write blog posts about relevant topics such as sports, music, games, politics, hobbies, food, or themselves. The site is based on two way communication between language learners (students) and native speakers (teachers). After a student posts, the teacher posts corrections to their blog post. The student learns from the teacher's corrections and this communication also acts as a segue into further interaction between student and teacher. A message system also allows users to send short emails back and forth to each other. Students also learn from each others mistakes as all blog entires are viewable to the community. Revenue would be generated by selling advertisements on the website.
