Learning a Language is Better with Nulu
Billions of people worldwide speak more than one language in some capacity, but not fluently, and many need or desire to learn another language for both personal and professional reasons. This is a problem addressed by many companies, and a number of English-learning services apply technology to be more effective. Nulu is one startup looking to help, serving as an interactive web platform that helps users learn languages. There are many different ways to do this, but Nulu takes a different approach than most. Simple dictation and repetition have shown to be effective, but Nulu takes that concept and modifies it to be more appealing and interesting in a way that can better keep the attention of the learner. It offers new, interactive content every day in a way that is more engaging than any simple “hear and respond” system or any textbook.
Nulu is a browser-based service with mobile tech support features allowing access on any mobile device as well as PCs. What it offers to make learning easier and more practical is the ability to read news articles in another language, completely at your learning level and pace. There is a small monthly fee and, upon creating an account, you tell Nulu how many articles you would like to read each week and choose from the topics that interest you most. These include politics, food, travel, technology, and many more, each one hundred words or less and all including illustrations.
Nulu incorporates visual and auditory learning, and you can listen to articles in sections or their entirety read by professional voice actors as you follow along. You can set the audio to your own pace to follow along more easily as well. If you have difficulty with a particular word or phrase, you can get a professional translation by hovering over it with your cursor or tapping it. It is easy to use anywhere you are when you have free time, meaning you can access it on your mobile device, home PC, or public computer when you need laptop repair.
Nulu is especially effective for beginners, and the content is initially very basic but interactive and allows you to advance to content that is more advanced. It is currently in use by over one hundred universities, and it offers a service in Mexico and several other countries that enable those fluent in Spanish and English-speakers to have discussions online together. It releases new articles daily, so the content you can choose from is never stuffy, old, or repetitive. Thus, it serves as an engaging experience that you can continue to come back to and learn more from whenever you want. It is clear that, for beginner and intermediate language study, Nulu is one service of which you will want to take advantage.
