Hello teachers! After our partner Egbert told you about something coming up in Myngle, I also want to do the same and share some news with you.

I have a great inside scoop!! I’m not sure if my Myngle colleagues will allow me to say this on our blog yet, but I’m adventurous and I’ll share the secret just with you.

As you know, Myngle from day 1 has offered to teachers a Virtual Classroom well equiped with Skype integration and a file sharing tool. This has allowed teachers to give lessons enriched with slides that are part of full courses.

But, our users have requested and we have attended their wishes. We will soon have a beautiful, powerful, and feature full Virtual Classroom solution for all teachers! This Virtual Classroom will empower teachers and students’ full interactivity in the lesson. Besides file sharing and Skype integration it’ll have:

• Annotation tools right on top of the lesson slides or with a blank whiteboard (so users can draw or write real-time);
• Video feed (teachers can turn on/off when they wish to interact visually with the student);
• Integrated chat;
• Better support for multiple students;
• and some more features you’ll be even more amazed!!

Sorry, but I can’t tell everything just yet. If I do our team won’t let me write on our blog anymore

Wait a bit longer and we’ll show you our wonderful new Virtual Classroom.

Hi all,

In the 6 months of Myngle’s life we have learned a lot from you, Mynglers, on how to improve your platform. As there is no language platform alike, we really had to build Myngle from scratch. Of course we have experienced founders from eBay and Berlitz, but nevertheless in the last 6 months we got such great feedback for improvements that we started a redesign in parallel.

We are almost ready with the redesign, which will go online in the next couple of weeks. However today we want to give you a sneak review of the new face of Myngle, just click below and tell us what you think.

By the way, our ‘incrowd Mynglers’ were already informed about the redesign last week. You want to be one of the incrowd Mynglers and be the first to get updated about new features? Let me know via mail on egbert at myngle dot com because , boy, we have some nice things coming for you.

Stay tuned as this summer we don’t relax in the sun. We are creating something beautiful here !

Egbert

Ahlan wa sahlan

My name is Hala (Known as  Masreya on Myngle ), I am one of the certified Arabic and English teachers on Myngle ( and proud to be )

I was born in UAE, which I believe has effected me for eternity , growing up there, I saw all nationalities everyday , so I was able to learn how to speak with different Arabic dialects fluently before I was even 7 years.

When I was 4 years old I had started learning English.  I was very lucky to be taught by American teachers which helped me too acquire the American accent.

 At the age of fourteen I moved to Egypt ( my country), where I continued my education. I have started learning more languages French, Italian, Spanish and now just very little Hebrew.

 I believe always that I am dedicated to teaching. I feel that I own the world when I am in my class. I feel so happy when I find the result of my efforts.

I have been working as an online teacher since I was 19 years old. I have been teaching standard Arabic to non speakers. At the beginning I was just doing that in order to know more people and meet different cultures. It is only during the last 4 years, I have worked for a Language school in Egypt. I am teaching both Egyptian Colloquial and Standard Arabic. I managed to be a Senior Instructor in a short time.

 Through these years I had the chance to absorb and understand different cultures. I became also able to recognize the variable problems that each student could face.

I am also able now to deduce the common mistakes between the non speakers that helped me a lot in writing my book.

I have worked also as a part time English teacher for the non speakers. I found it also so interesting

I can not ignore my experience with kids. I have been teaching English for children 8 years now.  It supported me a lot as I am over the moon when I see my children speak English with a very nice Egyptian accent J.

 since day one, Myngle has proven to be a new revolution in communication, the simplicity and the effectiveness it offers both he teachers and the students are brilliant, now I’m able to do the job ilove and so passionate about, from my house, with my own material , under my own conditions and at the time that both me and the student think its better, the non stop help and consultation offered , help desk and the members of MYngle ( whom i consider as my family ) are doing everything beyond duty to make sure it becomes the best it can be, and even more….

Myngle offers multiple choices, revolutionary technology, to provide the best life online courses for our students, better quality and more facilites through Myngle.

 Well , enough about me for now, any other questions please feel free to contact me through my teacher profile page on Myngle: http://www.myngle.com/user/profile/index/id/28

Hi all,

I haven’t been writing on the blog for long, with the bad excuse that my colleagues were doing a great job here and I was busy with many other things.

But there is one experience I want to share with you, not as Myngle’s founder, but as student myself. I think it is important, as it reflects a similar experience of my friends, other Mynglers, and many students.

Not so long ago, I decided to restart the old idea of learning Mandarin. I knew there were enough good teachers on Myngle, that I could choose the one right for me. I needed to have somewhat the program adapted to my needs: an obsolete few months of ineffective study much too long ago; which translates in an almost completely forgotten memory of words I had learned with DVDs.

I must admit that the first step was not easy. Even if Myngle was born from my own dream, the idea of choosing a teacher and having to expose my incredibly poor Mandarin level made me nervous. I did not feel as a Myngle’s manager, but as an insecure new student: “Will I be able to say something, anything at all in Chinese? Will I be able to understand what the teacher says, and remember it?”

The first lesson was a discovery. I must say that it felt completely new to me, even if I know Myngle very well. The experience was really exciting. I was finally going to learn Mandarin.

I liked the idea that my teacher -Mr. Yin- was located so many kilometers far away in China, while we were communicating directly as we were neighbors. At the end of the lesson I was completely euphoric. I was the proud owner of my first corrected Chinese sentences and a teacher all for me, 100% dedicated to listening and talking and helping me learning.

I decided to put all my commitment and find the time in my crazy working agenda to learn my new language twice per week. But I must say that the reality of being entrepreneur kicks in every single week: too much to do, always more work then hours in a day, sometimes it is difficult to find even one hour to put my head on something completely different. Before each lesson, I feel this insecure sense of the lesson coming up. I look at the clock, and the thousand things to do, then at my Myngle’s message who gently invites me to my class. Mr. Yin is always there, patiently waiting for me, even when for some meetings I am running a bit late.

But the magic is that at the end of each lesson I am so enthusiastic and full of energy that I start going around the office smiling, incredibly proud of the new sentences I have just learned. One hour of private lesson is so intense that the progresses are visible and very encouraging. At the end of each lesson I know I want to continue. I know that I have really made progresses, and I am proud of it.

This I wanted to share with you. Because it is not only you who, before starting a lesson, feel insecure or too busy or just do not feel to make the effort. Well… I have it also. But believe me, after each lesson I get so much energy and enthusiasm that the rest is all forgotten.

I know I am going to learn.

Hello teachers! Soon Myngle will be releasing a couple of new features to make it even easier for students to find the perfect teacher and course for them. In other words, we will make it easier for students to find you!

But, for students to be able to find you we need your help:

You can start preparing now! How?

1. Please go to your Profile edit page and make sure that ALL fields are filled out with as much information as possible. We have recently added some more fields to your profile, so please be sure to really check all of the profile fields.
2. Next, please go to your My Courses page and click on “Update” if the link is displayed (for shared courses only) or, simply click on “Edit” and make sure that ALL of the description fields of your courses are correctly filled out.

As you know, the only teachers that are visible to students are those with uploaded lessons and slides within each lesson (at least 1 lesson with slides needs to be present on your profile).

Plus, if you make sure your courses and profile are very well described, they will find you even quicker!

If you have any questions, please let us know or request your free consultation session.

Hi Mynglers,

Please join me in welcoming another new member of the Myngle team, Michael Vissers. See below for his introduction in his own words.

First let me introduce myself.  I am Michael Vissers  and 57 years of age .  I studied linguistics at the University of Leiden(NL)  and did  a Master at the University of Nottingham(UK). I work actually at the Department of Economics of a large Polytechnic. 

I joined Myngle in April on a one- day- a-week basis.  I had read the heartbreaking story of Marina Tognetti , who founded the company, on her struggle to find a teacher of Chinese and the hardship to comply with the rigid timetable of classes. 

So far I have done some market research on the way students experience synchronous online language instruction. As a spin off I could also suggest some improvements to make to  the website. I am also working on the promotion of Myngle and I get acquainted with the system myself as a user.

The eye-opener that technology can help to facilitate communication  I had  in 2001 while on summer holiday in Brittany.  I watched an IBM commercial on one of the French TV channels that still intrigues me. The storyboard was like this: we see the living room of a penthouse and at the background a man is shaving himself . Then the phone rings and his teenage daughter picks up the phone.  We hear a male voice that in rapid Arabic communicates something unintelligible.  After the call, the girl pushes a button on the phone. Next thing we hear is the translation of the call. It turns out that the business meeting her dad was supposed to have that morning was cancelled.  Finally we see that she passes this message to  her dad, who is still in the bathroom.
We are in 2008 now and still miles away of what IBM had in mind seven years ago. This year is coined  the International Year of the Languages by UNESCO.  Due to globalization the number of contacts in  foreign languages keep increasing vigorously and with it, the need to brush up languages we learned at school or to start with a brand new one.
Fortunately,  we are in the Internet age now with broadband connections and  hot spots all over the place. Today we can learn almost any language we want or need to learn with the teacher of our choice at a competitive price at the time that suits us best.
That is where Myngle steps in.  Real life communication with someone who not only speaks the language but who also knows the culture is fun. Once you  get the taste of it you want to continue since you learn an awful lot even in one lesson.  On average it takes you two or three sessions to get  familiar with  Skype and Myngle classroom. After this, on-line language learning is a snap. At least that is my experience, brushing up French and German. 

Michael Vissers
