I think Vera’s e-mail is a good idea. I joined at the end of February and remember receiving an e-mail from LingQ offering support if ever I needed it. At the time I was fairly overwhelmed by the site, but saw all those wonderful languages to be learnt and so stayed. I found the initial tutorial in a way too fast, I had to keep going back to it whenever I was stuck somewhere. I am one of your oldest (in age) members and not overly famililar with forum usage etc, but learnt a lot about best to use LingQ - and my own computer - from following the hints and tips you all shared in the forum. I changed my deeply engrained habit of starting with, and focusing on, grammar. The most important thing for me that I got out of LingQ is that I am beginning to overcome the fear of failure which has plagued me since childhood. I am more open to new experiences AND I am learning a language or four. My recommendation would be: 1. A short tutorial which can be accessed from anywhere in the system, whichever page I am using. 2. A “personal” e-mail signed by ALL the tutors available for the first language chosen (this way you introduce the element of personal choice), mentionioning links to material for the various levels. This e-mail to be sent out fairly quickly on signing up. Any further language would trigger the same/a similar language. 3. Steve’s links.
