Today everyone wants their children to be bilingual so for the new year, parents and children can get started on learning a new language for free. The Queens Public Library is offering free language classes through BBC's website in French, Spanish, Italian, German, Chinese and more. You can also follow foreign TV programs and drama to build your skill.
To go through their site visit http://www.queenslibrary.org/, click Library Services A-Z and click Learn a New Language. The BBC site will come up and then make your choice on the language and course you want. I found it was also possible to go right into the site. http://www.bbc.co.uk/languages/
Also for anyone over the age of thirteen, Live Mocha offers online conversation to practice and improve your language skills. They were free but their policy has changed now so check out their site and decide for yourself - http://www.livemocha.com/.
