Video and Voice-over combined creates a unique service to learn Spanish. InterLangua provides language tutors to tutor you or your students in real-time, through video conferencing and using voice-over providing a new delivery method to learn a language.
Currently used at Duke University, Marist College and the University of Texas Medical Branch, this new service provides human interaction via the Internet, allows for one-on-one learning, along with an authentic learning experience.
"InterLangua's tutoring service does not require any proprietary hardware. The tutoring session is created in a standard internet browser. It includes Instant Messaging and a shared whiteboard. It is available to any school or individual with a broadband internet connection."
"It is the quality of the tutors that will be most important in the long run. The technology is just the delivery vehicle for these college educated, experienced professionals," said Peter Spevacek.
The technology is just the delivery tool that allows us to do things in a different way, the tutors are the most important aspect of this delivery method.

Has anyone ever used Interlangua?
How is the video quality?
I didn't think video chat online was good enough quality to do something like this.
Doesn't the video lag behind the audio?
The whole point about their software is that the audio and video are in sync. The video goes at 20 frames per second. So no, video does not lag behind audio.
My university uses Interlangua for Business spanish and I am very much impressed with the quality of their audio and video.
