New Online Blended Learning Program Revolutionizes Language Learning

Transparent Language's Transparent Connect™ Online Courses Blend Cutting Edge Language-Learning Software and Live Instruction

Nashua, N.H., September 7, 2011 - Transparent Language, Inc. announces the release of Transparent Connect, a complete language-learning solution that marries the two most important elements to foreign language acquisition: personal instruction and effective courseware. Now language learners are able to participate in one of the most unique online language courses available.

Transparent Connect provides a True Blended Learning™ experience. In 2009, the Department of Education reported that "blended learning" - in which face-to-face instruction is paired with online courses - produces better results than traditional learning or online learning alone. Combining top-of-the-line courseware with personal coaching from real, live instructors, Transparent Connect enables language learners to receive a better-than-classroom language education from the comfort of their own homes.

"Language learning strategies have changed, and the world needs a fast and effective solution," said Michael Quinlan, CEO of Transparent Language. "It is a victory for language learners everywhere to have Transparent Connect available."

Transparent Connect is offered in three different program options, all of which are accessible online, available directly from web-browsers.

For learners searching for the complete language-learning solution that blends personalized attention from experienced instructors with dozens of hours of supplemental learning materials, Transparent Connect Classroom courses are the perfect choice.
For learners searching for a language-learning program that gives access to the highest-quality learning materials, the option of speaking with an experienced, private language coach, and the freedom to work at their own pace, then Transparent Connect Self-Guided courses are the choice for them.
For learners looking for a quick way to either start a new language or refresh a language they've at one time studied, Transparent Connect Workshops are an ideal option.

With multiple program options, flexible scheduling, and an ever growing number of available languages - all available directly from a web browser - Transparent Connect offers an option for every language learner.

Pricing for Transparent Connect programs starts at $119. Program features include:

Personal coaching from instructors
The new Essentials™ courseware comes with over 50 hours of self-guided language-learning materials
Byki Online supplemental, vocabulary-building learning material
