Introducing Mango Languages

Mango is an online language learning system that teaches real conversation skills for practical communication. An interactive database, it provides step by step lesson plans over 70 languages. The database also features ESL course lessons taught in native languages. 

"Mango adapts to your unique learning style, so you pick up on new vocabulary, intuit unfamiliar grammatical structure, and train your pronunciation, all while boosting your cultural IQ. Lessons involve a rich mix of listening and reading activities, so you can make sense of written and spoken contexts" (How Mango Works).

Use Mango as a guest, or sign up for a free profile to save your progress through the language programs. Access Mango from Archer Library's A-Z Database List.
