 * online language learning is very trendy these days
 * provides a way to learn at a self pace
 * great for schools with a large ESOL population
 * easy to use
 * has a great You Tube resource to walk you through it
 * for those who need a face to face instructor it might be difficult.
 * Students could go on this site and class, pair with students from other languages and teach each other
 * Teachers who are taking Rosetta Stone now could supplement with this tool
 * Use to supplement when studying other regions of the world
 * Supplement World Language classes
 * I cannot see any threat other than possibly a resentment from World Language teachers who might feel that they are being replaced.
