Language Learning Online?

I love learning, and I really have a passion for languages.

Does anyone know if there's some good, (and free) language learning pages out there? 

I'd like to learn some more Dutch. My guy is from Holland... I can already read Dutch pretty well but it could be fun to actually learn to speak the language as well.

Free? I don't know of any...I wouldn't mind to find one myself, but so far, I've had no such luck. You can try out Babbel.com, I suppose. Not that expensive. And if you don't want to pay, it's always an option. Granted, you'll have less content, but...
Wish I could help out more.

When I was in my "french phase" I found an interesting website. It's called Duolingo and it was free if I remember well! It was quite a basic course (first you learn some simple words and sentences) but I had fun. There was also an app for smartphone ahah

Take a look https://www.duolingo.com/

I used a few online pages to prepare for my holidays in Italy. There seem to be similar pages for Dutch. I don't know them, but maybe you can check them out.

Re: Language Learning Online?

Thank you SO much, as soon as I return from my Easter holidays I'll have a good look at these links! 

I think I'll have fun learning this language! I tried to learn Irish some years back... a teacher had filmed his classes and put them on youtube and even put the papers online too. I just never found the time then.

But this I will make time for!
