<p class="MsoNormal">Several years ago we closed out Language Lab because use of the lab was not having any impact on student success but we kept the fee and purchased Rosetta Stone only to find out later it was not meeting our students’ needs either. We were
just starting to being searching for other options when Covid hit and, of course, that project got pushed aside.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">We teach Spanish, French, and German, but we have students speak, Japanese, Ukrainian, Russian, and Spanish who are also learning English so it would be great if we had something that covered multiple languages. Any recommendations as we
get started again? <o:p></o:p></p>
