Mango Languages is the fast, easy, and most effective way to learn to speak a foreign language!

Mango is an online language learning system that teaches real conversation skills for practical communication. Through interactive lessons, Mango makes learning a new language incredibly effective.

Mango’s unique methodology copies the way people learn when surrounded by a foreign culture – through practical conversation. Every lesson incorporates vocabulary, pronunciation, grammar and culture, each of which is critical to communicate in a foreign language. At the same time, you’ll be increasing your ability to actually USE what you learn, with a variety of critical thinking and memory exercises. You’ll learn how those pieces can be rearranged and combined to make new thoughts, new conversations, and even more practical communication!

The Mango system is completely web-based and remotely accessible, so you can learn anywhere you have an internet connection.  Choose from 36 guided language experiences, 14 English as a second language experiences, and different levels of fluency.  All you need is a Brookings Public Library card.

Mango is built to be both effective and fun.  In no time at all, you'll be able to navigate all sorts of everyday situations — get directions, order a meal, make new friends — the possibilities are endless!
