Thank you so much for the support this month!

The campaign has soared over the $400 mark overnight! At $417 a month, we might just reach the next milestone before May!

Language Transfer is doing so much more than just... what we're doing!

With this model, we set an example of what certain elements of an economy in transition might look like. Personally, I consider that a moneyless system or one of universal income might be the best way to treat our planet kindly... and each other. But that won't likely happen overnight or in an orde...

Hello all! You may have seen we're working on albums of translated songs in the languages we teach! http://www.languagetransfer.org/#!translated-lyrics/c1ud2

Hello all!

Thank you for all your pledges this month! Very soon you'll get a mail calling for your votes for this month, which I'm excited to receive! 

Meanwhile, something just for you guys (Patron supporters).... to the first person who can guess what inspired the Italian image, I'll send a nice goody pack of LT things! :)

These courses of ours are now listened to around 9,000 minutes every 24 hours!%^#

I really believe we're doing something special here, not just because of the awesome 'product', but because how we show things can be done in the way we realise this project together.

We've created something wonderful, something that generates a lot of love and understanding, in broad senses of both words!

Thank you for doing this together, it'd be crap without you! :)

Update Feb/March! (Introduction to Italian & other news)

Despite the obviously complicated relationship with video, I promise to continue giving monthly updates from my face! :)

It’s 6 months since the launch of the Patreon campaign which now brings in $327 a month to help me do the job of 4 people and bring you Language Transfer! smile emoticon (I love it!)

Thank you so much for all your support on this campaign, it really is changing everything... already!

As promised, on midnight 26th (now!) we announce the winning language you have voted for which is (drum roll... I know you saw already)... INTRODUCTION TO ITALIAN!! With 466 votes!

YES (and I know FINALLY!) some more Complete GREEK material!

Tracks 17-20 are here, and 21-25 are coming next week! (and we're still recording!)

Sorry for the wait, but I promise it'll be worth it! :) Not only will you get a big load of audios now in close succession, but a loooot of work has gone into rethinking the structure of and breaking down Greek for you! Greek has never been more accessible!

New message for LT users! Voting, new audio course and pioneer visual material!

As I was recording this we received a donation that put Arabic back on top (still by a hair!)! This is so exciting!

MORE IMPROVEMENTS TO THE CAMPAIGN!

>The next language to be released will be announced on Feb 26th on our 6 month campaign anniversary!

>The $450 milestone now includes work on three languages simultaneously. The new model means that we'll enter the fulltime milestone with a constant string of audio releases! When one language is being researched, another is being tested and a third being released! All of that and a lot more with $700 a month, all of which will be sourced f...

GREAT NEWS!

The next milestone on the Patreon campaign has been updated to include work on publications!

The publications will be for sale until we reach the full-time milestone, when they will be unlocked for free download!

Also, those of you pledging $5+ a month have had early free access to the forthcoming publications added to your rewards and those of you pledging $20+ will get free hardcopies with your goody packs! :)

Hopefully this will help get things movi...

The usership of LT has doubled in the last month, and hopefully that’ll mean more of you are ending up here!

The big push now is to get me (Mihalis!) working full time on the free material of LT! What this'd mean is courses getting even better, and LT producing at least 4 courses a year!

From there, the focus will be on raising the funds to build a team! And with a team, absolutely everything changes! We’ll soar through the courses you vote for, and take the world by storm with new v...
