description Livemocha Overview
Livemocha was a web-based language learning platform launched in 2007 that combined structured coursework with a global social network. The service allowed users to complete interactive grammar and vocabulary lessons while submitting written and audio exercises for review by native speakers in a reciprocal peer-review system. It was acquired by the software company Rosetta Stone in 2013 before ultimately shutting down its operations in 2016. Livemocha was designed for individuals seeking an interactive alternative to traditional software by practicing conversational skills with a worldwide community.
