LanguageZen effectiveness study...?

Postby Cainntear » Fri Feb 24, 2017 3:17 pm

Howdy,

I'm trying to find a study that LanguageZen claims shows that users can expect to get the equivalent of a semester worth of university study in 25 hours on their site.

They hired Roumen Vesselinov. the same guy that was first hired by Rosetta Stone and later Duolingo to examine their products, and as far as I can tell he hasn't published yet, but maybe I'm just missing something. Has anyone seen anything more than just the headline figures in the LanguageZen marketing?

Cheers.

Very mich appreciated. My Google-fu is weakening with age, it would seem. Time was I would have found something like that in a matter of minutes. :-(
