I used Baselang last year but quit earlier this year when the site was flooded with new students and it became impossible to book lessons with my favorite instructors. Do you know if that has eased up? Are you doing the skill building activities within the DELE curriculum or Real World? I don't remember Real World having skill building activities but wonder if they've merged programs, seemed like they were heading in that direction.
Hi Clara! Thanks so much for stopping by my log! I wish I could tell you whether the flood of new students has thinned out. My schedule changes every day so I often book at the last minute. I don't always get to choose instructors, but I get practice which is the most important thing to me right now. The Skills Improvement activities make up (in my opinion) for any disappointment I might have with an instructor's skills. They require me to read, write, speak or listen about a wide range of topics. As far as I know, the DELE and Real World have yet to merge officially. The Skills Improvement section is within DELE, but possibly Real World has something similar? I didn't spend a lot of time in the RW curriculum. If you'd like me to check the RW page for you, just let me know. I'd be happy to.
