A Looking-Glass View of the
Language Barrier.
The language barrier is perhaps even
more responsible than religion for generating misunderstanding and mistrust
thoughout the world.
It's common knowledge that native English speaking cultures are apathetic
when it comes to learning languages - presuming that the rest of the world
who don't speak English, should automatically try to converse using our
language - rather than the other way round!
In fact more Spanish is spoken across the world than English.
If your native language is English, Looking-Glass recommends that you
exercise a cultural respect towards the country you are visiting by trying
to learn their language. Not only will you be respected for your
efforts, but you will also find yourself absorbing and understanding new
perspectives on their cultures and customs.

More about Linguaphone
Established in 1901, Linguaphone
was a pioneer in self-study language learning. Being the first to recognise
the potential of the wax cylinder, and later records, Linguaphone courses
allowed language learners the opportunity of learning at their own pace
using original recordings supported by Linguaphone's solid methodology.
In both the classroom and via its self-study programs, Linguaphone has
played a dominant role in language-learning across the globe ever since.
The international network has always comprised a selection of subsidiary,
joint venture, as well as third party distribution companies. The network
was first expanded during the 1930s and today Linguaphone sells its
products in over 60 countries.
