Language-Learning.net

International WHERE+HOW, longtime publisher of Guides to Language Centres, has launched an online successor, providing free access to "the most comprehensive language schools directory online." The heart of the site is the Language Course Finder, a database of over 6,000 schools in 80 countries teaching 70 languages. Users begin browsing the database by selecting a language from a pull-down menu, then selecting a country where they wish to learn it. Users can then select from a number of variables, such as location (urban, rural, seaside), type of language courses, other activities, special services, and additional programs, to narrow their search. Alternatively, visitors can type in a city or institute where they wish to study. In both cases, the database returns contact information, including a URL when available, and a link to a more detailed listing. When reviewing the site using Netscape, we discovered to our annoyance that all attempts to backtrack to change our query produced a "Data Missing" error, forcing us to start again from the beginning, but this was not the case when using IE. In addition to the database, the main site offers a variety of language learning resources and may be viewed in an impressive number of languages.
