Do you want to share your language learning experiences and take the chance of winning an Interrail Global Pass? If you are an OLS member, join now the #OLSCommunityStories video contest!

How to participate

  1. Create a video from 1 to 3 minutes including the following elements:
    • Introduce yourself to the OLS community members: start your video by saying your name, where you are from, where you spent, are spending or will spend your mobility and which OLS language learning community you are part of. You are also encouraged to tell us a bit about how useful OLS is or has been for you, and to include evidence of how you are using OLS ( screenshot, live small demo, etc. ).
    • Choose one of the following topics:
      • Proverbs and sayings: tell us a proverb or a saying in the language you are learning, why you like it, how it may be similar or very different from the ones in other languages you know.
      • Slang, oral or regional expressions: have you found out that locals speak in a different way in respect to what you had learnt in books? Tell us about expressions you discovered only thanks to your mobility experience.
      • The day when it all started: do you remember the magic sparkle that made you take the plunge and start speaking/reading/writing in a new language, although you were still feeling insecure? Was it a friend you met, a book you wanted so much to read or a course you had to take? Tell us all about it and share with us the details about that special moment.
