Honour Roll for April 2012

It was another impressive month as a total of 5 LingQers shot past the 10,000 mark in their activity scores!

First place this month goes to CHR, who led the group with an Activity Score of 23,030! Second place is awarded to manusinistra, who achieved an impressive Activity Score with the help of the Import Vocabulary feature on LingQ... we hope to see you on the list next month, too! In third place, just managing to sneak past the fourth place finisher, is Imyirtseshem.

Challenge yourself this month to spend at least an hour a day with your languages, whether listening, reading, speaking or writing, and watch as your language skills improve over the next 3 weeks!

Provider Awards April 2012

A big thanks goes out to all of our content providers this past month! Nearly 400 new lessons were added to the site during the month of April -- wow!

As our way of saying thank you to our excellent providers, each month we reward users based on how many times their lessons were taken. The more lessons you share and the more popular your lessons are, the more points you can earn!

Not only that, but sharing lessons is a great way to help out fellow members at LingQ. If you've never shared lessons before, now is the perfect opportunity to get started. Who knows, you may even find yourself on the Provider Awards top 25 list some day.

The Objects I Liked In The Shool Museum

Memberwriting

The Objects I Liked In The School Museum

Our school was built in August, 1978. The school year began in October, 1979, and in this school were 1053 students. Valentinas Pocevičius became the first school director. He led it untill 1986. Algirdas Medeikis led from 1984 to 1988. Eugenijus Šaltis was the school director from 1988 to 1993. Algimantas Kaminskis is the head of the school now. The museum is small, but there is so much in it. On the walls are pictures of the old directors, teachers and school events. On the table there is a book where people have signed their names when they have been to our school, and also their gifts are displayed. I was pleasantly surprised because I didn't expect that the school had presidents. In all this time there have only been three. Also, in the photo album I saw the opera singer Liudas Mikalauskas.
I wish it to reised more than once..

Honour Roll for March 2012

Each month, 25 LingQ members with the highest Activity Score are featured on the LingQ Honour Roll. The Activity Score is a calculation of your activities on LingQ, and while it doesn't take into account all of the hours you spend learning a language, it is a good indicator of how much progress you can expect to make.

This month was a close race, with the top two finishers being within a hundred points of each other. Nonetheless, only one user can earn the illustrious gold crown! This month our top finisher is CHR, who managed to put up an Activity Score of 11,251. In second place is rae68, who followed closely behind with a score of 11,184. In third, and less than 100 points ahead of the next contender, is Imyirtseshem.

Well done to the top three and to everyone on this month's Honour Roll!

As we move into April, let's all make an effort to beat our scores from last month!
