The joy of learning a language - Just do it!
Learning a language is a very rewarding experience which requires consistency and time. Read about UN Volunteer Mary-Sanyu Osire’s experience with Rosetta Stone.

Conditions of use: language & monthly learning requirements
- Assess your needs carefully and commit to learning a specific language - only 1 change of language is permitted during the entire course.
- We expect you to dedicate a minimum of 4 hours per month to the program, which is just 15 minutes every other day.
- Non-compliance will result in immediate deactivation and your license given to another volunteer without warning.

Tracking Usage
Please see guide on how your time is tracked in Catalyst and practical tips to ensure you are hitting your monthly usage goals of 4 hours per month. Time spent in the Rosetta Stone Language Training application is counted towards your program usage report. Usage is only tracked while you are actively engaged in a learning activity.
