Crucially the competition makes learning easy, fun and rewarding. It does this largely thanks to EuroTalk''s Talk Now! range of language learning software ...

The Talk Now! range, which works on both PCs and Macs, motivates children in the same way that gaming software does by awarding points for language ability in different levels of games.

The competition also encourages children to learn by offering prizes. First prize is a family holiday of a lifetime to Africa. There’re also prizes for runners up, in the past these have included an Apple Mac laptop, a Nintendo DS and an iPod.

The overall winner is decided, after a series of knock-out heats, at the competition’s grand final in October in London.

If you’re interested in entering your child or pupil, there''s not long to wait! The competition launches in March and Portuguese will be the first language to be studied. Children who are successful in early heats will also be challenged to learn up to two other languages before the final.
