uTALKDublin Libraries welcomes uTalk, a new and innovative way to learn a language. This programme uses verbal, visual and fun exercises to teach language and increase your chance of success. By stimulating both sides of the brain at the same time, the visual \ memory (right brain) and the verbal (left brain). This dual process improves recall and learning dramatically. Adding a fun element helps release the neurotransmitter chemical dopamine. This keeps you motivated and improves memory recall.

uTalk is used extensively in schools and colleges in the UK. Most importantly of all, students can learn from their source language. To celebrate 25 years of language provision uTalk launched a uTalk app which is available to use on all platforms. It has also worked with Emirates  airlines to provide in-flight language tutorials. uTalk covers over 130 languages through 123 source languages. Levels cover very basic to Intermediate plus.

Access From: Anywhere

Access How: Registration required. You will be given an access code which will enable you to unlock all languages. You can register for uTalk by emailing [email protected] with your name and Dublin City Library card number.
