Idea: Personalize the site

Submitted By:

I’m Daniel and I live in Brazil. Our spoken language here is Portuguese. If you look around the site, you are gonna see not so much brazilians tutors and students. Brazil is huge country with a 196,342,587 population and 67,510,400 users of internet. If you search on brazilian sites, you will notice that there’s a lack of places on the internet we can have classes like edufire provides. It’s an unexplored field and you could make more money here. The big problem is that your site is totally in English most of brazilians don’t speak English. My point is that you should create your site based not just on english but in another languages, giving support and advertising for get more users from here. I could work for you, translating the whole site into portuguese. Although English is an important language, not everybody have access to it. You are Certainly loosing a lot of students.
Best regards

Well said Daniel:-) It's ages I am asking the admins for it and also offered to translate the website into French and Italian ( I am a professional translator). English is the most studied language in the world but it's NOT the most spoken as a mother tongue. 5 stars for me;-)

When you wrote "personalize" in the summary, I didn't realize that you meant "translate". . . so I hope people won't be mislead and will pay attention to your good suggestion! Most classes on Edufire are taught in English, it seems, and the site is in English-- I think that if it were available in more languages, it would have a much broader appeal indeed.

With all the great tutors here willing to translate for free I'm not sure why this hasn't been done yet. Great idea, 5 stars :)
