Why we should work together
I am a french computer scientist and have been a daily Lingq student for a year and a half to study Chinese.
My strength resides in my versatility : from UX design to customer support, from system administration to responsive UI, from ever-learning student to experimented teacher.
I would love to join Lingq and contribute to its growth. My expertise lies on the technical side, but I would also be glad to help on others matters depending on the team’s needs, for example with the diffusion of Lingq toward the francophone language learners or the french course material.
