Tutor-Student Program

As part of a continued effort to expand the Dragon Language and the community here, we've started  a tutor-student program.  Tutors are paired with one or more students who are looking to learn the Dragon Language hands-on.

As they learn, each tutor-student pair takes on a Dragon Language-related project, either proposed by the student or the tutor that they both agree upon.  This project could be:

  • Translating an existing work into the language.
  • Translating something from the language,
  • Writing something new in the language: a story, a song, a historical record, etc.
  • Writing a special lesson, essay, or analysis on the language.

​These are just some ideas.  The tutor then helps the student with their project, and when all is said and done, the final result is featured on the front page for the community to see.

Tutors include myself, RegalDragon, and ASTORKiT.  If you have interest in tutoring, let me know.  There will be some kind of competency translation test, but don't let that intimidate you if you really want to tutor.

If you're interested in being a student, reply here with what you'd like to learn, and a project proposal if you'd like.  Once a spot opens for tutoring, we'll let you know right away who you'll be working with.

I would like to be a student, and I can't seem to get the table on lesson 2 (All all memorized). Also, I'd like to learn the most common/most generic words, and the dovah alphebet.

Thanks!

Unfortunately I don't have time to tutor over Skype, but PM me what you'd like to learn about, and I can draw up some practice questions and examples to look over.

Drem Yol Lok, In Paarthurnax. I am interested in learning the basics of Dovahzul and wish to become a student. Wanted to try something new ^^ and the language is very fascinating to hear about. 

Thanks!
