June 2015 Language Challenge Wrap Up

June 2015 Language Challenge Wrap Up Challenge recap! The June 2015 Language Challenge has ended and it was an amazing success! 55% of challengers completed the challenge! We did an analysis of this Challenge and it was similar to our previous Challenges (2015 New Years Challenge Wrap-Up,  2014 October Challenge,  2014 World Cup Challenge,  2014 New Year’s Challenge). For this challenge: The challenge was to complete 12 hours of language lessons in the  month of June (June 1st to June 30th)  to win a reward of 300ITC! We had challengers from all over the world;  80 countries were represented! Top 5 countries participating : 1. United States of America 2. United Kingdom 3. Russian Federation 4. Australia 5. Brazil And we even had some language learners from the below these countries (wow!): Syrian Arab Republic Puerto Rico Turkmenistan Zimbabwe Trinidad Tobago Angola Libya Venezuela 52 different languages were learned during the challenge. The 5 most popular languages that our challengers were learning were: 1. Spanish 2. English 3. Chinese 4. French 5. Japanese We also had a much greater representation from our less common  languages like: Latvian Belorussian Persian Telugu Cebuano Tamil Other interesting tidbits: 91% of challengers who submitted a Public Video Pledge completed the Challenge! Wow that pretty much means if you make a Public Video Pledge, youll complete the Challenge. One hardcore challenger complete 77.5 hours of lessons! Thats more than and hour and a half  of lessons each day. One of our challengers (Sylin from France who actually speaks more than  30 languages!) learned 15 languages during the challenge! 10% of the challengers were also teachers. 3% just  missed the challenge by one hour or less! Ouch. Also a big congrats to some of our italki staff who finished the challenge like this guy below (again they all get to keep their jobs!)
