World Cup Language Challengers Make a Public Video Pledge and earn an extra 50ITC

World Cup Language Challengers Make a Public Video Pledge and earn an extra 50ITC In our  last language challenge, we found that: 85% of the Challengers who actually put up a Public Video Pledge actually completed the Challenge (compared to only 48% of those who did not).  (See the previous Challenge Review) So were offering this bonus again to help you complete the Challenge! (and also because were cool like that!) If youve signed up for the 2014 italki World Cup Language Challenge, were giving away even more  ITC to motivate you to succeed!  Do you really want to complete the challenge?  Use peer pressure (in a good way) to help yourself achieve your language learning goal! Life Hacks research has shown that if you put yourself up to something by doing it in public, you follow through because others are watching. Things that you put on the Web have a better chance of getting done! BONUS 50ITC!
