Am I correct with this translation? Are you ready to learn a new language effectively from home? ¿Estás (están) listo para aprender nuevo idioma efectivamente desde su casa?

Why did you put están? - Seb79, Dec 19, 2010
I can't choose correctly... - EkaterinaQ, Dec 19, 2010
It is estás . Están would mean , 'they are', so you would be issuing a statement rather than asking a question. - Seb79, Dec 19, 2010
Thank you very much! - EkaterinaQ, Dec 19, 2010

Hi EkaterinaQ:
¿Estás listo para aprender efectivamente un idioma nuevo desde tu casa?
If you use usted form,
¿Está listo para aprender efectivamente un idioma nuevo desde su casa?
then it would be está-su casa not estás-tu casa 
Están would be correct if you wanted to address formally to more than one person:
¿Están listos para aprender efectivamente un idioma nuevo desde sus casas?
efectivamente would be better after the verb.
