The way Duolingo is set up is it’s as easy or as difficult as you want to make it but that part isn’t gamified and really takes self motivation. Duolingo doesn’t prompt you to repeat back what you’re hearing but I’ve found for me personally, repeating back those words is very effective with memorization. The words are also read out to you, which is helpful so you’re exposed to pronunciation and accents.
As you advance will have to pick out the correct word among a few others. You’re shown some words then click what they mean with audio prompts throughout. Depending on the language level your entered in the beginning, you’ll go through lessons which use a few different methods to teach. There are bright colors, buttons, and all you have to do is hit start to being. The layout of Duolingo’s language lessons itself are like a game. Even if you’re not particularly competitive, it does work to motivate you not to miss lessons. Then you can track your daily progress and see where you’re ranked against other language learners in the same language. To keep track of all those stats you have to create a free account. Expect an automated reminder email if it looks like you might miss a day. You get notifications daily to make sure you’re practicing everyday and Duolingo keeps track of your daily streak. XP points are basically a weighted point system for various language lessons and you can set a daily goal, with 30 XP being roughly equivalent to about 15 minutes per day. Duolingo is based on what they call XP points. It’s a very easy, quick set of questions before you’re off to learning. You can start anywhere from a complete novice to advanced and also specify your language lesson concentration – it could be cultural, for travel, or just because you want to learn something new. There are a lot of good reasons to learn a new language and Duolingo is a good start for some of them in some ways.ĭuolingo has a really low barrier to entry, all you have to do is hop on their website or download the free Duolingo app, answer a few questions about the language you want to learn, your current skill level. You might be thinking of learning a new language in the new year or want to learn a few words before an international trip. Duolingo is a popular language learning site and app that comes with the very good price of free, unless you don’t count time.
