There is no rush and you can use Duolingo at your own pace. Pros What I liked the most about this software is that it will always remind you daily to keep practicing what ever language you're learning. Their lessons range from the alphabet, words, sentence examples, and pronunciation. Cons What I feel that could be improved is adding a writing feature into it as well if someone is interesting writing out the language that they're learning. Review Source Roxana Georgiana I. Installation coordinator Computer Hardware Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Recommend it for refreshing the language " August 25, 2021 5.0 Helpful and funny Pros I tried to learn German with duolingo and it really gave me flavor of the language. It’s good for starters but you really need to practice a lot. I like the gaming idea and the fact that gives the opportunity to learn some words related to a topic as a supplement. For example you can learn some vocabulary necessary for a date. Cons To learn a new language in reality you need to practice a lot, hear it more often and it is not limited to a vocabulary. The app might be considered an activity book for those who are studying a new language. Review Source Gabriele V.

È possibile esercitarsi in ogni luogo in cui ci si trova anche per poco tempo Cons Ogni tanto si ripetono degli argomenti e bisogna rifarli Review Source Giacomo G. Insegnante e Libero Professionista Professional Training & Coaching Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Per i ripassi..." June 30, 2023 4.0 Pros Duolingo è da sempre una delle app che più suggerisco per tenersi in forma a padroneggiare le varie lingue; non potrà mai sostituire un vero e proprio insegnante, ma può essere utile a rinfrescare la memoria e per imparare piccole frasi in caso di viaggi all'ultimo minuto. Cons Duolingo purtroppo è solamente adatto per chi vuole fare un ripasso, a mio avviso se non si hanno le vere e proprie basi potrebbe risultare difficile a lungo andare imparare davvero una lingua.

Pros El que puedo aprender mediante peliculas reales o series que en algunas veces son mis favoritas y eso hace que el enfoque de aprender sea mayor. Cons Solo un poco la cuestion que se demora en pasar a los ejercicios. Review Source SG Stephany G. Cantora Artesa Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Fun and easy to learn tool." June 4, 2024 5.0 The learning trails keep me hooked at every stage. I learn quickly, practically and with fun. I like it a lot. Pros An app that's like a language school. It's easy to learn, and it's fun, because the stages and the learning path keep you hooked on the app. Cons The cost could be a little lower, but I understand, because as I said, the learning is comparable to face-to-face schools. It's just as good. But because it's an app, it could be cheaper. Review Source SJ Shujaat J. Tutor - Experienced E-Learning Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Review based on Own Experience! " July 28, 2022 5.0 Happy to experience, very convenient for language learning, comfortable to maintain its dashboard. Pros interface, languages list as per convenience, its levels are much competitive. Easy to maintain its dashboard... Cons Little delays in Speech recognition, skills tend to limiting and translation may confuse rarely. Alternatives considered [Google Classroom](https://www.capterra.com/p/186631/Google-Classroom/) Reason for choosing Duolingo New to experience and best for language learning Review Source Tiago M.

Pros Duolingo has turned learning languages into a fun, game-like experience. There are a lot of languages you can choose, and it makes it easy to practice at any time in any place. The lessons are short, and you can choose not to use the speaking function, in case you are in a place where you can't talk. Cons While it's a fun way to learn new languages, I find the process somewhat slow. I believe it's easy to lose some motivation to keep up, as you might feel you aren't making any real progress.

Pros Ferramentas que facilitam o aprendizado, em idiomas além do inglês, podendo estudar de qualquer lugar! Cons A falta de interação com professores, e algumas explicações mais específicas, em relação a gramática dos idiomas! Alternatives considered [Babbel for Business](https://www.capterra.com/p/234859/Babbel/) Reason for choosing Duolingo Por que é uma ferramenta que contribui com o meu trabalho sem um certo custo, Já que o necessário ele supri!

Manager Education Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Have fun learning a new language" March 16, 2023 4.0 At the beginning I only used the website, but as I progressed I realized that I needed to download the app on my cell phone to continue advancing, since I love the learning method used by the application, which in the end you don't feel it as an obligation but rather you have fun learning. Pros The application is easy to use, and you will earn points for each level you advance, which will motivate you to learn more and practice every day. Cons In some levels it is very repetitive so I suggest adding more vocabulary to increase the level of learning.

Pros cette application m'a beaucoup aidée à améliorer ma compréhension écrite en Anglais. pour avoir les bases et parler couramment cette langue qui était devenue un peu difficile pour moi au file du temps. Cons je suis de nature paresseuse donc aller sur Duolingo tout les jours je ne le faisais pas et j'avais des notification. aussi lorsque tu ne trouves pas bonne réponses tu recommence ou tu perds les points.

Cons Repetição de processos e questões. Falta um pouco de variedade. Review Source LB Lynn B. Writer Writing and Editing Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Good starting point but no customer service" January 6, 2024 2.0 Good attempt at learning, but non-existent customer service gives this program a 2 thumbs down. Pros Looks easy, and interface seems simple enough. Lower price than other language learning courses, screens are generally not too busy and very clean. Somewhat easy to get around and straight forward clicking on tabs makes it more easy to use. Cons No customer service, they do not reply to questions. For example, I purchased a year with understanding I would not be required to purchase in-app tokens - this was not true, nor not mentioned before buying. Furthermore, after a few sessions, I wanted to cancel, but found out once you pay, you cannot get your money back. You have to wait one year before that can happen. Because there is no communication, if you fall for the sales pitch, your done. Review Source Giuseppina E. Moderatore Chat Public Relations and Communications Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Caruccia" June 20, 2023 3.0 Pros Duolingo è una di quelle applicazioni che a mio avviso sono sempre utili da avere, per il semplice motivo che le altre lingue non vengono spesso usate nel quotidiano, e almeno così uno fa ripasso. Cons Secondo me dovrebbero insegnare le cose per bene, magari con mini lezioni, anziché riempirti di frasi prefatte senza spiegare il perché (esempio) un verbo si coniughi così.

Now I am on my 112 days strike path of learning Italian :) Pros easy to use, you can even learn for free with limited version which is already quite extensive for normal pace of learning Cons I dont like to be disturbed by advertisements - but you can my unlimited access without it and it is not expensive.

Pros Es una aplicación muy fácil, interactiva e intuitiva de usar, te puede enseñar desde lo básico hasta cosas más avanzadas, con ayuda de imágenes, audios y textos fáciles de entender, puedes practicar la pronunciación, la idea de las ligas hace que te pongas algunas metas para mejorar y superarte, y la sección de "Cuentos de Duolingo" me parece una muy buena herramienta para poder escuchar conversaciones de situaciones reales. Cons Algunas notificaciones pueden ser molestas y vienen activadas, también que algunas opciones para aprender algunos idiomas no están en la lengua materna y se requiere de un idioma extra.

Pros I loved it, because you can practice a new language writing, listening, spelling and all together. Also, the sections are organize for you keep learning daily. I like when send you a notification for study a new lesson, and how is easy for keep as a routine. Cons Well, In Duolingo you can obtain gems for buy some extras resources such as themes, and gadgets; sometimes, Is expensive and you can't buy it. And the plus version quit ads, and give you more facilities for lessons. but I don't think is necessary for the price. Another problems is the level of languages. For be C1 (advanced) Duolingo isn't enough.

Pros Despite knowing English, I started from the basics, and I was able to observe that it is a very efficient method of learning new languages, and I even recommended it to many people.
