You can start a streak which is motivating to do the daily lessons. I love the examples and how rules are being explained. Pros The best thing I liked about the app is you can set from which level you start to learn e.g I know basic of language so it will not start my journey from start. Also I really like the examples for lessons to learn, they are really practical and for daily use unlike duo lingo. Cons Sometimes when I make a mistake it does not repeat the same sentence or same phrase to learn it again. Switched from [Duolingo](https://www.capterra.com/p/210401/Duolingo-for-Schools/) One of my friends recommend me this app and after using it I loved it the overall experience and the material used is really good.

Pros I like that there is also a community so you can talk to people that speak the language that you want to learn or your native language -to correct or help people who are learning it-. Cons I don’t like the platform, it can be very confusing and I don’t like the excessive use of stock photos. Also I tried to learn a language that uses a different alphabet (Russian) and the people corrected me with that alphabet when I was only starting so I didn’t understand anything. Switched from [Duolingo](https://www.capterra.com/p/210401/Duolingo-for-Schools/) Because the company I work in gave me a membership.

Pros A existência de uma comunidade de pessoas nativas do idioma que você quer aprender e aperfeiçoar é excelente. Ajuda muito a aprender vocabulário e pronuncia.

People who speak the language we want to learn become our friends. These friends have a lot to teach us. For example, in some exercises we write short texts or make sound recordings.Our errors are corrected by our friends. They assist us in properly speaking and writing. Cons We learn succinct sentences through the software. I wish the sentences were longer. There aren't any stories on the app, which is a problem because I'd like to read some in the language we're studying. and also we can't talk to friends I 'd like to talk to my friends on app Review source Non-incentivized review: any software user can leave a review for any product listed on our site.
