It was the marketing of the app that made me download it! But while it excels at that, it fails at what it set out to do: help you learn a language. As someone who has even been a paid subscriber for a year, I kind of don’t even want to use it for free! I don’t think the levels are designed in a way to make learning easy. While the first two/ three lessons are often at a better pace to build interest, the lessons get so hard and so fast, and all the new information is dumped at you in such a way that it gets hard to keep up and you often end up losing interest. Especially as you level up, the information from previous lessons is not integrated properly for you to remember it or add it to your vocabulary. As someone who had basic knowledge in French, I started with that, then lost interest due to poor pacing and then jumped to Mandarin. Now l am experiencing the same with it, and ultimately have no will to open the app for even two minutes. The application that was meant to make education and languages fun and accessible, fails miserably at it!

This app so far has been absolutely amazing. I’ve had it for ten days and so far nothing has gone wrong. At first I had trouble finding my level of Arabic, but other than that, oui, oui! I’m learning Arabic word meanings and letters in English such as “3” and “2” and “thu” and “dhu” really fast and easily. I’ve learned the difference between “thu” and “dhu” a bit more better. Though I already knew how to read Arabic, Duolingo has helped me do it even faster. Today, I got 3 days of Super Duolingo free, excluding the 2 week trial, and I have absolutely no idea at all how. Thank you so much! I’m not doing music (since I’m not interested) and math (as I’m already quite good at it and I can’t find my level), but using this app has been an absolute pleasure.

Our mascot owl, Duo, is trading in his usual diet of mice for bugs this week. Yup, we’re squashing those pesky bugs to make the experience better for all of you. For more Duolingo news, contests and product releases, follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram @duolingo.
