Duolingo Reviews

Perfect for increasing your vocabulary

Pros:

I recommend this to everyone I speak to that wants to learn Spanish. It has really helped me increase my vocabulary.

Cons:

"Spanish" is actually Mexican Spanish on the app... rather than Castellano which is Spain's main and official language. The world is biggerthan America but some companies don't allow for that in your software. I know that i can still input Castellano but when learning new words it's not helpful.

A fun way to learn a language

Comments: I have had a positive experience with Duolingo. I have switched from Duolingo to another platform to increase my ability to instinctively connect the foreign language to words/actions without intermediate english translation steps.

Pros:

I love how accessible Duolingo is! It is nice that there is a free option to test out before upgrading to a paid track. I love how the program is broken down into bitesized pieces. I learned a good basis of a foreign language I had zero experience with before this program.

Cons:

I don't think this way of learning a language is the best option for everyone. This program makes it easier to sound out words and read another language, but doesn't cultivate instinctual understanding of another language. It feels reading and writing heavy and less conversationally based. I think using cartoon characters doesn't connect as well for me.

An easy way to start learning a new language

Pros:

Duolingo offers an easy way to start learning a new language.

Cons:

The pronunciation of the audio in Duolingo is not as natural as human recordings.

Shame this isvso bad and annoying.

Comments: I've had enough of it, I'm off to find an app that can do translation and learning of Frrnchbto English properly.

Pros:

Very little, too annoying with all its mistakes to put up with any longer. And saw no benefits to the app in giving feedback, as it was never improved.

Cons:

Couldn't get French French to English English translation, just sloppy american English, which is so very annoying.

Learn English without having to make any effort.

Comments: It has helped me a lot to make progress with my english. The learning process is really engaging, and it not only helps with writing and reading in other languages but also with correct pronunciation. I find it incredibly comprehensive.

Pros:

It is very easy to use. User friendly. Moreover you can use it in your phone. You don't need a computer

Cons:

If you have an advanced level on the language, maybe it is not the best for you

Best Language-Learning App

Comments: I have found it to be the most effective, engaging and interesting of language apps I have explored.

Pros:

It is easy to use the app. It is a valuable tool to acquire a second language, or enable me to join in a conversation.

Cons:

There are no cons in my opinion. I have tried other apps, and enjoy it the most.

Duolingo, language learning app.

Comments: Duolingo is great, I speak French, but I continue to use Duolingo daily so I can learn new words. My parents speak French and they tend to say words that I'm unsure of, but with a Duolingo lesson, I'm a star at speaking French.

Pros:

I like that I was able to learn a language or some words from a language that I wanted to learn. What I also really liked most about Duolingo was the reminders that they give you if you miss a day or two.

Cons:

You can only learn some words and some vocabulary and it's not really accurate to how the language could be spoken today. Another thing is that Duolingo focuses more on English speakers.

Great for the Whole Family

Comments: We have the Su[er Duolingo subscription and everyone in my family (5 users included in the plan) are on track to feeling somewhat competent in a 3rd language

Pros:

I love how it gamifies learning new languages

Cons:

Sometimes the language suggestions/corrections are not accurate, but overall, I believe my family and I are learning with this app

Duolingo review

Pros:

Duolingo is one of the best apps for language learning. Duolingo is supporting many languages, process of learning is entertaining and motivating.

Overall I don't have negative experience with Duolingo.

Why you should use duolingo

Comments: It is for sure an incredible experience to see how great improvement I have done using the duolingo.

Pros:

I like the most its useful feature that suit perfectly with the level of each individual, providing the best content and a scalable improvement.

Cons:

Sometimes I do not feel comfortable with too much reminder when I stay a without using the app for a while.

Fun and easy to learn tool.

Comments: 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.

Good for drilling lame for learning.

Comments: Low average. The language I’m proficient in, it’s handy if annoying. The one I have some instruction in, it’s good for vocabulary. The one I don’t know the grammar going in, it sucks.

Pros:

The lessons are bite-sized. You can maintain a certain level of profiency with a small daily dose.

Cons:

If you don’t already know the grammar, their pedagogy is awful: scattered, incomplete, and rigid even when wrong. (I suspect plenty of their French, and unnatural English is all too common.). They used to have a discussion section where you could bring up problems, or get explanations of underinstructed areas from the user community. It’s gone now.

Duolingo Connect

Comments: I do not really use this product as part of my work as technical support, I only use this as a personal self-study language learning tool. However, I would still say that it helped me a lot to gain confidence that I can learn languages. It helped me with English and Japanese a lot, and that is very helpful since I work for an international account. I have been using the application since December 2019 and I come and go with using it and I am happy that even though sometimes there is a time that I'm gonna gone for a long time, my account is still there. They kept it and I am happy for that.

Pros:

I learned Japanese using Duolingo, it's funny because I took Japanese when I was in elementary and college and yet I feel like I learn more from the app. It's a good use for self-study users and users who are using it to complement their academics.

Cons:

I am not quite fond of the stories and conversation exercises that you can take and play besides the lesson tests, the reason is some of the words are too advance for beginners.

wonderful program

Comments: My experience was successful... I was able to develop my English and Turkish languages

Pros:

A wonderful program through which I was able to learn the English language and the Turkish language. Its method is easy and enjoyable, and it is given in a gradual manner.

Cons:

I wish all the lessons were free... because they would be more beneficial

interesting way to learn a language instead of studying

Pros:

Using an interesting way to learn languages, like playing a game and completing missions to have a huge sense of achievement.

Cons:

Some of the learning are not really practical, it'll be better if the lessons are actually useful to learn how to communicate to people.

Duolingo makes language accessible

Pros:

I love how accessible and con isn’t Duolingo is and that I can still practice on the go.

Cons:

Duolingo at times the app crashes when I do not have good service.

Great Lessons—Intrusive Ads

Comments: 50/50. Great learning but dreadful marketing. Either make the whole program a paid subscription or split it for users to choose, but don’t harass them.

Pros:

The lessons with listening, composing alternation

Cons:

The unrelenting pressure to try Super Duolingo. It started with “no thanks” options, progressed to pop up ads with a loud voice that disrupted concentration, and finally a three day trial button from which, if you accidentally clicked, there was no way out. The program started with 14 lessons and was decreased to just 3. They were progressively putting more and more pressure to go to Super Duolingo. I did not like this experience.

Good starting point but no customer service

Comments: 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.

Great for getting familiar with a new language

Comments: I find it helpful to pick up the basics of a new language and don't feel completely lost in a foreign country!

Pros:

It's a fun way to kick off learning a new language. The courses are well thought and the repetition helps to consolidate the knowledge. It has a very good design and is easy to use. The community aspect is also motivating.

Cons:

The languages to learn are quite limited if my native language is not English. The progress tracking changed more than once which can be confusing. I also wish there were more in-depth explanations of some theoretical aspects.

Duolingo is the best way to start learning a new language

Comments: Good at some extend considering that the app is free.

Pros:

The interactive experience with users and the fairy tales is an element that makes Duolingo fun for children, teenagers and adults. You also have the possibility to participate in contests and find new friends with common interests in learning a new language.

Cons:

It is not accurate with translations and feedback. As a person who speaks English fluently, I would say that I have found many mistakes specially when I was doing listening exercises. There are many times in which the audio does not work.

Learn a New Language

Comments: I enjoy using Duolingo. It is a great app to learn the basics of a language.

Pros:

Super to easy to use and access anywhere and everywhere. I use Duolingo even on my downtime as it is easily accessible on my smart phone. There is also a large variety of languages to chose from. I have a cousin who learned the basics of Italian before heading to Italy and it made her experience in Italy fun because of it.

Cons:

You obviously will not become fluent in a language just by using Duolingo but it is a great app to use to understand the foundations of a language.
