• Getting Pimsleur

  I'm in the USA, but when I go to pimsleur.com and click on German, there's a big box titled Premium and has a price of $19.95/month. There's also an All Access box (get all languages) for $20.95/month. Source: about 1 year ago

• If you took and passed a foreign language class in high school/college, how did you do it?

  Before you take any formal language course, go through level 1 of Pimsleur. It’s around 15 hours of audio and should take you about a month to complete, but it really made all the difference for me. Pimsleur is all audio-based (so no accessibility issues to worry about – you can ignore the printed materials) and it really helps jump start your developing good pronunciation and comprehension.

• I’m having a lot of trouble learning Tagalog, do y’all have any tips

  Https://pimsleur.com/ - this, combined with some time around native speakers to correct some of the textbookisms from the course, will get you speaking basic Tagalog comfortably in about two months. You will be able to communicate basic thoughts and it's a great jumping-off point to begin expanding your vocabulary, since you'll have the mental framework to construct correct sentences using new words.

• Anyone Studied in Italy?

  So I started off with Peppa Pig haha because it was very basic - on netflix it was available in Italian, I'm not sure if it is anymore but then I moved on to things I knew super well like Friends and now try and watch Italian reality TV to get used to how people actually speak to each other. So for grammar I would look up stuff on Italianpod101.com I found they explained everything really well, I practice... Source: about 1 year ago

• Now Duolingo has self sabotaged with the new path, what alternatives are language learners considering?

  I'm fine with the new path since I was at the end of the Polish course and it was exhausting, especially since it is a poorly constructed course, which they had started re-writing a few years ago but never finished. I can see why many people dislike the new path. I use clozemaster.com for free for a great way to work on conversational language grammar. It has Mandarin, Cantonese, and Traditional Mandarin. I...

• Any advice on how to effectively use Glossika?

  The same thing for less money and more fun would be Clozemaster but you're not getting a native speaker if you go that route. Source: over 1 year ago

• What is the best way to learn Spanish as an adult?

  1.) Duolingo helps me in just starting a new language. It's good for an introduction to simple vocab and simple grammar but should not be relied on for more complex conversations. I also love using Clozemaster to practice vocab with their matching games and I believe their vocab/phrases are more immediately useful than Duolingo. Source: over 1 year ago
