As a language professor for over 40 years, I decided I was wasting far too much of my time on political websites, which is useful to me only to practice my self-expression. So I decided to try the DuoLingo course in German for English speakers. I was greatly impressed. If my students had spent as much time with Duolingo as they7 did with my classes, I am sure they would have actually learned MORE. This is because this app takes note of the words you have forgotten and recycles the questions back into those it is asking you. It gives the pronunciation with both a male and a female speaker, and it has a variety of different ways to drill your knowledge in a clear and non-threatening way.
I don't think it will be 100% effective in making me a conversationalist in German, but I think with a good textbook after I complete the Duolingo course, I will be able to make myself understood in standard German.Yes, I know there are several varieties of the language.
There is a Spanish course as well, which is why I am posting this.
I suggest that if you have been meaning to learn espa?ol and have not found something that really works, give this a try. It is available on andropid smartphones as well as PC computers. There is a lot of stuff about it on YouTube. Paul likes it. Who is Paul? Paul is a youtube language junkie.
