So here’s the scoop.

I don’t get paid for any of these endorsements because… well.. duolingo is completely and utterly free. There’s no money changing hands.

DuoLingo lets you practice languages without spending money! French, German, Spanish, English, Dutch, Swedish, Esperanto… you name it, they’ve got it.

When people ask me how they can start learning French, Duolingo is usually one of the first resources that I tell people to try out. Why not? At the end of the day it’s a great way to test the waters and try out a language before you fully commit to it. And my friends who have tried Duolingo returned with nothing but positive feedback.

Today, I’m not just going to recommend Duolingo, I’m going to show you why I do so. And unlike other DuoLingo reviews, I’ve spent hundreds of hours on the program to test every feature (including those for the mobile app).

Not sure what DuoLingo is?

No problem, we’ll address that here as well as what features are beneficial to language learners. At the very bottom of this review we also talk about how fluent you can become in French by using DuoLingo.
