The good thing about the digital era is that you can learn a new language or skill online. Thanks to the mobile apps you can be on the subway, bus or taking the sun and learn something useful!

From English courses to more complex ones such as Japanese, Russian, Arabic or Farsi. Whether you want to have a basic conversation on your next vacations or learn a more technical level for business. Learning a new language is always an advantage!

Look at these new apps and start taking advantage of your free time!

 

Duolingo

It is for far our favourite app! Thanks to it you will have the feeling to be playing while learning a new language! In this app you have lives, so every mistake you will be losing one. After three mistakes the game is over and you will have to start again! Learn to write, translate and extend your vocabulary by playing! We promise in no time you will be addicted to it!

 

Busuu

It is a paying app but you also have a limited free version that it is pretty good to start with! The paid version is much more complete you will have in addition to the basic written exercises, vocabulary and audio, it also has exams and a certificate. The dynamics are similar to Duolingo and, although in the free version you can only choose a language, in the paid version you have the option to choose them all: English, French, German, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Turkish, Chinese, Japanese, Arabic and Polish.

 

Memrise

We like it because it’s free, it’s original and has more than 170 languages. The difference with other apps is that you can choose the time you want to spend, from 5 minutes a day, 15 or 45, depending on how busy you are. It also has a points system, dictionary and, at the end of each lesson you can compare your grades with others users an be ranked. The most original part of this app is that it has images that can be uploaded by the same users, you can follow people and be followed.

 

Babbel

The exercises of the course are quite traditional, although it has some characteristics that we love. For example, that has the option of practising languages adapted to different situations: vacations, work, colloquial language, idioms, etc. It also has a forum and a community where it tells you the native language of the users!

 

Hellotalk

If you want to improve the real-time conversation this app is the right one for you! Learners are put in contact with native speakers so you can converse with them by text messages and voice notes.
The best thing is when you find another user wanting to learn your mother tong! It is a really interactive and personal way of learning a new language!
