Living Language Online Course Review – Not Very Good
Living Language Online Course
Summary
UPDATE – it appears that the online course Living Language no longer exists. This review covers the old course when it did exist. You can however find a series of books with this name available on amazon.
Though the information itself is useful, Living Language’s presentation reads more like a database than an educational/interactive tool.
Again, a lot of the information is there, but it’s scattered. Additionally, some of that information appears incorrect.
Cheaper options offer the same amount of content with more interactive features.
I Like
- You can hop around between levels and topics, including Beginner and Advanced materials.
- The subscription comes with a grammar guide, glossary, and forum access.
- There’s a decent variety of games, including some games I hadn’t played before.
I Don’t Like
- Although the games are fun, they get stale pretty quickly. It’s easy to guess at answers, thereby completing levels without really having learned.
- The system doesn’t keep track of your mistakes, so it’s hard to know what areas you need to improve in.
- I found several translation and presentation errors that made me question the rest of the material.
Price
An annual plan costs $150, and half a year costs $75. Three months is $50 and 1 month is $39.
An Overview of Living Language
Living Language offers you the opportunity to choose between over 20 languages. Once you pick your language, you’re taken to the home screen which has options for Essential, Intermediate, and Advanced categories. You can start with any of these options and jump back and forth between them.
