Babbel Review – Nothing Flashy, But Good, Trusted Courses At Reasonable Cost
Babbel
Summary
Babbel is an online language-learning platform with over 1 million active users. It’s available on the web, for iOS, and for Android. The app aims to get learners to a conversational level as quickly as possible through the use of a variety of exercises and spaced repetition for review. The courses are well put together and relatively inexpensive; there are 14 different languages available.
It’s well-designed and the content is immediately useful.
The material provided is effective and covers a lot, but isn’t ideal for advanced levels.
The price is relatively low for what’s offered, but you’ll have to purchase each language separately.
I Like
- The content is practical for real-life use
- It’s easy to use
- The lessons are fairly short
I Don’t Like
- The exercises can get repetitive
- The review exercises don’t include grammar concepts
- Speech recognition isn’t the best way to learn pronunciation
