I’ve been using duolingo for some time and its been great to build my vocab and grammar, but this is the missing link. Hearing actually Spanish speakers talk at a normal pace in different accents is something I’ve lacked.

This is my third time attempting to learn Spanish and this app is the best app so far. I enjoy the live images.

I love the way this app is set up. It’s very user friendly. The fact that there’s video of people actually saying the words and I see the spelling is definitely a plus. I’ve always wanted to learn how to speak Spanish and now I’m hooked. Great job!

Spanish is also a popular language for music and television. Shows like Narcos and Money Heist have become must-watch TV, and artists like Bad Bunny and Rosalia have taken the music world by storm.
