Duolingo
review
What about
language level?
Duolingo is designed for beginners. Some tasks are for improving vocabulary and some for practicing grammatical constructions, but grammar in Duolingo is given in an entertaining game form. You have to be able to build phrases, not learn the rules by heart. That's why you can start learning the language at the A1 level!

Introduction
Multilingualism is a staple of every progressive's life these days. The age of the Internet forces you to learn languages and gives you many different ways to do it.
There are a lot of courses for learning foreign languages, but you can't always find the time and money for them. So people are usually looking for something quick and free. For example, Duolingo.

Pros & cons
HOMEWORK & CLASS BEHAVIOR
typical tasks
study material
study material
- guess the meaning of a word (choose the right picture);
- translate the sentence;
- write a sentence by ear;
- read the sentence into the microphone (the program evaluates the quality of pronunciation) - if you want, you can skip these exercises, for example, if you do not feel comfortable talking at the moment.
Tasks can range from listening to pronunciation. In most cases, they are either translations from language to language, making sentences out of the words given to you, or "write what you hear".
my opinion
Duolingo is an educational game, useful to diversify basic lessons, whether it is lessons with a tutor, in courses or independent work on textbooks. It is also a good option for those who have just begun to study a foreign language, but do not know how to start. Duolingo doesn't overload you with unnecessary information, but simply leads you by the hand, helping you learn the basics of the language.
