What You Should Know About Duolingo
Firstly, you should know that duolingo is a digital platform that enables you to learn a new language. It presents users with an app and a website for learning which is accessible for free.
Recent records hold it that the platform offers about 90 language courses in several languages. What do I mean by that? It simply means that a foreign language can be taught while using another language to instruct. So, if you understand French so well, then you’ll have to choose it as your major language and instruction will be given to you in French langage with regards to the new language you wish to learn [e.g Portuguese.]
The Duolingo app is available for download to any Android OS and Apple iOS smartphones. Also, it is available for windows phone and windows 10 mobile phones.
Meanwhile the languages available for English speakers include but not limited to the following: French, German, Russian, Spanish, Swedish, Danish, Dutch, Mandarin Chinese, Japanese, Italian, Irish, Turkish, Brazillian Portuguese, Greek, Romanian, Swahili, Hawaiian, Hindi, Norwegian, Vietnamese, Arabic, Indonesian, Punjabi, and more.
Unlike some language learning apps, Duolingo provides opportunity for other languages to learn English as well as any other language made available in the app. However, the options in this category are very limited. A good example is the Catalan and Guarani that is only available to Spanish speakers.
As said earlier, this particular duolingo review is crafted in a unique pattern. Firstly, I tried to explain the things you need to know about duolingo and at this point I can guess the question already bubbling up in your head and that is How does the platform work?
How does Duolingo work?
One of the pros of duolingo is that the learning style uses visual and audio approach. Also, the platform is organised to help learners graduate from simple modules to complex modules. The idea is to use the simple modules in preparing the learner for the more advanced more modules.

There are about 25 levels in each course. But, before you can start learning a new language, you must first and foremost create a profile and select a language of choice.
Until recently, all languages are learned online but with the introduction of the Duolingo plus [upgraded paid version]. Users can now download video tutorials for offline learning. The upgraded version cost about $9 per month with a discount if you subscribe for a year.
In order to make the exercise entertianing, the are rewards at the completion of each modules. These rewards comes in form of in-game currency called ‘lingots’ which can be used to buy features and more exercises.
