So, I've been trying to relearn Spanish before our family trip to Spain this summer. My students actually recommended Busuu to me – they're always ahead of the curve with these things! It took me a few days to figure out all the features, why do they hide the settings button there? But once you get the hang of it, it's pretty neat. The best part is that you can record yourself speaking and then native speakers give you feedback. It's like having a teaching assistant in your pocket, but for languages! I've already gotten some helpful tips on my pronunciation. It's a lot better than just listening to tapes, which is what we did back in my day. Definitely a good way to avoid embarrassing myself in front of my family when we order tapas. It really helps you learn from your mistakes, which is something I always tell my students.
Key Features
Get feedback from native speakers on your pronunciation.
Lessons that are easy to understand, even for a beginner like me.
A good way to practice speaking without feeling too self-conscious.
"This is my first time using Busuu and it's wonderful to learn available languages and get corrections from other people."
