  • Better than LingQ

    EWA does what LingQ does and more for free. You only have to pay to get rid of ads if you want to, but the free version is already an amazing resource to learn how to read. You can click on a word to translate and save a notecard of a word. You can also drag your finger over an entire sentence to get the whole translation. You should definitely get this app if you want to learn or improve your reading comprehension

  • Fun program!

    I like this app a lot. I waited and got a year subscription for Black Friday and have not looked back!
    The only thing I wish was different is that they would incorporate what you learned from the last milestone into the next, so that you can keep it fresh in your memory and add to each thing you learn. Otherwise, I feel like I’m restarting each time, and have to go back and review info I already covered over and over.

  • Not appropriate for kids, no reinforcement

    This is not appropriate for kids (or even for a mom like myself). There are space aliens in lingerie/underwear, and people naked under the covers after obviously having sex in the movie clips. And that’s not even with the “show adult content” button and selecting that you are under 18! The lessons are generally good, however, there’s little room fo reinforcement of what you have learned later on. Wonderful idea, fun clips (besides the inappropriate ones, that was awkward when my son looked at my screen), but… needs progress and a way where you see what you’ve learned integrated into new lessons. Also, movie clips do not adjust enough to the age you put. Between ages “under 18” and the age range of 30’s, there’s no difference between the movie clips, which I find it not advanced or comprehensive enough for a whole $15/month.

  • pretty good

    pretty good app but it is very inconsistent with its help. It seems like every word may as well be underlined with a translation, because as an intermediate spanish speaker, i noticed words like muchacho will be underlined with a translation but certain difficult verbs will not be. that doesn’t seem to help the beginner nor the intermediate.
    the other advice would be to underline entire verb phrases rather than separating them.
    for example, “ha tenido” would be most helpfully explained as “has had to” rather than separate verb explanations.

  • Promising but maybe not worth subscription

    Let me start off by saying I love the concept of the courses and really appreciate the books. Love that they have my favorites: Pride and Prejudice, and Jane Eyre. I’m surprisingly making good progress with The Little Prince. I’m learning French and even though I said I’m intermediate, the courses are all for beginners; subjects cover basic greetings, colors, numbers, days of the week… things any intermediate and advanced learner already knows. I clicked advance in my settings and saw none of the courses changed. I recommend Duolingo for a challenge. The only reason I’m not asking for my money back is because the books may be worth it.

  • Excellent App to Learn Spanish

    I really like this app and am learning a lot! Whoever came up with this learning concept is a genius. Whenever I’m lying awake in bed and can’t sleep late at night or upon waking up in the morning, I do a lesson or two. And the lessons stick in your head because of the way they present them using popular movies, etc. I’d recommend this app to anyone wishing to learn another language. It’s definitely helping me.

  • Love love love

    So easy to keep going. Usually get really excited and will practice a few days but then just stop. Not with this app. I’m always entertained and loving it Repetition really helps everything stick! Going through the lessons right now but can’t wait to get to the point where I can just read the books on here! Lots of classics to look forward to!

  • Love this app

    I hope to see more books added to this app that include more diverse genres but I know apps grow everyday and I will happily wait for updates. I used to pay for Duolingo and it was alright but I have learned so much more in this app. I think they take a different approach as to how they introduce words and at least for the way my brain thinks it works much better. If you have trouble with other learning apps give this one a try. I love it so much I pay the subscription since I am actively trying to learn another language to go out of the country.

  • Amazing concept. Terrible execution

    I want nothing more than to rave about this app, but unfortunately, despite having purchased a year long sub package, I have been unable to use it for more than 2 hours total in the 6 weeks Ive had access to it. Shortly (or more frequently immediately) after opening the app and trying to navigate ANYWHERE, I get kicked to the page asking me which sub package I would like to sign up for to use the 3 day free trial. I bought the year package back in mid June. I have tried submitting a ticket, however, the app will not let me send the report and gives me a message that “the team is aware of the issue and is already working on it”. I fail to see how that is possible, seeing as I haven’t been able to send the ticket in the first place. I was then prompted to give a review, and sent in details regarding my issue and not only has the issue not been fixed, I haven’t so much as been contacted by anyone that the issue is even being addressed.

    Mind you, I am not using the free trial. I paid $100 for a year. My hope is that SOMEONE will get back to me about this issue so I can actually USE the product that I have PAID for, but I am running out of patience. For what its worth, the little I have been able to use the app, I was extremely pleased and impressed with the product. It has the potential to be an incredible learning tool….IF I EVER GET THE CHANCE TO ACTUALLY USE IT

  • Too easy

    When you are going through the initial set up of your account, they ask you lots of questions which makes you feel like the content you were going to get access to his tailor-made to what your level has and what your goals are. Unfortunately, after I upgraded to the $15 per month whatever… I was only given access to a bunch of beginner courses. I sent them a message two days ago to see how I can be switched up to a more challenging level of difficulty so that the exercises will actually be worth my time. I’ve yet to hear anything back. As of right now, I have spent about 20 minutes going through pretty simple exercises to teach me very very basic things like how to say “me “ “you” or them or us. Awaiting support….
