Stories with SPR

It’s really a collection of simple stories with space repetition to help you remember the new vocabulary encountered in the stories. It’s based around the comprehensible input theory of language learning.

Takes a little getting used to at first, but once you get familiar with the way the program works, it’s really pretty good and quite enjoyable.

Probably not enough on its own to learn a language for example you might lead a teacher to practice speaking with as well. Mind you, you probably only want to engage your teacher once you have enough vocabulary to actually hold a conversation about something.

An amazing app/website!

The difference between this and Duolingo is night and day. LingQ in an supura tool for language learning—it’s like language immersion in your pocket.
Duo relies on force—essentially guilting you into language learning. LingQ is for those who know they want to learn already and are imbibe the language as much as possible through heavy exposure.

Dear user, thank you very much for sharing your valuable & useful feedback. We’re glad you’re enjoying LingQ!

I really wanted to like this app!!

It has great tools to help someone learn Castilian Spanish, but not from Latin America/Mexico. It does seem like it has some breakdown, but not enough. If you want Castilian Spanish, this is a great app! Otherwise, not so much. If the creators added more Latin American Spanish words, I would 100% subscribe again!

Thanks for your great review and for the feedback. We offer a filter for European and Latin American Spanish, over time we should increase the amount of filters. Stay tuned! If you have any other questions, email me at tiagor@lingq.com

Amazing resource

I have used many language learning apps and programs. This is one of my favorites. There are so many interesting articles and resources to practice my listening and increase my vocabulary.

This is the way...

This is an excellent way to learn. You probably need a very basic level in your target language. Lingq is full of resources, inspiration, and aids. Kaufmann is an inspiration. You should also check out Krashen if you are interested in the methodology. Basically a learner cannot realistically learn grammar. Instead, you can read and listen to fun material and the grammar and vocabulary will start to seem obvious, second natural and comprehensible. I love this approach. I have tried before and failed. I am succeeding now.

LingQs

Why don’t you have a separate bar for all created lingQs? It would be very useful

Excellent

Love to be able to listen and read and learn the new words I don’t know by just tapping of them.

Amazing

After having studied for a year and a half, and then becoming sick to the point of having to give up study for almost a year, getting back on the wagon and picking up where I left off was difficult. I had previously used Babbel and then a private tutor who was amazing. But now what? I had slid backwards a bit and was embarrassed to go back to my tutor because I was less than pleased with my backsliding. And how would she know where to pick up with me since I wasn’t at the level I was when I left her? During the sabbatical from studying I continued to read in Spanish, either easy readers, A or B level, or news articles, along with listening to Spanish through Professor Juan on YouTube. Then I discovered LingQ and tried their free intro. Oh, my goodness. Within the free period I realized I was learning at a pace that I never expected. I signed up for a six month block and find I am voracious to continue my learning again. It is interesting, exciting, and it sticks with me. The big thing is to make sure you fully learn the LingQ software. You won’t know how to use it completely in the first week, but then you “get it.” I’m old enough that I hate cellphones and wish for the time when we had the old heavy black telephones with rotary dials and fabric covered cord. I highly recommend LingQ to anyone self-studying, taking Spanish in school, using a private tutor, or anyone shooting for becoming a polyglot and desiring to learn multiple languages.
