C'mon people, can't learn a language if I can't hear it. ### 1/5 — Very annoying *2016-05-10, version 3.2* There's is an introductory video that has the most annoying music and you can swipe out of it, also musical segments that make you wanna delete app. I did! ### 5/5 — Irishbrigade13 *2015-12-01* спосебо ### 5/5 — Learn Russian Hello-Hello *2015-11-01* This course shows that a language touted as 'difficult' is truly accessible to anyone wishing to use Russian in ordinary situations. ### 1/5 — Freeze, doesn't work properly *2014-04-05, version 3.1* Not worth it! ### 5/5 — Русский *2013-12-20* Ввод Русский И Года. ### 5/5 — Like it *2013-10-06* Enjoying it very much. Easy to follow and remember. ### 2/5 — Buggy and only for intermediate students *2013-09-11, version 3.1* I emailed the developer before writing this, but as they haven't replied I will review it as is. The "Now You Read It!" sections from Lesson 2 onwards are broken, so it won't accept correct answers eg. in Lesson 2 it says "I was in Japan..." and the correct answer should be "...last year", but you have to select "in Europe" to get a correct answer. In lesson 9 it says "People in Japan are..." and the correct answer is "Japanese" but you have to select "Italian"! There are loads of examples, so I don't know how it got through testing. Additionally, unless you are an intermiediate student of Russian, you will not understand the Now You Read It sections since the vocabulary is not from the lesson you just did, it will just start throwing sentences that could mean anything and you won't understand. It also doesn't teach you Cyrillic, you have to work it out from the transliterations. It keeps crashing too. As I was looking for examples of errors now it crashed 3 times. ### 4/5 — Excellent mais... *2013-06-09, version 3.1* La première leçon est gratuite mais PAS les 29 suivantes... Vaut quand même la peine de payer 14.95$ pour les débarrer toutes mais pas 1.99$ chaque. La partie "lecture" est trop difficile (même après 10 leçons) et demeure très approximative mais réalisable. Une partie "dictionnaire/traduction" aiderait, avec les verbes, prépositions et adverbes, pas seulement du vocabulaire. Cette partie devrait être disponible comme 31ème leçon (suggestion aux éditeurs). La partie "écriture" est lente mais la plus utile (pour moi), mais après avoir ajouté le clavier russe via les "réglages". Au global, très bonne interactivité. Pour 2 jours en Russie, pas sûr que ça me sera utile, un guide de conversation aidera peut-être plus à comprendre les menus des restaurants... Je continue quand même (à 60,90 ou 120 minutes par leçon, ce n'est pas cher payé pour une initiation)! ## Frequently asked questions about Learn Russian with Hello ### How does Hello-Hello teach Russian?
