### 1/5 — No

*2025-06-18*

Didn’t like it

### 4/5 — Basic lessons but effective

*2019-11-20*

This app is easy to use. Within one hour, I pretty much had everything memorized and can read and write all the alphabets. The flash card like quiz speeded everything up. I guess it would be nice if they had lessons maybe in translating words or other writing sentences, but I’m glad I was able to learn the basics quickly.
