We know first-hand how challenging the road to fluency can be. Sometimes it feels like you’re never going to make it!

Lingogo uses proven comprehensible input methodology to ensure you nail your fluency goals.

Then we help you to keep using and enjoying that fluency so you never lose it.

Why does Lingogo work better than other methods?
Most other apps teach about a language - it’s rules and grammar. Interesting? Sure, but you’ll find over time it does very little for your actual fluency.

Just think about your first language. Are you fluent? Yes. Can you explain all the grammar rules? No. Because that knowledge doesn’t actually affect your ability to communicate.

In contrast, we focus on ‘language acquisition’ - the natural ‘picking up’ of a language to communicate fluently. Numerous studies show that there is only one way this can be achieved - by reading and listening to compelling input you can understand in a low-anxiety environment*.

In short? Reading and listening with Lingogo is where it’s at amigos and e hoa mā, and if fluency is your goal, it trumps those grammar drills every time.
