Discussion AIRLEARN USERS, ANYONE?

Has anyone here been using Airlearn (TL)?

I enjoy learning Spanish on Airlearn. I really like how detailed and organized the lessons are, although I mute my phone while studying because the app’s pronunciation sounds really, really weird. 😭

After checking the Tagalog course, though, I started doubting the app’s accuracy. The Tagalog lessons are just horrible!!! Aside from the incorrect pronunciation, many of the lessons contain grammatical errors and culturally inappropriate or unnatural language. I’ve lost count of how many slides I’ve flagged because of inaccuracies.

Now I’m wondering: Are there any native Spanish speakers here who have tried checking the Spanish lessons on Airlearn? How accurate are they?

And what about Portuguese? Japanese?

I’d really love to hear from native speakers who have actually gone through the lessons and can tell me how reliable the content is.

P.S. I'm still exploring different apps. So far, I like Busuu for the Spanish pronunciation. For Duolingo, I just don't like it a bit because I'm a sytematic learner. If you could recommend other apps, I'd be so thankful!

Try Natulang. It's the bees' knees when it comes to encouraging speaking. (And systematic.)

Oh wow!!! So, it wasn't just me when it comes to Airlearn's pronunciation. Huhu.

Thank you so much! 💚 As for having books, I've got tons of ebooks but I always end up procrastinating... because my learning style are visual & auditory.

I'll check Lingodeer.

Hahaha. Good for you. I only use Duo for my daily random practice. It helps refresh what I know, but if I'm building my foundation from a scratch.. I just can't with Duo.

I was just asking since I'm new to language learning outside school curriculum, and my post got downvoted. 😭

I am currently on a 180 day streak on AirLearn. I’m actually partaking in multiple languages at once, but specialising in Finnish. Can’t wait for Hungarian!
