GBMostly Pros, and a few Cons Pros: I love the immersion method, the ability to navigate back and forth through different word groups and the ability to download on multiple tablets and use the little kid mode for my toddler while still having access to big kid mode for my older child. Cons: Ok so the movies zooming around and changing channels are kind of distracting, and the ongoing music is annoying. I do want my kids to get repetition of Spanish language but the music and dizzying video is over the top. My kids won't use it more than 10 minutes at a time. The other negative aspect is just the price. I can see a lot went into developing the system, but I'd love to see a significantly lower price for year membership.

GBI’m learning Portuguese on Duolingo but… I’m learning Portuguese on Duolingo but after several months in and a purchased 1 year subscription I am told that it isn’t in fact Portuguese from Portugal I’m learning but Brazilian Portuguese. No sign of European Portuguese available any time soon either. Duolingo is very effective though. It makes practice fun.

GBI can't cancel my free trial before it expires There is no clear link or explanation for canceling the subscription before the trial expires. They put you in a loop of email, but no link on how to cancel effectively. I'm very frustrated.

GBI'm delighted with my purchase of… I'm delighted with my purchase of Dinolingo in Latin. I bought it with the hope of introducing Latin to my 4-year-old, making it easier for her in the future. She absolutely loves watching it, especially the dinosaurs and songs. Dancing along to the music keeps her engaged. I highly recommend this program to others with young children.

GBI wish more people knew about this As a long time Duolingo user I've always wished for more language options. Languages like Punjabi and Urdu are so intimidating to me for their pronunciation and scripts alone. It's important to recognize that these are skills that take time and patience to learn, even as an adult. Duolingo expects too many skills at the start. Dinolingo focuses on the core skills that develop language fluency from the start. If you want to learn a language in a more immersive manner then this is your way to go. Great for kids and adults alike
